Trial Information

A Phase II Study of Cisplatin Plus Etoposide (PE) Plus Bevacizumab (NSC #704865) for Previously Untreated Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the 6-month progression-free survival of patients with previously untreated
extensive stage small cell lung cancer treated with cisplatin, etoposide, and bevacizumab.

II. Determine the 6-month survival and response rate in patients treated with this regimen.

III. Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Correlate pretreatment plasma levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) with
response and progression-free and overall survival of patients treated with this regimen.

II. Correlate elevated plasma levels of endothelial cell-specific proteins (VCAM,
E-selectin) with response in patients treated with this regimen.

III. Correlate pre- and post-treatment plasma levels of basic fibroblast growth factor with
response and progression-free and overall survival of patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Chemotherapy: Patients receive cisplatin IV over 30-60 minutes on day 1 and etoposide IV
over 60 minutes on days 1-3. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 4 courses in the
absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Bevacizumab therapy: Beginning concurrently with chemotherapy, patients receive bevacizumab
IV over 90 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 17 courses (1 year)
in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 6 weeks for up to 3 years from study entry.

Type of Study:

Interventional

Study Design:

Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Outcome Measure:

Percentage of Participants Alive and Progression-free (PF) at 6 Months

Outcome Description:

Progression-free survival was defined to be the interval in months from the date of registration to the date of documented disease progression or to death without progression. Patients alive without progression at 6 months were included in the numerator when calculating the progression-free rate.

Outcome Time Frame:

6 months

Safety Issue:

No
