Trial Outcomes & Findings for Bevacizumab to Treat Kaposi's Sarcoma in HIV-Positive and HIV-Negative Patients (NCT NCT00055237)

NCT ID: NCT00055237

Last Updated: 2017-09-06

Results Overview

Percentage of participants with a complete response (CR) + partial response (PR)per the Modified AIDS Clinical Trial Group Criteria (ACTG) for HIV-KS. PR is a 50% decrease in the number and/or size of previously existing lesions for 4 weeks; or complete flattening of at least 50% of all previously raised lesions lasting for at least 4 weeks; or a 50% decrease in the sum of the products of the largest perpendicular diameters of the marker lesions lasting for at least 4 weeks; CR is the absence of any detectable residual disease, including tumor associated edema, persisting for at least 4 weeks.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 36 months

Population: Cohort 2 is not reported here because response rate in HIV negative patients was a secondary outcome.

Percentage of participants with a complete response (CR) + partial response (PR)per the Modified AIDS Clinical Trial Group Criteria (ACTG) for HIV-KS. PR is a 50% decrease in the number and/or size of previously existing lesions for 4 weeks; or complete flattening of at least 50% of all previously raised lesions lasting for at least 4 weeks; or a 50% decrease in the sum of the products of the largest perpendicular diameters of the marker lesions lasting for at least 4 weeks; CR is the absence of any detectable residual disease, including tumor associated edema, persisting for at least 4 weeks.
