Duration from randomization until radiological progression as assessed by an IRC (based on modified WHO criteria) or death due to any cause.
Only deaths within 60 days of last tumor assessment are considered. Patients without event are censored on the date of last tumor assessment.
- Progression-free Survival Time (KRAS Mutant Population) [ Time Frame: Time from randomisation to disease progression, death or last tumour assessment, reported between day of first patient randomised, 27 Jul 2005, until cut-off date 30 Nov 2008 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Duration from randomization until radiological progression as assessed by an IRC (based on modified WHO criteria) or death due to any cause.
Only deaths within 60 days of last tumor assessment are considered. Patients without event are censored on the date of last tumor assessment.
- Overall Survival Time [ Time Frame: Time from randomisation to death or last day known to be alive, reported between day of first patient randomised, 27 Jul 2005, until cut-off date 30 Nov 2008 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Time from randomization to death. Patients without event are censored at the last date known to be alive or at the clinical cut-off date, whatever is earlier.
- Overall Survival Time (KRAS Wild-Type Population) [ Time Frame: Time from randomisation to death or last day known to be alive, reported between day of first patient randomised, 27 Jul 2005, until cut-off date 30 November 2008 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Time from randomization to death. Patients without event are censored at the last date known to be alive or at the clinical cut-off date, whatever is earlier.

| Experimental: Cetuximab Plus FOLFOX-4 |
Biological: Cetuximab
Cetuximab will always be administered first, followed by oxaliplatin at least 1 hour later. Following completion of the oxaliplatin infusion or simultaneously with oxaliplatin folinic acid (FA) will be administered (at a dose of 200 mg/m^2, infused over 120 minutes, on day 1 and day 2, every two weeks) and then 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) (as a bolus of 400 mg/m^2/day intravenously (IV) over 2-4 minutes followed by 600 mg/m^2/day infused over 22-hour, on day 1 and day 2, every two weeks). Until progression or unacceptable toxicity develops |
