Primary outcomes

1. Number of Participants With Any Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), Deaths, and AEs Leading to Discontinuation of at Least One Study Drug, - Treated Population

   Time frame: Day 1 up to 30 days after last dose

   AE=any new unfavorable symptom, sign, or disease or worsening of a preexisting condition that may not have a causal relationship with treatment. SAE=medical event that results in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or drug dependency/abuse; is life-threatening, an important medical event, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or requires or prolongs hospitalization. MedDRA version 14.0. Severity of AEs were graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTC) version 3.0: Grade (Gr) 1=Mild, Gr 2=Moderate, Gr 3=Severe, Gr 4=Life-threatening or disabling, Gr 5=Death. Day 1 (start of study drug) to 30 days after last dose of any treatment therapy, including cetuximab monotherapy.

   Hematology laboratories included hemoglobin, platelets, white blood cell (WBC) count, and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) and values were per CTC grading, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4. On-study laboratory tests were those performed after the start of study drug (from Day 2 of cycle 1) and up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug. WBC normal range: 4.1-12.3 x 10^3 /microliter (µL); platelets normal range: 140-450 x 10^9 /Liter (L); hemoglobin normal range 14-18 grams per deciliter (g/dL); ANC normal range: 2.03-8.36 x 10^9/μL.
