About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open-Label Trial Comparing Two Avastin (Bevacizumab)-Based Treatment Regimens for the First-Line Treatment of Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

This is a randomized, open-label, active-control, multicenter trial comparing two oxaliplatin/Avastin-based treatment sequences as first-line therapy for metastatic colorectal cancer. The study is designed to compare the efficacy of these two treatment sequences with respect to progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • AvastinDrug

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To compare the efficacy, as measured by progression-free survival (PFS), of FOLFOX/Avastin followed by FOLFIRI/Avastin versus FOLFOX/Avastin followed by 5-FU/LV/Avastin as first-line therapy for previously untreated metastatic colorectal cancer.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To evaluate the tolerability of sequential treatment in subjects and to evaluate the safety of an irinotecan/Avastin-based regimen versus a 5-FU/Avastin regimen for previously untreated metastatic colorectal cancer.

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Avastin in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Genentech, Inc..

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 25 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To compare the efficacy, as measured by progression-free survival (PFS), of FOLFOX/Avastin followed by FOLFIRI/Avastin versus FOLFOX/Avastin followed by 5-FU/LV/Avastin as first-line therapy for previously untreated metastatic colorectal cancer.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 May 2006.
