Brief Summary
Participants with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) will receive a first-line treatment of Pemetrexed, Cisplatin and Bevacizumab as induction therapy followed by a maintenance treatment of Pemetrexed and Bevacizumab. Treatment will continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. The primary objective of this study is to measure how long this treatment could prevent the disease progression.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Progression-Free Survival
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) is defined as the time from the date of study enrollment to the first date of objectively determined PD or death from any cause. PD is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) Guidelines (Version 1.0), as at least a 20% increase in the sum of longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, taking as references the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions. For participants not known to have died as of the data cut-off date and who do not have objective PD, PFS will be censored at the date of the last objective progression-free disease assessment. For participants who receive subsequent systemic anticancer therapy, PFS will be censored at the date of the last objective progression-free disease assessment prior to post-discontinuation systemic therapy.
From enrollment to the first date of objectively determined Progressive Disease (PD) or death from any cause (every other cycle during study treatment and then every 6 weeks during follow-up period)(Baseline up to 36.1 Months)
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Overall Survival
From enrollment to the date of death from any cause (every cycle during study treatment, every 6 weeks during follow-up period until PD, and then at least every 3 Months) (Baseline up to 36.3 Months)
Percentage of Participants With Confirmed Complete Response or Partial Response During Study Treatment (Induction and Maintenance)
From enrollment to objectively determined PD (assessment during study treatment completed at every other cycle till PD and at 30 day follow-up)(Baseline up to 104.1 Weeks)
Percentage of Participants With Confirmed Response Complete or Partial Response During the Induction Treatment Only
From the time of study enrollment to the first date of objectively determined PD during the induction therapy (assessment during study treatment completed at every other cycle up to four cycles) (Baseline up to 4 cycles)
Percentage of Participants With Confirmed Complete Response or Partial Response During the Maintenance Therapy Only
From the start of the maintenance to the first date of objectively determined PD during the maintenance therapy (assessment during maintenance treatment completed at every other cycle till PD and at 30 day follow-up)(Cycle 5 up to 104.1 Weeks)
Study Arms (1)
Study Treatment
EXPERIMENTALInterventions
500 milligram per square meter (mg/m²) given intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for four cycles of Induction Therapy, and continued in Maintenance Therapy until progression or unacceptable toxicity.
75 mg/m² given intravenously on Day 1 of 21-day cycle for a maximum of 4 cycles
7.5 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) given intravenously on Day 1 of 21-day cycle for four cycles of Induction Therapy, and continued in Maintenance Therapy until progression or unacceptable toxicity
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Histological or cytological diagnosis of nonsquamous Stage IIIB or Stage IV NSCLC that is not amenable to curative therapy
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 or 1
- At least 1 unidimensionally measurable lesion meeting the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria
- Adequate organ function, including the following:
- Adequate bone marrow reserve: absolute neutrophil (segmented and bands) count (ANC) ≥1.5 x 10\^9 per Liter (10\^9/L), platelets ≥100 x 10\^9/L, and hemoglobin ≥10 gram per deciliter (g/dL)
- Hepatic: bilirubin ≤1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN); alkaline phosphatase (AP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤3.0 x ULN (AP, AST, and ALT ≤5 x ULN is acceptable if liver has tumor involvement)
- Renal: calculated creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥45 milliliter per minute (mL/min) based on the original weight-based Cockcroft and Gault formula, and serum creatinine ≤1.5 x ULN
- At the time of enrollment, if the urinalysis dipstick result is ≥2+ for protein, a 24-hour urine collection should be taken. In these cases, participants must have ≤1g protein/24 hours to be eligible for study participation
- Participants must sign an Informed Consent Document (ICD)
You may not qualify if:
- Have received prior systemic anticancer therapy for lung cancer (including adjuvant early-stage treatment for NSCLC)
- Have a serious cardiac condition, such as myocardial infarction within 6 months, angina, or heart disease, as defined by the New York Heart Association Class III or IV
- Have a second primary malignancy that is clinically detectable at the time of consideration for study enrollment
- Have known central nervous system (CNS) disease, other than stable, treated brain metastasis. Stable, treated brain metastasis is defined as metastasis having no evidence of progression or hemorrhage after treatment and no ongoing requirement for dexamethasone, as ascertained by clinical examination and post-treatment brain imaging (Computed Tomography \[CT\] scan or magnetic resonance imaging \[MRI\])
- Are receiving concurrent administration of any other antitumor therapy
- Have a history of gastrointestinal fistula, perforation, or abscess, inflammatory bowel disease, or diverticulitis
- Have had significant weight loss (that is, ≥10%) over the previous 6 weeks before study entry
- Have a history of gross hemoptysis (bright red blood of ≥½ teaspoon per episode of coughing) \<3 months prior to enrollment or history or evidence of inherited bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy with the risk of bleeding
- Are taking or have recently taken (within 10 days of enrollment) full-dose oral or parenteral anticoagulants or thrombolytic agents for therapeutic purposes. Prophylactic use of anticoagulants is allowed; international normalized ratio (INR) should be \<1.5 at study enrollment
- Have a history of hypertension, unless hypertension is well controlled upon study entry (≤150/90 millimeter of mercury \[mm Hg\]) and the participant is on a stable regimen of antihypertensive therapy. Participants should not have any prior history of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy
- Have had major surgery, open biopsy, or significant traumatic injury within 28 days prior to study enrollment, or anticipate the need for major surgical procedure during the course of the study
- History of thrombotic disorders within the last 6 months prior to entry
