Key exclusion criteria
* Other forms of lung cancer (e.g., small cell, mesothelioma)
* Women who are pregnant or breast-feeding
* Known HIV, hepatitis (B&C), or active tuberculosis
* Had major surgery (central venous access placement and tumor biopsies are not considered major surgery) within 4 weeks prior to randomization; patients must be well recovered from acute effects of surgery prior to screening; patients should not have plans to undergo major surgical procedures during the treatment period
