Trial summary

This phase II trial is studying how well giving sorafenib together with bevacizumab works in treating patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of Sorafenib/Avastin® as Salvage Therapy in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

This phase II trial is studying how well giving sorafenib together with bevacizumab works in treating patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Sorafenib and bevacizumab may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib together with bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Evaluate proportion of patients who are progression-free at 3 months (in historic comparison with results for single-agent bevacizumab in ECOG 3200).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Response rate (RR) II. Overall survival (OS) III. Safety IV. Feasibility

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive sorafenib tosylate orally twice daily on days 1-5 and 8-12 and bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on day 1. Courses repeat every 14 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Blood samples are collected at baseline and then periodically during study treatment for laboratory biomarker and pharmacogenetic studies.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for up to 2 years.

Being tested

Receives: Drug: sorafenib tosylate; Biological: bevacizumab

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free Survival Rate

    The primary endpoint of this trial is progression free survival at 3 months. All patients meeting the eligibility criteria who have signed a consent form and have begun treatment will be considered evaluable. Patients lost to follow-up before 3 months (e.g., progression, refusing further treatment, etc.) will be considered treatment failures. All eligible patients will be followed until death or a minimum of 3 years. The proportion of successes will be estimated by the number of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients.

    Progression is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of longest liameter of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum longest diameter recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions.

    Measured: At 3 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Response Rate

    Number of patients reporting a partial response or complete response while on treatment

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Overall Survival

    The distribution of overall survival will be estimated using Kaplan-Meier methodology.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Feasibility of Study Treatment

    Will be evaluated based on the number of patients who delayed treatment, omitted doses of treatment, or reduced treatment dose.

    Measured: 2 years

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 64 inclusion and 0 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 20 Jan 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 211 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 3 Mar 2014). 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?

Progression-free Survival Rate (time frame: At 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00826540, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 20 Jan 2026.
