A Study of Avastin (Bevacizumab) in Combination With Herceptin (Trastuzumab) and Xeloda (Capecitabine) in Patients With HER2-Positive Breast Cancer
- Conditions
- Breast Cancer
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT00811135
- Lead Sponsor
- Hoffmann-La Roche
- Brief Summary
This single arm study will assess the efficacy and safety of Avastin in combination with Herceptin and Xeloda as first-line treatment of patients with HER2-positive locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer. Patients will receive 3-weekly treatment cycles of Herceptin (8mg/kg iv on day 1 of first cycle, followed by 6mg/kg iv maintenance dose on day 1 of subsequent cycles), Xeloda (1000mg/m2 bid po on days 1-14 of each treatment cycle) and Avastin (15mg/kg on day 2 of first treatment cycle,and on day 1 of each subsequent cycle).The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, and the target sample size is \<100 individuals.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage of Participants With a Best Overall Response (BOR) of Confirmed Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) Screening until disease progression (assessed at screening, every 6 weeks up to Week 36, thereafter every 9 weeks during treatment period, and then every 3 months during follow-up, up to approximately 4 years) Tumor response was assessed using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), Version 1.0. BOR was defined as the best response recorded for a participant from the start of treatment until disease progression/recurrence. Percentage of participants with a BOR of confirmed CR or PR (responders) was reported. CR: disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level; PR: at least a 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum LD. Confirmed responses were those which were confirmed by a repeat assessment, performed 4 weeks after the criteria for response first met.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Participants With Overall Survival (OS) Screening until death (assessed at screening, every 6 weeks up to Week 36, thereafter every 9 weeks during treatment period, and then every 3 months during follow-up, up to approximately 4 years) OS was defined as the time from enrollment to death from any cause where enrollment was defined as successfully passed screening visit, enrolled in the study and received first dose of study treatment.
Overall Survival (OS) Screening until death (assessed at screening, every 6 weeks up to Week 36, thereafter every 9 weeks during treatment period, and then every 3 months during follow-up, up to approximately 4 years) OS was defined as the time from enrollment to death from any cause where enrollment was defined as successfully passed screening visit, enrolled in the study and received first dose of study treatment. OS was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methods.
Number of Participants With Disease Progression or Death Screening until disease progression (assessed at screening, every 6 weeks up to Week 36, thereafter every 9 weeks during treatment period, and then every 3 months during follow-up, up to approximately 4 years) Disease progression was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.
Progression Free Survival (PFS) Screening until disease progression (assessed at screening, every 6 weeks up to Week 36, thereafter every 9 weeks during treatment period, and then every 3 months during follow-up, up to approximately 4 years) PFS was defined as the time from enrollment to time of first documented disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. Progression: at least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. PFS was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methods.
Number of Participants With Time to Progression (TTP) Screening until disease progression (assessed at screening, every 6 weeks up to Week 36, thereafter every 9 weeks during treatment period, and then every 3 months during follow-up, up to approximately 4 years) TTP was defined as the time from enrollment to first documented disease progression (at least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions). TTP was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methods.
Duration of Response (DR) Screening until disease progression (assessed at screening, every 6 weeks up to Week 36, thereafter every 9 weeks during treatment period, and then every 3 months during follow-up, up to approximately 4 years) DR was defined as the time from the first recorded response (CR/PR) to the date of first documented progression or death. CR: disappearance of all target lesions and non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level. PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the LD of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum LD. Progression: at least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. DR was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methods.
Time to Progression (TTP) Screening until disease progression (assessed at screening, every 6 weeks up to Week 36, thereafter every 9 weeks during treatment period, and then every 3 months during follow-up, up to approximately 4 years) TTP was defined as the time from enrollment to first documented disease progression (at least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions).
Number of Participants With Response Screening until disease progression (assessed at screening, every 6 weeks up to Week 36, thereafter every 9 weeks during treatment period, and then every 3 months during follow-up, up to approximately 4 years) Participants who had CR or PR were considered as responders. CR: disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level; PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the LD of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum LD.
