Eligibility criteria:

        Inclusion Criteria:

          -  Histologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC (unresectable stage IIIB
             or stage IV). Eligible histologies include adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.
             Patients with recurrent disease after treatment for localized NSCLC are also eligible.
             Cytologic specimens obtained by brushings, washings, or needle aspiration are
             acceptable.

          -  At least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest
             diameter to be recorded) as >= 20 mm with conventional techniques, or as >= 10 mm with
             spiral computerized tomography (CT) scan according to the Response Evaluation Criteria
             in Solid Tumors (RECIST).

          -  Failure of at least one, and no more than two prior cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens
             for advanced disease (either due to progressive disease or toxicity).

          -  Recovery from any toxic effects of prior therapy to <= grade 1.

          -  Completion of radiation therapy at least 28 days prior to the start of study treatment
             (not including palliative local radiation). Previously irradiated lesions in the
             advanced setting cannot be included as target lesions unless clear tumor progression
             has been observed since the end of radiation.

          -  An ECOG performance status of 0-2.

          -  Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1,500, platelets >= 75,000.

          -  Hemoglobin >= 9 g/dL (within 7 days prior to study treatment).

          -  International normalized ratio (INR) <= 1.5 or prothrombin time (PT)/partial
             thromboplastin time (PTT) within normal limits (WNL) of the institution

          -  Serum creatinine <= 1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) within 7 days
             prior to study treatment.

          -  Transaminases <= 3 x institutional ULN

          -  Agreement of female patients of childbearing potential and male patients who have
             partners of childbearing potential to use an effective form of contraception to
             prevent pregnancy during treatment, and for a minimum of 90 days thereafter.

          -  Patients who have treated brain metastases >= 4 weeks out (with surgery and/or
             radiation therapy) and no evidence of CNS progression.

        Exclusion Criteria:

          -  Past or current history of neoplasm (other than the entry diagnosis), with the
             exception of treated non-melanoma skin cancer or carcinoma in-situ of the cervix, or
             other cancers cured by local therapy alone, and a disease-free survival (DFS) >= 3
             years.

          -  Patients who have mixed tumors with small-cell elements are ineligible.

          -  Pregnancy or lactation.

          -  Prior treatment with EGFR TKIs or VEGFR TKIs for NSCLC. [NOTE: prior cetuximab and/or
             bevacizumab use is permitted].

          -  Significant cardiac disease within 90 days of starting study treatment

          -  Myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to initiation of study treatment.

          -  Cardiomegaly on chest imaging or ventricular hypertrophy on electrocardiogram (ECG)

          -  Poorly controlled hypertension

          -  Unstable angina (anginal symptoms at rest).

          -  Cardiac ventricular arrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmic therapy.

          -  Presence of cardiac disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, increases the
             risk of ventricular arrhythmia.

          -  A serious underlying medical condition that would impair the ability of the patient to
             receive protocol treatment.

          -  A major surgical procedure, open biopsy, or significant traumatic injury within 28
             days of beginning treatment, or anticipation of the need for major surgery during the
             course of the study.

          -  Stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) within the past 6 months.

          -  Any prior history of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy.

          -  Pulmonary hemorrhage/bleeding event >= grade 2 within 28 days of study treatment.

          -  Any other non-pulmonary hemorrhage/bleeding event >= grade 3 within 28 days of study
             treatment.

          -  Evidence or history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy.

          -  Serious non-healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture.
