Perioperative Chemotherapy With Bevacizumab for Colorectal Carcinomatosis French Part of the Main Bev-IP Study

Phase 2
Withdrawn
Conditions
Colorectal Carcinomatosis
Interventions
Procedure: Cytoreductive surgery combined with HIPEC
Drug: bevacizumab and HIPEC (Oxaliplatin 360 mg/m2).
Registration Number
NCT03161041
Lead Sponsor
Hospices Civils de Lyon
Brief Summary

Selected patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from colorectal cancer (CRC) benefit from cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with intraperitoneal chemoperfusion (IPC). However, even after optimal cytoreduction, systemic and locoregional recurrence are common. Perioperative chemotherapy with bevacizumab (BEV) may improve the outcome of these patients. The BEV-IP study is a phase II, single-arm, open-label study aimed at patients with colorectal or appendiceal adenocarcinoma with synchronous or metachronous PC. This study evaluates whether perioperative chemotherapy including BEV in combination with CRS and oxaliplatin-based IPC results in acceptable morbidity and mortality (primary composite endpoint). Secondary endpoints are treatment completion rate, chemotherapy-related toxicity, pathological response, progression free survival, and overall survival.
