About this study
Official title: A Randomized, Open Label Trial to Assess the Steady State Pharmacokinetics of Avastin Given With Either XELOX or FOLFOX-4 in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
This 2 arm study will compare the pharmacokinetics and safety of Avastin at steady state under 2 different dosing regimens, in combination with XELOX (oxaliplatin + Xeloda) or FOLFOX-4 (oxaliplatin, leucovorin and 5-fluorouracil). Patients randomized to the XELOX arm will receive Avastin (7.5mg/kg iv) on Day 1 of each 3 week cycle; patients randomized to the FOLFOX-4 arm will receive Avastin (5mg/kg iv) on Day 1 of each 2 week cycle. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Weekly Steady-state Exposure of Bevacizumab
Area under the serum concentration-time curve per week, at steady state (AUCss per week). Estimation of the parameter was performed using non-compartmental methods.
Measured: Up to 48 weeks
Secondary outcomes (8)
Time Zero to Last Measurable Plasma Concentration of Bevacizumab
Area under the serum concentration-time curve from time zero to the time of the last measurable plasma concentration (AUC 0-last). Estimation of the parameter was performed using non-compartmental methods.
Measured: Up to 48 weeks
Steady-state Exposure of Bevacizumab From Time Zero to Tau
Area under the serum concentration-time curve from time zero to tau, at steady state (AUCss 0-tau), where tau was the length of the cycle, i.e., tau = 3 weeks for XELOX+BV and tau = 2 weeks for FOLFOX-4+BEV. Estimation of the parameter was performed using non-compartmental methods.
Measured: Up to 48 weeks
Maximum Serum Concentration of Bevacizumab at Steady State
Maximum serum concentration at steady state (Css,max). Estimation of the parameter was performed using non-compartmental methods.
Measured: Up to 48 weeks
Minimum Serum Concentration of Bevacizumab at Steady State
Minimum serum concentration at steady state (Css, min). Estimation of the parameter was performed using non-compartmental methods.
Measured: Up to 48 weeks
Serum Clearance of Bevacizumab
Serum clearance (CL). Estimation of the parameter was performed using non-compartmental methods.
Measured: Up to 48 weeks
Time of Maximum Serum Concentration of Bevacizumab
Time of maximum serum concentration (tmax). Estimation of the parameter was performed using non-compartmental methods.
Measured: Up to 48 weeks
Volume of Distribution of Bevacizumab at Steady State
Volume of distribution at steady state (Vss). Estimation of the parameter was performed using non-compartmental methods.
Measured: Up to 48 weeks
Terminal Half-life of Bevacizumab

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing bevacizumab [Avastin], XELOX and FOLFOX-4 in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 7 sites in 3 countries.
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 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Sep 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 7 sites in Australia, Canada, New Zealand. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Feb 2010). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Weekly Steady-state Exposure of Bevacizumab (time frame: Up to 48 weeks). 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 18 Sep 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
