About this study

Official title: Randomized Phase II Trial of Short-Course Androgen Deprivation Therapy +/- Bevacizumab for PSA Recurrence of Prostate Cancer After Definitive Local Therapy

The purpose of this research study is to assess the efficacy of antiangiogenic therapy (bevacizumab) and androgen deprivation versus androgen deprivation alone at the time of minimal systemic disease (based on rising PSA without metastases).

Read the detailed description
  • Participants will be randomized into one of two study groups. The first group will receive Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) plus bevacizumab. The second group will receive ADT alone.
  • For the Androgen Deprivation therapy either (treating physician discretion)leuprolide or goserelin acetate (given as injections) every 3 months for a total of 6 months. Bicalutamide will also be taken orally daily for a total of 6 months.
  • Bevacizumab will be given intravenously every three weeks for a total of 8 infusions over 6 months.
  • Participants will be evaluated every 7-9 weeks with vitals, physical exam, PS, laboratories including PSA and testosterone.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Relapse-free Survival

    To identify a difference in relapse-free survival in men treated with short course ADT (6 months) versus short course ADT plus bevacizumab.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Participants With PSA <0.2 ng/ml at Six Months

    Number of participants with a PSA <0.2 ng/ml at six months (upon completion of treatment).

    Measured: Six months (at completion of treatment)

  2. Cardiovascular Safety Including Measurement of Blood Pressure During Treatment Period (6 Months).

    The number of patients who developed hypertension (greater that 150 systolic or greater than 90 diastolic) during treatment period.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Analysis of Cytokines and Angiogenic Factors in Plasma/Serum

    Analysis of cytokines and angiogenic factors in plasma/serum at baseline and at 6 months (end of treatment).

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Androgen Deprivation Therapy, bicalutamide and bevacizumab in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute at 8 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Oct 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Aug 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Relapse-free Survival (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Oct 2016.
