Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1.Prior therapy for advanced or metastatic or recurrent NSCLC. One prior adjuvant, neoadjuvant or adjuvant + neoadjuvant treatment is allowed if at least 12 months have elapsed between the end of the treatment and randomization 2.Prior treatment with other VEGFR inhibitors (other than bevacizumab) 3.Known pre-existing interstitial lung disease e.g. caused by asbestosis 4.Significant weight loss (>10%) within 6 weeks prior to starting treatment in the 1199.82 study. 5.Any contraindications for treatment with gemcitabine and/or cisplatin. 6.Ototoxicity and symptomatic neuropathy > Grade 1 according to the NCI CTCAE 7.Use of any investigational drug within 4 weeks of entering the 1199.82 study. 8.History of clinically significant haemoptysis within the past 3 months (more than one tea spoon of fresh blood per day). 9.Therapeutic anticoagulation (except for prophylactic low dose heparin and/or heparin flush as needed for maintenance of an indwelling intravenous device) or anti-platelet therapy (except for chronic low-dose therapy with acetylsalicylic acid = 325mg per day). 10.History of major thrombotic or clinically relevant bleeding event in the past 6 months. 11.Known inherited predisposition to bleeding or thrombosis. 12.Significant cardiovascular diseases (i.e. hypertension not controlled by medication, unstable angina, history of myocardial infarction) within the past 6 months, congestive heart failure > NYHA II, serious cardiac arrhythmia, pericardial effusion). 13.Surgery within 4 weeks (except tumour biopsy) prior randomisation and incomplete wound healing. 14.Active brain metastases (eg stable for <4 weeks, no adequate previous treatment with radiotherapy, symptomatic, requiring treatment with anti-convulsants; dexamethasone therapy will be allowed if administered as a stable dose for at least one month before inclusion into the study.) 15.Leptomeningeal disease. 16.Radiographic evidence of cavitary or necrotic tumours. 17.Centrally located tumours with radiographic evidence (on CT or MRI) of local invasion of major blood vessels. 18.Radiotherapy (except extremities) within 3 months prior to baseline imaging and radiotherapy for brain metastasis < 4 weeks prior baseline imaging. 19.Any other current malignancy or malignancy diagnosed within the past five (5) years (other than non-melanomatous skin cancer and in situ cervical cancer). 20.Gastrointestinal disorders or abnormalities that would interfere with the absorption of the study drug. 21.Any other concomitant serious illness or organ system dysfunction which in the opinion of the investigator would either compromise patient safety or interfere with the evaluation of the safety of the test drug. 22.Presence of clinically significant third-space fluid collections (for example ascites or pleural effusions) that cannot be controlled by drainage or other procedures prior tostudy entry. 23.Prothrombin time and / or partial thromboplastin time greater than 50% deviation

| Main Objective: Run-in Phase I: To confirm that up to a 200mg b.i.d dose of BIBF 1120, added to gemcitabine and cisplatin, is safe and tolerable added to a standard dose of cisplatin/gemcitabine in patients with stage IIIB/IV or recurrent non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with squamous cell histology. Pharmacokinetics of BIBF 1120 and clinically relevant metabolites, gemcitabine and cisplatin. Phase II: To investigate the efficacy and safety of BIBF 1120 compared to placebo in first line NSCLC patients with squamous cell histology, and at least stable disease after two cycles of cisplatin/gemcitabine chemotherapy. ; Secondary Objective: Run-in Phase I: The evaluation of objective response and best overall response by means of descriptive statistics. Descriptive statistics of plasma concentrations per analyte and time point and of standard pharmacokinetic parameters will also be calculated. Phase II : The analysis of objective response, disease control and overall survival. Duration of objective response and duration of disease control will also be evaluated for patients achieving objective response and disease control respectively. In addition to that Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) questionnaires – namely the QLQ-C30, QLQ-LC13 and EQ-5D questionnaire – will be analysed. ; Primary end point(s): Run-in Phase I: To confirm that up to a 200mg b.i.d dose of BIBF 1120, added to gemcitabine and cisplatin, is safe and tolerable added to a standard dose of cisplatin/gemcitabine in patients with stage IIIB/IV or recurrent non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with squamous cell histology. Phase II: To explore the Progression Free Survival of patients treated with BIBF 1120 added to cisplatin/gemcitabine vs. placebo added to gemcitabine and cisplatin. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Phase I & Phase II: Patients can have a | — |

| Secondary end point(s): Phase I: The secondary objectives for the run-in Phase I part are the evaluation of objective response and best overall response by means of descriptive statistics. Descriptive statistics of plasma concentrations per analyte and time point and of standard pharmacokinetic parameters will also be calculated. Phase II: The secondary objectives of the Phase II part include the analysis of objective response, disease control and overall survival. Duration of objective response and duration of disease control will also be evaluated for patients achieving objective response and disease control respectively.In addition to that Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) questionnaires – namely the QLQ-C30, QLQ-LC13 and EQ-5D questionnaire – will be analysed. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Phase I & Phase II: Patients can have a minimum of 4 and maximum of 6 21-day cycles of BIBF 1120 added to gemcitabine and cisplatin for as long as patients either tolerate the therapy without clinical disease progression, do not meet one of the treatment withdrawal criteria or patient/ investigator request discontinuation of study treatmen. After combination thereapy gemcitabine and cisplatin daily doses of BIBF 1120 as monotherapy can be given until progression of disease or occurrence of Adverse Events which would not allow further treatment of the patients. | — |
