What is being tested

  • Drug Avastin, 25 Mg/mL Intravenous Solution

What it is measuring

The primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS)

This is the trial's main question — the one it is designed and sized to answer. Anything else it reports is a secondary finding, and secondary findings are far more likely to be chance.

Phase 3. Compares the treatment against current standard care in a large group. This is the design that changes practice.

How the researchers describe it

Bevacizumab is a standard drug for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy. However, inter-individual pharmacokinetic variability was observed for bevacizumab and an exposure-response relationship for efficacy was described for bevacizumab in mCRC patients treated with 1st-line bevacizumab-based chemotherapy.

Who the trial is looking for

Inclusion Criteria

  • Patients aged ≥18 years.
  • Histologically proven metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma (on primary tumor and/or metastases) inoperable, well documented, i.e. not compatible with complete oncological resection at inclusion.
  • For whom treatment with bevacizumab is indicated.
  • For women of childbearing age: effective contraception.
  • ECOG Performance status (PS) 0-2.
  • No prior treatment of metastatic disease (in the case of adjuvant treatment, interval between the end of chemotherapy and relapse > 6 months if fluoropyrimidine alone or > 12 months if FOLFOX).
  • At least one evaluable or measurable lesion assessed by computed tomography (CT) according to RECIST v1.1 criteria.
  • Life expectancy greater than 3 months.
  • Adequate hematological, renal and hepatic biological parameters: neutrophils ≥ 1.5×109/L; platelets ≥ 100×109/L; hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL; serum creatinine <150 μmol/L; bilirubinemia ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN), alkaline phosphatase < 5xULN; proteinuria < 2+ (urine dipstick) or ≤ 1 g/24h.
  • Written informed consent signed by the patient.
  • Patient affiliated to a French social security system.

Randomization criteria in the experimental phase:

  • Serum concentration of bevacizumab on D14 ≤ 15.5 mg/L (measured just before the 2nd infusion of bevacizumab).

Where it is running

Running at 4 sites. Listed in: France.

Individual hospitals, and whether each is currently open, are listed on the registry record. Sites open and close throughout a trial.

Worth asking your oncology team

Being listed here is not a recommendation, and no one page can tell you whether a trial is right for you. These are the questions it raises.

  • Is this trial open at a hospital I could realistically travel to?
  • Given my stage, my previous treatment and my tumour's molecular profile, would I be eligible?
  • What would I be giving up by joining — is the comparison arm the treatment I would otherwise be having?
  • What is already known about the safety of what is being tested?

This is a listing of a registered clinical trial, reproduced for information. It is not a recommendation, this site has no connection to the trial or its sponsor, and being listed here says nothing about whether the treatment works. Talk to your own oncology team before pursuing any trial.

This article summarises published research for general information. It is not medical advice, and it is not a substitute for a conversation with your own oncology team, who know your case. Do not start, stop, or change any treatment or supplement on the basis of what you read here.
