Who cannot join

  • Other co-existing malignancies or malignancies diagnosed within the last 5 years wtih the exception of basal cell carcinoma or cervical cancer in situ

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Bevacizumab in Patients With Nonresectable Cancer of the Adrenal Cortex.

This is a Phase II study of intravenous Bevacizumab in patients with pathologically confirmed nonresectable primary adrenocortical cancer (ACC). Patients must have received no prior therapy. They will receive Bevacizumab as a single agent every 2 weeks intravenously until disease progression. This study will be open at multiple sites.

Read the detailed description

Adrenocortical carcinoma(ACC)is a rare malignancy with an incidence of 1.5 to 2 per million per year in the United states. Surgery is the only therapeutic option that can prolong survival. Currently there are no therapies that have been proven to prolong survival for patients with nonsurgically resectable disease. ACC has been shown to be highly resistant to standard chemotherapy, therefore, it is important that we test agents with mechanisms of action. This is a single arm phase II study of Bevacizumab, an angiogenesis inhibitor, given as a single agent at 10 mg/kg IV every 2 weeks in patients with unresectable ACC. Bevicizumab will be used as first line therapy. The study will test if Bevacizumab will be able to prolong the time to progression. If a delay in time to progression of 4 months or greater is seen, this will be considered clinically meaningful and further studies will be considered. This study will be conducted at multiple institutions (see below).

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. To measure time to progression

    Measured: From date of first dose of Bevacizumab until progression.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To Measure objective response rate by RECIST

    Measured: At the end of treatment, RECIST criteria will be used to determine the patient's best overall response.

  2. To determine an adverse event profile

    Measured: Measured from date of first treatment until 30 days post treatment.

  3. To measure survival in all treated patients.

    Measured: Survival is measured from the date of first treatment to date of death form any cause.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Bevacizumab in people with Adrenocortical Carcinoma, run by Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

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 8 inclusion and 28 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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 measure time to progression (time frame: From date of first dose of Bevacizumab until progression.). 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 22 Apr 2015.
