Bevacizumab With Abraxane in Patients With Recurrent Ovarian/ Peritoneal Cancer

Overview[ - collapse ][ - ]

Purpose The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and tolerability of the combination of bevacizumab and Abraxane in the treatment of women with epithelial ovarian cancer or peritoneal cancer. The study will also evaluate how the patient's quality of life is during their treatment.

Current Primary Outcome Measures6-month Progression-Free Rate [Time Frame: 6 months after initiation of study treatment] [Designated as safety issue: No]Progression-free rate is defined as the percentage of participants with no progression event at 6 months after starting study treatment. An event for this endpoint was defined as a progression-free survival event occurring earlier than six months, or discontinuation of treatment earlier than six months for any other reason. Progression is defined per RECIST criteria v1.0 as a measurable increase in the smallest diameter of any target lesion, progression of existing non-target lesions, or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions.
Current Secondary Outcome Measures
  • Best Overall Response [Time Frame: Radiologic imaging was repeated after every 3 cycles (about every 12 weeks) during study treatment, up to 31 months.] [Designated as safety issue: No]Radiologic imaging was scheduled to be performed at baseline, after every third treatment cycle, and at the end of treatment or time of progression unless it was done in the previous four weeks. Response was evaluated using RECIST version 1.0 guidelines, where complete response (CR) is the disappearance of all target lesions; partial response (PR) is >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; overall response (OR) = CR+PR.
  • Overall Survival [Time Frame: Overall survival is defined as the time from treatment start until death from any cause, assessed up to 40 months.] [Designated as safety issue: No]
  • Progression-free Survival (PFS) [Time Frame: PFS was measured from day 1 of treatment until time of progression (assessed every 12 weeks) or death, whichever came first, assessed up to 30 months.] [Designated as safety issue: No]Disease progression was determined through radiology imaging measurements and by clinical or symptomatic progression during or after treatment. Progression is defined per RECIST criteria v1.0 as a measurable increase in the smallest diameter of any target lesion, progression of existing non-target lesions, or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions.
  • Best Overall Response at Six Months [Time Frame: Assessed over 6 months of study treatment] [Designated as safety issue: No]The outcome measure assessed the percentage of participants who had achieved either a Partial or Complete Response over 6 months of treatment. Radiologic imaging was scheduled to be performed at baseline, after every third treatment cycle, and at the end of treatment or time of progression unless it was done in the previous four weeks. Response was evaluated using RECIST version 1.0 guidelines, where complete response (CR) is the disappearance of all target lesions; partial response (PR) is >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; overall response (OR) = CR+PR.

- Current, recent (within 4 weeks of the first infusion of this study), or planned
participation in an experimental drug study other than a Genentech-sponsored
bevacizumab cancer study. Patient must be bevacizumab naïve.

dipstick urinalysis at baseline should undergo a 24 hour urine collection and must
demonstrate ≤ 1g of protein in 24 hours to be eligible).
