Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43846   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To evaluate the efficacy of neoadjuvant bevacizumab and chemotherapy measured by the complete resection rate after interval debulking surgery (IDS)
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles stated in the Declaration of Helsinki, 1964, as revised by subsequent amendments, following International Conference of Harmonization (ICH) recommendations, the French law, “Loi Huriet" (Law dated December 20, 1988) and the Law No 78-17 namely "Loi informatique et liberté" (Information and Freedom law). This was documented by the investigator’s signature on the protocol agreeing to carry out all of its terms in accordance with the applicable regulations and law, and to follow ICH good clinical practice guidelines.

    Primary: Percentage of Participants With Complete Resection After IDS

    End point title
    Percentage of Participants With Complete Resection After IDS [1]
    End point description
    Complete resection is defined as removal of all macroscopic residual tumor at IDS, that is completeness of cytoreduction (CC) score = 0. The CC score indicates quantity of malignancy that remains following surgery. A CC score of 0 = no tumor visualization after the complete resection; 1 = residual tumor nodules less than 0.5 centimeters (cm) in diameter; 2 = residual tumor nodules between 0.5 cm and 5 cm in diameter; and 3 = residual tumor nodules greater than 5 cm in diameter, or a layer of disease that is not completely peritonectomized. Participants with missing CC score, or without IDS were considered as failure. The percentage of participants with complete resection and associated 95% one-sided confidence interval (CI) was assessed using Pearson-Clopper’s exact method. Analysis was performed on mITT population. The value “99999” in results indicates that as planned higher side of CI was not calculated.

    End point title
    Percentage of Participants with Objective Response According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1)
    End point description
    Objective response was defined as percentage of participants with a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) assessed according to RECIST v1.1. Target lesions (TLs) were selected based on their size (those with the longest diameter) and their suitability for accurate repeated measurements. Measurable pathological nodes with short axis (SA) of greater than or equal to (>/=) 15 millimeter (mm) were also identified as TLs. All other lesions (or sites of disease) were identified as non-TLs. CR was defined as disappearance of all TLs/non-TLs and SA reduction to <10 mm for nodal TLs/ non-TLs. PR was defined as >/=30 percent (%) decrease in sum of diameters (SD) of TLs, taking as reference the baseline SD, and persistence of >/=1 non-TLs. Confirmation of response at a consecutive tumor assessment >/=4 weeks apart was required. Analysis was performed on mITT population. Participants without tumor assessment after start of study treatment were considered as non-responders.

    Number of Participants With Disease Progression or Death From any Cause
    End point description
    Progressive disease (PD) was defined as >/=20% relative increase and >/=5 mm of absolute increase in the SD of TLs, taking as reference the smallest SD recorded since treatment started, or appearance of 1 or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-TLs. Analysis was performed on mITT population.

    Progression-Free Survival (PFS) According to RECIST v1.1
    End point description
    PFS was defined as the time from first intake of any study medication until the first radiographically documented PD assessed using RECIST v1.1 criteria or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. Participants with no PFS events were censored at the time of the last evaluable tumor assessment. Participants with no tumor assessment at and after the baseline visit were censored on the date of first study treatment. PD was defined as >/=20% relative increase and >/=5 mm of absolute increase in the SD of TLs, taking as reference the smallest SD recorded since treatment started, or appearance of 1 or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-TLs. The median PFS (with the associated 95% CI) was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Analysis was performed on mITT population.

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    Serious Adverse Events (SAEs): from randomization up to last assessment (up to approximately 38 months); non-SAEs: from Day 1 up to 28 days after last dose (up to approximately 23 months)
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    Analysis was performed on safety (SAF) population, which included all participants who received at least one dose of any component of study treatment (bevacizumab, paclitaxel or carboplatin). Participants were grouped according to the treatment actually received. Events related to treatment indicate bevacizumab-related events.

    Carboplatin + Paclitaxel + Bevacizumab
    Reporting group description
    Participants received 4 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy prior to IDS (performed 28 days after the last neoadjuvant course if resectable tumor; participants with unresectable tumor went through follow-up period) and 22 cycles of adjuvant therapy before entering long-term follow-up (28 days after last treatment administration and every 6 months until disease progression or study end [maximum up to 38 months]). Each cycle was 3 weeks in length. Carboplatin and paclitaxel were administered during Cycles 1 to 8. Bevacizumab was administered during both the neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment periods in Cycles 1 to 26 (no treatment in Cycles 4 and 5).
