Trial Information

A Prospective Clinical Trial Evaluating Potential Biomarkers for Bevacizumab Induced Hypertension


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.


Inclusion Criteria:



Patients with stage IV or unresectable recurrent cancer (except for renal cell carcinoma
and glioblastoma multiforme) that will get bevacizumab as a standard of care, as well as
patients about to initiate bevacizumab within the protocols:

- ECOG5103: A Double-Blind Phase III Trial of Doxorubicin and Cyclophosphamide followed
by Paclitaxel with Bevacizumab or Placebo in Patients with Lymph Node Positive and
High Risk Lymph Node Negative Breast Cancer.

Molecular Markers

Ovarian, Fallopian Tube and Primary Peritoneal Carcinoma

- GOG0086P: A Three Arm Randomized Phase II Study of
Paclitaxel/Carboplatin/Bevacizumab, Paclitaxel/Carboplatin/Temsirolimus, and
Ixabepilone/Carboplatin/Bevacizumab as Initial Therapy for Measurable Stage III or
IVA, Stage IVB, or Recurrent Endometrial Cancer (Only those arms including
bevacizumab)

- GOG0250: A Randomized Phase III Evaluation of Docetaxel and Gemcitabine Plus G-CSF
with Bevacizumab Versus Docetaxel and Gemcitabine Plus G-CSF with Placebo in the
Treatment of Recurrent or Advanced Leiomyosarcoma of the Uterus

- GOG0240: A Randomized Phase III Evaluation of Docetaxel and Gemcitabine Plus G-CSF
with Bevacizumab Versus Docetaxel and Gemcitabine Plus G-CSF with Placebo in the
Treatment of Recurrent or Advanced Leiomyosarcoma of the Uterus

- THO0640: A Phase II Multi Center Study Investigating Translational Science in
Chemotherapy-Naïve Patients with Stage IIIB or IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
treated with the EGFR-TKI, Erlotinib (SPECS)

Eligibility Criteria:

- Patients ≥ 18 years of age with stage IV or unresectable recurrent cancer (except for
renal cell carcinoma and glioblastoma multiforme) that will get bevacizumab as a
standard of care.

- Patients ≥ 18 years of age with histologically confirmed breast, colorectal or
non-small cell lung (NSCL) cancer that have completed surgical treatment for stages I
- III cancer and are going to initiate adjuvant therapy within one of the 3 clinical
trials addressing the role of bevacizumab added to chemotherapy in the adjuvant
setting of breast, colorectal and NSCL cancer (E5103, E1505 and E5202)

- Patients ≥ 18 years of age with histologically confirmed squamous cell carcinoma of
the head and neck (recurrent or metastatic) who are about to initiate chemotherapy
with or without bevacizumab within E1305 clinical trial.

- Patients ≥ 18 years of age who are about to initiate chemotherapy with bevacizumab
within the following trials: GOG0252, GOG0086P (only those patients receiving
bevacizumab arms), GOG0250, and GOG0240.

- Patients ≥ 18 years of age with a histologic diagnosis of non small cell lung cancer
who are about to initiate bevacizumab within THO0640 clinical trial.

- Patients must provide informed written consent.
