About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of the Combination of Metronomic Vinorelbine and Bevacizumab as 2nd Line Treatment in Patients With Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

This trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of metronomic vinorelbine and bevacizumab combination in patients with pretreated, advanced non small cell lung cancer

Read the detailed description

Intravenous (IV) vinorelbine is a standard chemotherapy option for the treatment of metastatic NSCLC, either alone or in combination with other agents such as CDDP or Carboplatin with overall response rates (ORR) of 15-35% as 1st line treatment and less than 10% as salvage treatment. For the past few years vinorelbine is available for per os (po) administration with acceptable and reliable pharmacokinetic profiles and with a bioavailability of approximately 40% of the IV dose. In randomized phase II studies IV and po vinorelbine have shown comparable response and overall survival rates. The low dose metronomic chemotherapy that is administered in short intervals has been shown in vitro an in vivo to have antiangiogenic effects. Bevacizumab is a well known anti-angiogenic agent. Recently, a phase III study of 1st line treatment in patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC showed that the addition of bevacizumab to a platinum-based regimen provided a survival benefit. This study will evaluate the combination of metronomic vinorelbine and bevavizumab as 2nd line treatment of NSCLC.

  • BevacizumabDrug

    Also called Avastin

    Bevacizumab (IV) 10 mgr/Kgr on day 1 and 15 every 4 weeks for 6 cycles maximum followed by Bevacizumab (IV) 10 mgr/Kgr on day 1 and 15 every 4 weeks until disease progression

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Vinorelbine and Bevacizumab in people with Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Hellenic Oncology Research Group at 9 sites in Greece.

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 9 inclusion and 19 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 4 Oct 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in Greece. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Response rate (time frame: Objective responses confirmed by CT or MRI (on 3rd and 6th cycle)). 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 4 Oct 2016.
