Trial Outcomes & Findings for Erlotinib and Avastin in Patients With Cancer of the Esophagus or Gastroesophageal Junction (NCT NCT00442507)

NCT ID: NCT00442507

Last Updated: 2015-07-24

Results Overview

* TTP is defined as the time from initiation of treatment to the date of documented progression. * The median of TTP with 95% confidence interval will be presented. * Progressive disease (target lesions) is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of the target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum longest diameter recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions. * Progressive disease (non-target lesions) is defined as appearance of one or more new lesions. Unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.

Measure
Erlotinib and Avastin
Patients will be treated with erlotinib 150 mg oral daily and Avastin 15 mg/kg intravenously each cycle of therapy (each cycle is 21 days or every 3 weeks). The first infusion of Avastin will be administered over 90 minutes. If tolerated, the second infusion will be given over 60 minutes and in 30 minutes for the subsequent treatments. Treatment will be administered until disease progression or intolerable side effects.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Median follow-up for TTP 6 weeks (6-18 weeks)

Population: 1 participant was not analyzed because the participant was removed from study during the first cycle due to an adverse event and was considered not evaluable for this outcome.
