Brief Summary
The purpose of the Phase 1b portion of the study is to investigate how the body tolerates necitumumab, in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin chemotherapy as first line treatment in participants with Stage IV squamous NSCLC and to determine the recommended dose for the subsequent Phase 2 portion of the study. The purpose of the Phase 2 portion of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of necitumumab in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin chemotherapy in participants with Stage IV squamous NSCLC in a first-line setting.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Phase 1b: Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)
DLT was defined as any of the following events graded according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI)-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0, when the event occurred within 21 days from Day 1 in Cycle 1 and was considered to be definitely or probably related to necitumumab and/or gemcitabine-cisplatin chemotherapy: Grade 4 neutropenia ≥ 7 days, Grade ≥ 3 febrile neutropenia except for transient febrile neutropenia (Grade 3 neutropenia with fever ≥ 38.5 degrees Celsius (°C) for ≤ 24 hours), Grade 3 thrombocytopenia requiring platelet substitution, Grade 4 thrombocytopenia, ≥Grade 3 nonhematologic toxicity (excluding nausea, vomiting, arthralgia, myalgia, asthenia, fatigue, diarrhea, constipation, anorexia), any toxicity leading to the omission of necitumumab on Day 8 or 15 (for participants for whom necitumumab was delayed from Days 8 to 15) during the Cycle 1.
Day 1 to Day 21 in Cycle 1 (Up To 21 days)
Phase 2: Overall Survival (OS)
OS defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause. Participants who are alive at the time of study completion or are lost to follow-up will be censored at the time they were last known to be alive.
From Date of Randomization until Death Due to Any Cause (Up To 39 Months)
Secondary Outcomes (13)
Phase 2: Progression Free Survival (PFS)
From Date of Randomization to Measured Progressive Disease or Death Due to Any Cause (Up To 39 Months)
Phase 1b: Percentage of Participants Who Achieve Best Overall Tumor Response of Complete Response or Partial Response (Objective Tumor Response Rate [ORR])
Baseline to Measured Progressive Disease (Up To 39 Months)

Phase 2: Change From Baseline in EuroQol 5-Dimensional 3 Level (EuroQol-5D-3L) Index Score
Baseline, Cycle 4 (Cycle = 3 weeks)
- +8 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (2)
Necitumumab + Gem and Cis
EXPERIMENTALPhase 1b Dose Escalation: Necitumumab 800 milligram (mg) on Days 1 and 8 of every 21 day cycle, administered as an intravenous (IV) infusion.

Cisplatin (Cis) 75 mg/m\^2 on Day 1 of every 21 day cycle, administered as an IV infusion for a maximum of 4 cycles. Phase 2 Randomized: Necitumumab 800 mg on Days 1 and 8 of every 21 day cycle, administered as an IV infusion. Gemcitabine at fixed dose determined in Phase 1b (1000 or 1250 mg/m\^2) on Days 1 and 8 of every 21 day cycle, administered as an IV infusion for a maximum of 4 cycles. Cisplatin 75 mg/m\^2 on Day 1 of every 21 day cycle, administered as an IV infusion for a maximum of 4 cycles.
Gemcitabine + Cisplatin
ACTIVE COMPARATORPhase 2 Randomized: Gemcitabine at fixed dose determined in Phase 1b (1000 to 1250 mg/m\^2) on Day 1 and Day 8 of every 21 day cycle,administered as an IV infusion over approximately 30 minutes for a maximum of 4 cycles. Cisplatin 75 mg/m\^2 on Day 1 of every 21 day cycle, administered as an IV infusion over approximately 120 minutes for a maximum of 4 cycles .
