What is being measured

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

  1. A phase I-II study of treatment of metastatic melanoma using induction therapy with Biochemotherapy and Bevacizumab followed by consolidation therapy with Ipilimumab (BBI)

    Determine the incidence of grade 4 bevacizumab-related toxicities and grade 3 proteinuria when bevacizumab is given with biochemotherapy to patients with metastatic melanoma for up to 3 years.

    Measured: Primary Objective

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. A phase I-II study of treatment of metastatic melanoma using induction therapy with Biochemotherapy and Bevacizumab followed by consolidation therapy with Ipilimumab (BBI)

    Compare median and overall progression-free survival to previously published historical control group of 135 patients receiving biochemotherapy followed by pulse IL-2, and also patients in the study of Weber et al (Reference 9) of ipilimumab in previously untreated patients for up to 4 years.

    Measured: Secondary Objective

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Biochemo + bevacizumab then ipilimumab in people with Metastatic Melanoma, run by California Pacific Medical Center Research Institute at 1 site 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 5 inclusion and 7 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 29 Aug 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

A phase I-II study of treatment of metastatic melanoma using induction therapy with Biochemotherapy and Bevacizumab followed by consolidation therapy with Ipilimumab (BBI) (time frame: Primary Objective). 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 NCT01743157, 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 29 Aug 2013.
