- Drug: OPTIMOX-bevacizumab
- Registration Number
- NCT03828227
- Lead Sponsor
- GERCOR - Multidisciplinary Oncology Cooperative Group
- Brief Summary
A national, multicenter, open-label, randomized phase III study. The trial aim is to determine the best therapeutic strategies according with the HRQoL.
- Detailed Description
Treatment cohort will be determined based on three parameters:
* Serum albumin level at baseline,
* ECOG Performance Status,
* Mini GDS.
The "Candidate" group will be defined according to (all the following criteria must be fulfilled):
* Serum albumin level ≥ 30g/L,
* ECOG PS 0-1 (whatever mini GDS score) or ECOG PS 2 with mini GDS 0 (ie, no depression).
The "Non-candidate" cohort group will be defined according to (at least one of those parameters is fulfilled):
* Serum albumin level \< 30g/L.
* And/ or ECOG PS 2 and mini GDS ≥ 1 (ie, depression).
Patients in the "Candidate group" will be randomized to:
* OPTIMOX bevacizumab (arm A),
* Capecitabine + bevacizumab (arm B), in priority followed by FOLFOX-bevacizumab at first progression.
Patients in the "Non-candidate" group cohort
- Not randomized, follow-up patients receiving: capecitabine + bevacizumab

Group Intervention Description "Candidate group" - Capecitabine-bevacizumab (Arm B) Capecitabine plus bevacizumab Patients with : * Serum albumin level ≥ 30g/L, * ECOG PS 0-1 (whatever mini GDS score) or ECOG PS 2 with mini GDS 0 (ie, no depression). This treatment regimen will be given until disease progression (PD) or unacceptable limiting toxicity, as follows: "Candidate group" OPTIMOX plus bevacizumab (Arm A) OPTIMOX-bevacizumab Patients with : * Serum albumin level ≥ 30g/L, * ECOG PS 0-1 (whatever mini GDS score) or ECOG PS 2 with mini GDS 0 (ie, no depression). Adapted FOLFOX7 (aFOLFOX7)-bevacizumab for 6 cycles and then Adapted LV5FU2 (aLV5FU2)-bevacizumab (until progression or or unacceptable limiting toxicity) "Non candidate group" - Capecitabine-bevacizumab Capecitabine plus bevacizumab Patients with: * Serum albumin level \< 30g/L. * And/ or ECOG PS 2 and mini GDS ≥ 1 (ie, depression). This treatment regimen will be given until disease progression (PD) or unacceptable limiting toxicity, as follows:
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) at 6 months in the "candidate group". At 6 months Improvement of HRQoL at 6 months by 10 points compared to the score at inclusion on the following targeted dimensions: emotional functioning (4 items) and global health (2 items) (score from 6-30 with higher values representing better quality of life).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of patients amenable to second-line therapy. until 58 months Proportion of patients amenable to second-line therapy.
G8 score at baseline. until 58 months To determine G8 score at baseline and to correlate the candidate group and the non-candidate group according to G8 score.
Overall survival (OS) Until 58 months OS defined as the time between the date of the first dose of study treatment and the death date. Alive patients will be censored at the last date known to be alive, either during study treatment period or during follow-up period.
Other dimensions of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and longitudinal HRQoL Until 58 months HRQoL: all other dimensions of the QLQC-30 and QLQELD-14 questionnaires, and longitudinal analyses of the QLQC-30 and QLQELD-14 elderly specific module integrating all measurement times.
Number of patient amenable to surgery and/or locoregional therapy. until 58 months Proportion of patients amenable to salvage surgery and/or locoregional therapy (e.g., radiofrequency ablation, stereotactic radiotherapy, ...).
Progression-free survival (PFS) until 58 months PFS is defined as time from date of first dose of study treatment to date of first documented PD or death due to any cause determined by the Investigator assessment in accordance to RECIST 1.1. Alive patients without progression will be censored at the last tumor assessment, either during study treatment period or during follow-up period.
Performance status geriatric (PSG) score. until 58 months External analysis of PSG score as predictive for treatment efficacy: PFS and OS.
Determination of instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) as prognostic factor for overall survival (OS). Until 58 months IADL as prognostic factor for overall survival (OS) and treatment toxicity.
