Comparator Agent  Bevacizumab-EU(AVASTIN)   Patients will be randomized to receive either bevacizumab-Pfizer or bevacizumab-EU in a 1:1 ratio. Dosing will be determined based on the body weight of the patient at the beginning of each 21-day cycle. Bevacizumab-Pfizer and bevacizumab-EU will be administered once at the start of every 21-day cycle. The initial dose is 15 mg/kg delivered over 90 minutes as an intravenous infusion. If the first infusion is well tolerated, the second infusion may be administered over 60 minutes. If the 60-minute infusion is well tolerated, all subsequent infusions may be administered over 30 minutes. If during the shortened infusions, infusion related reactions occur, the length of the infusion can be lengthened at the discretion of the clinician. Bevacizumab-Pfizer or bevacizumab-EU will continue to be administered on Day 1 of every 3-week cycle after the chemotherapy has been discontinued. Bevacizumab-Pfizer or bevacizumab-EU will be administered until RECIST 1.1 defined disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, discretion of the investigator, regulatory request, death, or withdrawal of consent occurs. No dose reduction is planned for bevacizumab-Pfizer or bevacizumab-EU.

ExclusionCriteria 
Details  Exclusion Criteria:
Patients presenting with any of the following will not be included in the study:
1. Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) or combination SCLC and NSCLC. Squamous-cell tumors and mixed adenosquamous carcinomas of predominantly squamous nature.
2. Evidence of a tumor that compresses or invades major blood vessels or tumor cavitation.
3. Known sensitizing EGFR mutations (for example, deletion 19 or L858R) or EML4-ALK translocation positive mutations.
4. History of other cancer within 5 years prior to screening for this study, with the exception of adequately treated ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast, cervical carcinoma in situ, or basal or squamous cell skin cancer.

Active uncontrolled cardiac disease, including cardiomyopathy, congestive heart failure (CHF) New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification of more than or equal to 3, unstable angina, or myocardial infarction within 12 months before first dose of study treatment. Clinically significant cardiovascular disease, peripheral vascular disease, transient ischemic attack, cerebrovascular accident.
16. History of severe hypersensitivity reaction to any of the products to be administered during the study, including mammalian cell derived drug products, taxanes, bevacizumab, murine proteins, or excipients in their formulations.
17. Clinical contraindication to treatment with steroids preventing use as part of paclitaxel premedication.
18. Pregnant female patients; breastfeeding female patients; male patients with partners currently pregnant; male and female patients of childbearing potential who are unwilling or unable to use 2 highly effective methods of contraception as outlined in this protocol from at least 19 days prior to the first dose of study medication, for the duration of the study, and for at least 6 months after the last dose of investigational product (bevacizumab-Pfizer or bevacizumab-EU).
Note: For female patients of childbearing potential, to exclude the possibility of pregnancy, a serum or urine pregnancy test with sensitivity of at least 25 mIU/mL will be performed by the local certified laboratory, and 2 negative tests are required before receiving the first dose of investigational product. The second negative test should be at least 19 days after the first, and should be done during the first 5 days of the menstrual period, immediately preceding the first dose of the investigational product. In the absence of regular menstrual bleeding, the patient should have used 2 different methods of contraception for at least 1 month before the second pregnancy test. A patient is of childbearing potential if, in the opinion of the investigator, she is biologically capable of having children and is sexually active. This includes women who are using contraceptives or whose sexual partners are either sterile or using contraceptives.
19. Immunocompromised patients, including known seropositivity for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
20. Known or demonstrated hepatitis infection as listed below. Testing to demonstrate eligibility is required only in countries where regulations mandate testing. In all other countries, testing should be considered if a patient is at risk for having undiagnosed infection (for example due to history of injection drug use or due to geographic location).

a. Hepatitis B infection as detected by positive testing for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb), and hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb).
b. Hepatitis C infection as detected by positive hepatitis C antibody (HCAb).
21. Participation in other clinical studies involving investigational drug(s) within 4 weeks before randomization and/or during study participation. Patients participating in observational studies not involving investigational drug(s) and/or long-term follow up of studies involving investigational drug(s) in which treatment was completed more than or equal to 4 weeks before randomization are not excluded.
22. Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition including recent (within the past year) or active suicidal ideation or behavior, or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study.
23. Patients who are investigational site staff members directly involved in the conduct of the trial and their family members, site staff members otherwise supervised by the investigator, or patients who are Pfizer employees directly involved in the conduct of the trial.

Brief Summary  

This is a multinational, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab-Pfizer plus paclitaxel and carboplatin and bevacizumab-EU plus paclitaxel and carboplatin by comparing the best confirmed objective response rate (ORR) by Week 19 in first-line treatment for patients with advanced (unresectable, locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic) non-squamous NSCLC.

Approximately 399 patients will be enrolled in each treatment arm for a total of approximately 798 patients at over 300 centers. Patients will be randomized (1:1) to receive either treatment of bevacizumab-Pfizer plus paclitaxel and carboplatin or bevacizumab-EU plus paclitaxel and carboplatin

Patients will participate in the study on average for approximately 13 months. This includes about 1 month of screening and at least 1 year for treatment and follow-up. Actual length of participation for individual patients will depend upon the actual duration of treatment. Minimum expected participation is 1 year unless shorter due to death, withdrawal of consent, or early termination of the trial.
