What is being measured

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

  1. Best Response

    The best overall response is the best response, per the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria, recorded from randomization until disease progression/recurrence (includes both confirmed and unconfirmed responses). Although the original primary outcome was progression-free survival, there was insufficient data available to report on that outcome.

    Measured: From randomization until disease progression/recurrence (by patient)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    All grades according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), v3.0. An SAE is defined as an adverse event that results in death, is life threatening, requires hospitalization, results in significant disability, results in birth defect, or is considered a significant medical event by the investigator

    Measured: 30 days following the last administration of study treatment

  2. Grade ≥ 3 Adverse Events (AEs)

    All grades according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), v3.0. Grading: 1=Mild AE; 2=Moderate AE; 3=Severe AE; 4=Life-threatening or disabling AE; 5=Death related to AE

    Measured: 30 days following the last administration of study treatment

  3. Adverse Events Leading to Death

    All grades according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), v3.0

    Measured: 30 days following the last administration of study treatment

  4. Adverse Events Leading to Sunitinib Discontinuation, Dose Interruption, or Dose Reduction

    All grades according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), v3.0

    Measured: 30 days following the last administration of study treatment

  5. Adverse Events Leading to Bevacizumab Discontinuation or Dose Interruption

    All grades according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), v3.0

    Measured: 30 days following the last administration of study treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing bevacizumab, sunitinib and paclitaxel in people with Metastatic Breast 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 6 inclusion and 30 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Dec 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 3 Dec 2009). 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?

Best Response (time frame: From randomization until disease progression/recurrence (by patient)). 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 3 Dec 2009.
