Inclusion Criteria:



- 18 years of age or older.

- Diagnosis of NSCLC.

- Unidimensionally measurable disease.

- Documented disease progression within 6 months of the subject's last dose of
carboplatin and paclitaxel in treatment arm 1, part 2 of Immunex Protocol 054.0004
(Amgen Protocol 20025404).

- Disease stage IIIB with pericardial or pleural effusion, or stage IV.

- Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks.

- ANC greater than or equal to 1.5 x 10^9/L, platelet count greater than or equal to
100 x 10^9/L.

- Adequate hematology function

- Adequate renal function

- Adequate hepatic function

- ECOG score of less than 2.

- Brain metastases, if present, must be controlled and asymptomatic.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Calcium >ULN (treatment for hypercalcemia allowed).

- Use of any investigational therapy within 30 days of ABX-EGF infusion.

- Any cancer therapy for NSCLC other than paclitaxel and carboplatin per Immunex
Protocol 054.0004 (Amgen Protocol 20025404), such as radiation therapy, surgery, or
steroids.

- LVEF less than 45% as measured by MUGA.

- Symptomatic ventricular arrhythmia or symptomatic conduction abnormality.

- Myocardial infarction within 1 year before first dose of study drug.

- History of cancer that has required treatment or been active within past 5 years,
other than NSCLC, basal cell carcinoma, or cervical carcinoma in situ.

- Women (e.g., of childbearing potential, who are post-menopausal for less than six
months, not surgically sterilized or not abstinent) who are not willing to use an
oral or implanted contraceptive, double barrier birth control, or an IUD during the
