About this study

Official title: Phase I Trial of Intraperitoneal Bevacizumab in Refractory Malignant Ascites.

Malignant ascites often has a profound impact on the quality of life of cancer patients. Current treatments,including dietary, medical, and procedural are often temporary and unsatisfactory options in patients approaching the end of life. Intraperitoneal bevacizumab for the palliation of malignant ascites might be a novel choice for refractory malignant ascites.

What is being measured

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

  1. adverse events

    participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 week

    Measured: during the treatment in the hospital,an expected average of 1 week

  2. Maximum tolerated dose

    during the treatment in the hosptital

    Measured: 1 week

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Objective response rate

    ultrasound will be performed every week for efficacy evaluation

    Measured: 1 week

  2. time to treatment failure(TTF)

    the follow-up visit of time to TTF will be performed every 4 weeks

    Measured: 1 month

  3. time to death(TTD)

    TTD means that from the first dose of treatment drug to death or lost, the follow-up visit will be performed every 2 months till death or lost

    Measured: 2 months
