Inclusion Criteria

Disease related

· Histologically confirmed (cytological specimens obtained by bronchial washing or
brushing, or fine-needle aspiration are acceptable), unresectable stage IIIB with
pericardial or pleural effusion or stage IV or recurrent non-squamous NSCLC.
Evaluation of effusions (ie, with cytology) is not required if diagnosis of
non-squamous NSCLC has been otherwise histologically confirmed.

· Measurable or non-measurable disease per modified RECIST criteria

· ECOG performance status of 0 or 1

· Life expectancy of = 3 months as documented by the investigator.

Demographic

· Men or women aged = 18 years old.

Laboratory

· Hematological function, as follows:

- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) = 1.5 x 109/L

- Platelet count = 100 x 109/L and = 850 x 109/L

- Hemoglobin = 9 g/dL

· Renal function, as follows:

- Creatinine clearance (GFR) > 40 mL/min (calculated by Cockcroft-Gault
formula, see Section 6.2.2.2).

- Urinary protein quantitative value of = 30 mg in urinalysis or = 1+ on
dipstick unless total quantitative protein is < 500 mg in a 24-hour urine sample.

· Hepatic function, as follows:

- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) = 2.5 x upper limit of normal ULN OR
AST < 5 x ULN if liver metastases are present.

- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) = 2.5 x ULN OR ALT < 5 x ULN if liver
metastases are present.

- Alkaline phosphatase = 2.0 x ULN OR alkaline phosphatase < 5 x ULN if
liver or bone metastases are present.

- Total bilirubin < 1.5 x ULN OR if total bilirubin < 3 X ULN if subject has
UGT1A1 promoter polymorphism (ie, Gilbert syndrome) confirmed by
genotyping or Invader® UGT1A1 Molecular Assay prior to randomization.

- Partial thromboplastin (PTT) or activated partial thromboplastin (aPTT)

= 1 x ULN and international normalized ratio (INR) = 1.5 x ULN.

Ethical

Exclusion Criteria

Disease Related
• Subjects with adenosquamous histology or an unclear histology subtype
(eg, not otherwise specified) containing greater than 10% squamous cells
• Untreated or symptomatic central nervous system metastases. Subjects with a
history of brain metastases are eligible if definitive therapy has been
administered (surgery and/or radiation therapy), there is no planned treatment for
brain metastasis, and the subject is clinically stable and is off corticosteroids for
at least 2 weeks prior to randomization.
• Prior chemotherapy as follows:
- Any prior chemotherapy for advanced non-squamous NSCLC
- Any prior adjuvant chemotherapy for non-squamous NSCLC within
52 weeks prior to randomization. Adjuvant chemotherapy completed
> 52 weeks prior to randomization is permitted
- Any prior chemoradiation for locally advanced stage III disease
• Central (chest) radiation therapy within 28 days prior to randomization, radiation
therapy within 14 days prior to randomization for peripheral lesions.
• History of pulmonary hemorrhage or gross hemoptysis (approximately 3 mL of
bright red blood or more) within 6 months prior to randomization.
Medications
• Prior targeted therapies, including but not limited to:
- AMG 706, inhibitors of VEGF (eg, SU5416, SU6668, ZD6474, SU11248,
PTK787, AZD2171, AEE-788, sorafenib, bevacizumab), or EGFr
(eg, panitumumab, cetuximab, gefitinib, erlotinib)
• Any anticoagulation therapy within 7 days prior to randomization. The use of
low-dose warfarin [= 2 mg daily] or low molecular weight heparin or heparin
flushes for prophylaxis against central venous catheter thrombosis is allowed.
• Known history of allergy or hypersensitivity reaction to paclitaxel or carboplatin.
General
• Prior (within 30 days of randomization) yellow fever vaccination
• History of arterial or venous thrombosis within 12 months prior to randomization.
• History of bleeding diathesis or bleeding within 14 days prior to randomization.
• Peripheral neuropathy > grade 1 per Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse
Events (CTCAE) Version 3.0.
• Clinically significant cardiac disease within 12 months of randomization, including
myocardial infarction, unstable angina, grade 2 or greater peripheral vascular
disease, cerebrovascular accident, transient ischemic attack, percutaneous
transluminal coronary angioplasty/stent, congestive heart failure or ongoing
arrhythmias requiring medication.
• Any kind of disorder that compromises the ability to comply with the study
procedures.
• Open wound, ulcer or fracture.
• Active infection requiring systemic treatment or any uncontrolled systemic
infection = 14 days prior to randomization.
• Uncontrolled hypertension as defined by resting blood pressure > 150/90 mm Hg.
Anti-hypertensive medications are allowed if the subject is stable on their current
dose at the time of randomization.
• History of other primary cancer unless:
- Curatively resected non-melanomatous skin cancer
- Curatively treated cervical carcinoma in situ
- Other primary solid tumor curatively treated with no known active disease
present and no curative treatment administered for the last 3 years
• Surgery:
- Major surgical procedures within 28 days prior to randomization.
- Minor surgical procedures within 14 days prior to randomization.
- Failure to recover from prior surgery.
- Placement of a central venous access device (including ports and
tunneled or non- tunneled catheters) within 7 days prior to randomization.
- Planned elective surger
