Trial Information

Bevacizumab in Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma or Others Advanced Solid Tumors


The primary endpoint is the occurrence of limiting toxicities leading to definitive
discontinuation of the study drugs during the first 24 weeks in absence of progression of
the disease.

Secondary endpoints included the occurrence of Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) evaluated
during the first two cycles; overall response rate (ORR), 6-months progression-free survival
rate and Pharmacokinetic assessments.

The following definitions will be used:

DLT:

The Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) are defined as the occurrence during the first two
cycles of any grade 4 toxicity, and of any following events:

- clinical evidence of congestive heart failure,

- any arterial thromboembolic event,

- grade 3 venous thrombosis,

- grade 3 thrombocytopenia >=7 days or associated with bleeding,

- grade 3 hypertension uncontrolled (>=160/90 mmHg) with medications,

- grade 3 elevations in AST/ALT or total bilirubin. Any other grade 3 toxicity >=7 days
is also considered as a DLT, with exception of fatigue.

MTD:

The determination of the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) will be conducted on a 3 + 3 + 3
design. Cohorts of 3 to 9 patients will be sequentially enrolled in 3 steps to receive one
of four escalated doses of Pazopanib in combination with Bevacizumab to establish the MTD
(step 1: patients 1 to 3; step 2: patients 4 to 6; step 3: patients 7 to 9).

The MTD is considered to be exceeded if DLT is observed during the first 2 cycles (i.e., 56
days) in at least 2 out of 3 or 3 out of 6 patients evaluable for MTD in the two first
steps, then in at least 3 out of 9 patients after completion of enrolment (step 3).

When the MTD will be established, patients already involved in the follow-up phase at a dose
level above the MTD should decrease to the MTD.

Note: in an exploratory way (i.e., with simulation) the possibility to take into account for
the determination of the MTD the occurrence of recurrent grade 2 events or the combination
of synergic grade 2-3 toxicities as "1/2 DLT" will be investigated in the study.

Optimal Long Exposure Dose (OLED):

To determine the Optimal Long Exposure Dose (OLED), all patients which will not experience a
Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) during the first two cycles will continue the treatment and
will be followed until week 24, in order to record toxic reactions of lesser severity or
mixed toxicities leading to definitive discontinuation of the study drug, in the absence of
progression of the disease.

The OLED is defined as the dose level (less than or equal to the MTD) for which the
occurrence of sub-acute limiting toxicities leading to definitive discontinuation of the
study drug is compatible with further phase II studies.

In practice, if <=2/7-8 patients or <=3/9 patients treated at a dose level <=MTD and
followed until week 24 experience sub-acute limiting toxicities, that dose level will be
considered as the OLED.

ORR:

The overall response rate (ORR) is defined as the proportion of patients with a complete
response (CR) or partial response (PR) - target lesions and tumor response according to
RECIST guidelines.

Progression-Free Survival (PFS):

Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from the date of first study drug
administration to the date of the first observation of documented disease progression or
death due to any cause. PFS will be determined based on tumor assessment (RECIST criteria)
and survival information.


Inclusion Criteria:



- Age >18 years.

- Dated and signed written informed consent.

- Histologically progressive mRCC or other advanced refractory histologically or
cytologically confirmed solid tumors. In mRCC situation, only patients who have
received no prior therapy or who have failed only one prior systemic therapy (except
tyrosine kinase inhibitors) are allowed; for patients with other advanced refractory
solid tumors, no more than three prior systemic therapy regimens (except tyrosine
kinase inhibitors) are permitted.

- ECOG performance status of 0 or 1.

- At least one measurable site of disease as defined by RECIST criteria 1.1. based on
investigator's assessment.

- Adequate bone marrow function: absolute neutrophil count >=1.5 x 109/L, platelet
count >= 100 x 109/L, and hemoglobin >= 9 g/dL.

- Adequate liver function: AST/ALT <= 2 x upper limit of normal (ULN) and total
bilirubin in the normal values.

- Adequate coagulation function: prothrombin time (PT) or international normalized
ratio (INR) <=1.2 x ULN and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT)<=1.2x ULN.

- Adequate renal function: serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 mg/dL (133 µmol/L) or, if greater
than 1.5 mg/dL: calculated creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min.

- Absence of proteinuria confirmed by urinary dipstick test. If the dipstick test is
twice positive, proteinuria will be quantified on a complete 24h urine sample: urine
protein value must be <1 g /L.
