Trial Information

A Phase II Evaluation of Combination Bevacizumab (NCI-Supplied Agent: NSC #704865, IND #7921) and Temsirolimus (CCI-779, NCI-Supplied Agent, NSC #683864, IND #61010) in the Treatment of Recurrent or Persistent Endometrial Carcinoma


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess the activity of bevacizumab and temsirolimus, in terms of 6-month
progression-free survival (PFS) and objective tumor response, in patients with recurrent or
persistent endometrial cancer.

II. To determine the nature and degree of toxicity of this regimen in these patients.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the duration of PFS and overall survival of patients treated with this
regimen.

II. To determine the effects of prognostic factors (i.e., performance status, histological
subtype, and grade) in patients treated with this regimen.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To compare the proportion of patients with objective tumor response and PFS at 6 months
receiving the combination of bevacizumab and temsirolimus with those for the single agents
bevacizumab and temsirolimus using historical controls.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive bevacizumab IV on days 1 and 15 and temsirolimus IV on days 1, 8, 15, and
22. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable
toxicity.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years, then
every 6 months for 3 years, for a total of 5 years.
