简要总结
This is a Phase III, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy compared with chemotherapy alone in subjects with previously untreated metastatic breast cancer.
详细描述
This study includes a blinded treatment phase, an optional open-label post-progression phase, and a survival follow-up phase. During the blinded treatment phase, patients receive chemotherapy and study drug (bevacizumab or placebo) every 3 weeks until disease progression, treatment-limiting toxicity, or death due to any cause. The optional open-label post-progression phase consists of chemotherapy treatment (per investigator discretion) and optional treatment with open-label bevacizumab. Patients who complete the study or who discontinue from treatment (regardless of participation in the optional open-label post-progression phase) will be followed for survival and subsequent anti-cancer therapies every 4 months until death, withdrawal of consent, loss to follow-up, or study termination. Patients who discontinue from treatment during the blinded treatment phase for reasons other than disease progression will have tumor assessments every 9 weeks until documented disease progression or death.

结局指标
主要结局
Progression-free Survival (PFS) as Determined by the Investigator Using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST)
时间窗: Baseline to the data cut-off date of 31 Jul 2008 (up to 2 years, 7 months)
PFS was defined as the time from randomization to first documented disease progression (PD) as determined by the investigator using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. For target lesions, PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of the longest diameter recorded since treatment started or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions. For non-target lesions, PD was defined as the appearance of 1 or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. Target lesions should be selected on the basis of their size (those with the longest diameter) and their suitability for accurate repeated measurements by imaging techniques or clinically. All measurable lesions up to a maximum of 5 lesions per organ and 10 lesions in total, representative of all involved organs, should be identified as target lesions.
