About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Second-line Combination Chemotherapy With Avastin in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Who Have Received First-line Chemotherapy Plus Avastin

Bevacizumab beyond progression has been proven to be safe in the community setting (BRiTE) and in the post-marketing study (BEAT), and confirmed its efficacy and safety in the first line with all regimens of chemotherapy. A total of 1,953 patients were treated in BRiTE. At median follow-up of 17.5 mo, there were 1,369 1st PD and 839 deaths. Among patients with 1st PD, 65.2% received any 2nd-line chemotherapy, 34.8% received cetuximab, and 53.8% received BBP. In a multivariate analysis, Bevacizumab beyond first progression and exposure to any 2nd-line chemotherapy were independently associated with increased overall survival (both p < 0.0001). Bevacizumab beyond progression appears to be associated with longer overall in BRiTE.

The investigators planned a prospective study to prove this phenomenon of bevacizumab beyond progression.

Read the detailed description

Patients should have been treated with bevacizumab plus chemotherapy as a 1st line treatment, and after 1st progression, these patients will be accrued in this study of bevacizumab plus chemotherapy as a 2nd line treatment, and the combined chemotherapy will be chosen by physician's decision in consider with previous chemotherapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Bevacizumab (Avastin) in people with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer, run by Asan Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 7 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 17 Jul 2012. 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 South Korea. 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?

Progression free survival (time frame: 6 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00862342, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Jul 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
