About this study

Official title: Effectiveness and Safety of Adding Bevacizumab to Chemotherapy in Patients With Advanced Lung Adenocarcinoma With Stable Disease After 2 Cycles of First Line Combination Chemotherapy: a Multicenter, Prospective Cohort Study

Previous studies have shown that the addition of bevacizumab to the standard first-line platinum-based combination therapy can improve the objective response rate of patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer by 20% to 28% and improve survival. Data from these published literatures suggest that the improvement in objective response rates is due mainly to patients with stable disease of chemotherapy. It has been reported that 15% of patients achieved objective remission after continuing treatment with the regimen after receiving 2 cycles of platinum-based combination chemotherapy. Therefore, the use of 2 cycles of chemotherapy after stabilization of patients with bevacizumab, hoping to improve the objective response rate of such patients 20%, and may improve survival. For the above reasons, design this study to validate our hypothesis.

Previous studies have shown that the addition of bevacizumab to the standard first-line platinum-based combination therapy can improve the objective response rate of patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer by 20% to 28% and improve survival. Data from these published literatures suggest that the improvement in objective response rates is due mainly to patients with stable disease of chemotherapy. It has been reported that 15% of patients achieved objective remission after continuing treatment with the regimen after receiving 2 cycles of platinum-based combination chemotherapy. Therefore, the use of 2 cycles of chemotherapy after stabilization of patients with bevacizumab, hoping to improve the objective response rate of such patients 20%, and may improve survival. For the above reasons, design this study to validate our hypothesis.

So a prospective cohort study has been designed to confirm this hypothesis, patients with advanced pulmonary adenocarcinoma who are stable after two cycles of platinum-based combination chemotherapy are objects of this study, and they can choose to continue the previous treatment regimen according to the guideline or adding bevacizumab to the regimen independently until the progression or intolerance of toxicity, or 4 to 6 cycles of chemotherapy in stable disease. The objective response rate in these two groups who received different treatment is the primary endpoint and the toxicity, quality of life, the progression free survival are the second endpoints.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Response Rate

    The percentage of patients who was assessed as complete response and partial response according RECIST (Response Evaluation In Solid Tumors).

    Measured: Assessment of the response should be done from the written consent to the 3 month after the last patient inrolled in the study, assessed up to 24 months.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Duration of Response Duration of Response

    The duration in responsive patients from the first remission to the progression.

    Measured: The start point was the first remission until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, which came first, assessed up to 30 months.

  2. Progression Free Survival.

    The time from the day written consent to the first date of objective progression or death from any cause.

    Measured: The progression free survival was start from the written consent to the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, which came first,assessed up to 30 months.

  3. Adverse Effects.

    The adverse effects of the treatment especially in hematology,cardiovascular system and renal system according the CTCAE 4.0, and the SAE(serious adverse events) in the treatment and follow up.

    Measured: Assessment should be done from the written consent to the date 28 days after the last chemotherapy, assessed up to 24 months.

  4. Quality of Life.

    The quality of life should be assessed in the study using FACT-L(Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Lung).

    Measured: Assessment should be done from the written consent to the finish of this study, assessed up to 36 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing bevacizumab in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Metastatic, run by Beijing Hospital.

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 20 inclusion and 24 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Aug 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Bin Ai, Docter (+86 10 85132542, docaibin@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective Response Rate (time frame: Assessment of the response should be done from the written consent to the 3 month after the last patient inrolled in the study, assessed up to 24 months.). 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 NCT03240549, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 7 Aug 2017.
