Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - cetuximab, cisplatin
Treatment: Drugs - cisplatin

Experimental: cisplatin and cetuximab -

Active comparator: cisplatin -


Treatment: Drugs: cetuximab, cisplatin
Subjects will receive an initial dose of cetuximab 400 milligram per square meter (mg/m\^2) followed by weekly doses of 250 mg/m\^2. All doses will be given by intravenous (IV) infusion.

Subjects will receive cisplatin (75 mg/m\^2 IV on Day 1) every 3 weeks, with a maximum of 6 cycles.

Administration of the Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) will be stopped upon the first occurrence of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent.

Treatment: Drugs: cisplatin
Subjects will receive cisplatin (75 mg/m\^2 IV on Day 1) every 3 weeks, with a maximum of 6 cycles.

Subjects have the option of receiving cetuximab plus cisplatin at progression within the first 6 cycles, or cetuximab alone at progression after the 6 cycles.

Administration of the IMP will be stopped upon the first occurrence of disease progression (except in cisplatin arm where switch to cetuximab plus cisplatin, or cetuximab alone is possible), unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent.
