What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With "Complete Response" and "Partial Response"

    Response assessed by type-B ultrasonic tests; Complete remission (CR) was considered when the accumulated fluid had disappeared and was stable for at least four weeks; partial remission (PR) was considered when >50% of the accumulated fluid had disappeared, symptoms had improved, and the remaining fluid had failed to increase for at least four weeks; The total efficiency ORR was calculated by taking the sum of CR+PR

    Measured: from randomization, This treatment was given every two weeks,responses were made by biweekly

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Median Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    Measured: baseline to biweekly,until disease progression

  2. Overall Survival (OS)

    Measured: randomization to four weeks,until death

  3. Adverse Reactions

    Measured: Up to 1 month after the last treatment

  4. Qualify of Life (QoL)

    Measured: baseline to biweekly,until death

A Phase 3 study testing Bevacizumab and Cisplatin in people with Malignant Pleural Effusion, run by Chinese PLA General Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 6 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With "Complete Response" and "Partial Response" (time frame: from randomization, This treatment was given every two weeks,responses were made by biweekly). 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 25 Mar 2015.
