  • Had a hematologic evaluation within 2 weeks prior to study registration (and met the minimum values):
  • Had absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500 cells/microL
  • Had platelet count ≥ 100,000 cells/microL
  • Had hemoglobin ≥ 9.9 gm/deciL (erythropoietin \[e.g., Epogen®\] could have been used to maintain or exceed this level)
  • Had a partial thromboplastin time (PTT) ≤ upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Had a hepatic function evaluation within 2 weeks prior to study registration met the eligibility criteria for bilirubin, Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and alkaline phosphatase.
  • Exclusion criteria

  • Had received prior systemic chemotherapy or vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) or epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor therapy at any time; or had received recent or current radiation therapy
  • Had intrathoracic lung carcinoma of squamous cell histology. (Participants with extrathoracic-only squamous cell NSCLC were eligible. Participants with only peripheral lung lesions (of any NSCLC histology) were also eligible
  • Had cardiovascular diseases and related treatment, including the following:
  • New York Heart Association Class ≥ 2 congestive heart failure; participants with a history of serious cardiac disease not adequately controlled; or a history of myocardial infarction or unstable angina pectoris within 6 months prior to study registration

  • Clinically meaningful peripheral vascular disease, or arrhythmia
  • Inadequately controlled blood pressure (defined as systolic blood pressure \>150 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure \>100 mm Hg)
  • Significant vascular disease (e.g., aortic aneurysm, aortic dissection) within 6 months prior to study registration
  • Therapeutic anticoagulation (Participants receiving prophylactic anticoagulation for venous access devices were allowed providing they met certain criteria)
  • Chronic daily treatment with aspirin (≥ 325 mg/day) or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents known to inhibit platelet function; treatment with dipyridamole, ticlopidine, clopidogrel, or cilostazol was not allowed.
  • Had a surgical procedure in anamnesis (medical history):
  • Major surgical procedure, open biopsy, or significant traumatic injury within 4 weeks prior to study registration, or anticipation of need for major surgical procedure during the course of the study
  • In the case of high-risk procedures, such as liver resection, thoracotomy, or neurosurgery, within 8 weeks prior to study registration
  • Minor surgical procedures (e.g., fine needle aspirations, core biopsies) within 7 days prior to registration
  • Had a serious nonhealing wound, active ulcer, or untreated bone fracture
  • Had a history of abdominal fistula, gastrointestinal perforation, or intra-abdominal abscess within 6 months prior to study registration
  • Had a history of gross hemoptysis (defined as bright red blood of ≥ 0.5 teaspoon) within 4 weeks prior to study registration
  • Had a history of hypersensitivity reaction to drugs formulated with polysorbate 80 or platinum containing compounds
  • Had peripheral neuropathy ≥ Grade 2 (based on CTCAE v3.0)
  • Had known central nervous system (CNS) disease, except for treated brain metastasis. However, participants with CNS metastases treated by neurosurgical resection or brain biopsy performed within 3 months prior to study registration were excluded.
  • Had a history of a malignancy other than NSCLC; exceptions to this included:
  • Curatively treated basal cell carcinoma, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, or localized prostate cancer with a current prostate-specific antigen (PSA) of less than 1.0 ng/dL on 2 successive evaluations at least 3 months apart, and the most recent evaluation being within 4 weeks of study registration
  • History of another malignancy that was curatively treated and no evidence of disease for a minimum of 5 years
  • Had symptoms of a clinically meaningful illness in the 90 days before study registration, or had history of other disease, (such as human immunodeficiency virus \[HIV\] positive, chronic infection \[e.g., pulmonary tuberculosis\], or hepatitis A, B, or C \[active or previously treated\]), had an active infection with fever, had metabolic dysfunction, had physical examination finding, or had clinical a laboratory finding giving reasonable suspicion of a disease or condition that contraindicated the use of an investigational drug, that might affect the interpretation of the results of the study, or render the participant at high risk from treatment complications; (testing for these conditions was at investigator discretion)
  • Had a mental condition rendering the participant unable to understand the nature, scope, and possible consequences of the study
