Progression Free Survival (PFS) as Assessed by Central Independent Review Primary · From randomisation until cut-off date 2 November 2010 (when 713 PFS events were observed)

Progression Free Survival (PFS) as assessed by central independent review according to the modified Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) . Progression free survival (PFS) is defined as the duration of time from date of randomisation to date of progression or death (whatever occurs earlier). Median, 25th and 75th percentiles are calculated from an unadjusted Kaplan-Meier curve.

Overall Survival (Key Secondary Endpoint) Secondary · From randomisation until cut-off date 15 February 2013 (approximately 48 months or 1151 deaths among all patients )

Overall Survival (OS) defined as the duration from randomisation to death (irrespective of the reason of death). Median, 25th and 75th percentiles are calculated from an unadjusted Kaplan-Meier curve. A fixed-sequence-testing was implemented for key secondary endpoint if both the primary and the follow-up analysis showed a treatment benefit (P\<0.05) of nintedanib over placebo. In this case, the OS would be tested using hierarchical testing of statistical hypotheses in (1) patients with adenocarcinoma and \<9 months since start of first-line therapy, (2) patients with adenocarcinoma, and (3)

Sponsor's own description

The present trial will be performed to evaluate whether BIBF 1120 in combination with standard therapy of docetaxel in patients with stage IIIB/IV or recurrent NSCLC is more effective as compared to placebo in combination with standard therapy of docetaxel. A secondary aim is to obtain safety information as well as information on quality of life of patients treated with BIBF 1120 in combination to standard therapy with docetaxel. In addition, blood will be collected for pharmacokinetic analysis.
