Measure
Docetaxel + Bevacizumab
n=67 Participants
docetaxel: 75 mg/m2 IV q3 weeks. Bevacizumab: 15mg/kg IV q3 weeks. Subjects continue on dosing until they experience unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or withdrawal of patient consent. A total of 104 participants were screened for the study. Twenty six participants did not meet eligibility criteria and 2 withdrew consent. Seventy six participants were registered to the Treatment Period, 7 to arm A and 69 to arm B. Six out of 7 participants randomized to arm A elected to cross over to arm B once bevacizumab became available. Two out of the 69 participants randomized to arm B were found ineligible and taken off study before receiving treatment. As a result, the efficacy analysis was performed on 67 patients.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From randomization until tumor progression

Population: 76 participants were registered to the Treatment, 7 to arm A and 69 to arm B. 6 participants randomized to arm A elected to cross over to arm B once Avastin became available. 2 out of the 69 participants randomized to arm B were found ineligible and taken off study before receiving treatment. Thus, the efficacy analysis performed on 67 patients.

docetaxel: 75 mg/m2 IV q3 weeks. Bevacizumab: 15mg/kg IV q3 weeks. Subjects continue on dosing until they experience unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or withdrawal of patient consent.
Antitumor Activity Based on Time to Tumor Progression (TTP).
9.3 months
Interval 8.2 to 12.4

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Time of death, up to 3 years

Population: Response rate - the percentage of patients assigned to a treatment arm who experience a CR or PR. Duration of response - the interval from date of initial documented response (CR or PR) to the first documented date of disease progression. Overall survival - the interval from the date of registration and the date of death.
