About this study

Official title: A Prospective Clinical Trial Evaluating Potential Biomarkers for Bevacizumab Induced Hypertension

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood and urine in the laboratory from patients with cancer receiving bevacizumab may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to high blood pressure.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying potential biomarkers for bevacizumab-induced high blood pressure in patients with malignant solid tumors, including breast cancer, colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, head and neck cancer, ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal carcinoma.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To measure the endothelial function over time, including non-invasive assessment of digital-pulse amplitude via Endo-pat test, serum tPA, PAI-1, VEGF, urine TXa2, and PGI-M, in patients with solid malignancies treated with chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab.
  • To compare endothelial function changes between patients who develop hypertension (HTN) versus patients who do not develop HTN.

Secondary

  • To compare circulating soluble cytokines, proangiogenic factors, glucose tolerance, and cardiac biomarkers over time in these patients.
  • To compare endothelial progenitor cell levels pre- and post-bevacizumab in these patients.
  • To assess whether physical fitness level at baseline and at 3 months after treatment initiation (assessed subjectively by questionnaire) correlates with relative risk of developing NCI grade ≥ I cardiotoxicity.

OUTLINE: Patients undergo 24-hour blood pressure monitoring at baseline, before second bevacizumab therapy, and periodically during study. Patients also undergo a digital-pulse amplitude measurement periodically during study.

Blood samples are collected at baseline and periodically during study for circulating soluble cytokines, proangiogenic factors, glucose tolerance, cardiac biomarkers, and endothelial progenitor cell level studies. Patients also undergo 24-hour urine sample collection at baseline and periodically during study for protein, creatinine, and metabolites of prostacyclin and thromboxane.

Patients complete physical activity questionnaires at baseline and at 3 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer and Cardiovascular Complications, run by Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center at 2 sites 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 19 inclusion and 0 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 27 Feb 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: funding withdrawn due to fellow's departure from VICC). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Digital-pulse amplitude (DPA) measures (time frame: 1, 3 and 6 months after initiation of bevacizumab). 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 27 Feb 2012.
