Purpose
Combining nimotuzumab to gefitinib may not only potentiate cellular cytotoxicity, but may also assist in overcoming inherent or acquired resistance to gefitinib alone.

Primary Outcome Measures:
- Progression free survival rate at 3 months [ Time Frame: 3 months after randomization of last patient ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The progression-free survival rate at 3 months of the patients with no progression of disease or death due to any cause until 3 months is elapsed after being randomized.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Progression free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: 3 months after randomization of last patient ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Progression free survival (PFS) defined as the time from randomized date to the progression date or the preceded date of death date due to any cause.
- Overall survival (OS) [ Time Frame: 3 months after randomization of last patient ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Overall survival (OS) defined as the period from randomly assigned point of time to the date of death due to any cause.
- Overall safety profile [ Time Frame: 3 months after randomization of last patient ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Overall safety profile verified as relevance of adverse events and laboratory abnormality in the study and grades granted based on (USA National Cancer Center) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events such as the type, frequency and severity (CTCAE), v4.0.
- Objective response rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: 3 months after randomization of last patient ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Overall objective response rate (ORR) is the best response rate stipulated as complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) (target lesion and tumor response defined according to RECIST guideline version 1.1) and identified as percentage of the confirmed patients.

Detailed Description:
Reversible EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), such as gefitinib, were shown to be effective in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, patients almost invariably develop resistance to TKIs and have disease progression. Nimotuzumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting the EGFR.
Combining nimotuzumab to gefitinib may not only potentiate cellular cytotoxicity, but may also assist in overcoming inherent or acquired resistance to gefitinib alone.
