What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
BevacizumabDrug
Also called Avastin, RO 487-6646
Bevacizumab was provided as a concentrate in vials.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Bevacizumab 5 mg/kg | Experimental | Participants received bevacizumab 5 mg/kg intravenously every 2 weeks for 6 months until disease progression or termination of the study. Participants showing a continuous benefit of therapy could receive treatment for a maximum of 12 months. Receives: Drug: Bevacizumab |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Percentage of Participants With a Complete Response or a Partial Response
A complete response was defined as the disappearance of the original monoclonal protein from the blood and urine on at least 2 determinations 6 weeks apart; < 5% plasma cells in the bone marrow on at least 2 determinations 6 weeks apart; if a skeletal survey is available, no increase in the size or number of lytic bone lesions; and the disappearance of soft tissue plasmacytomas for at least 6 weeks. A partial response was defined as a ≥ 50% reduction of monoclonal protein in the blood on at least 2 determinations 6 weeks apart; if present, reduction in 24-hour urinary light chain excretion by either ≥ 90% or to < 200 mg for at least 2 determinations 6 weeks apart; ≥ 50% reduction in the size of tissue plasmacytomas for at least 6 weeks; and if a skeletal survey is available, no increase in the size or number of lytic bone lesions.
Measured: Baseline to the end of the study (up to 1 year)
Secondary outcomes (2)
Progression-free Survival
Progression-free survival was defined as the time from the first dose of study drug to disease progression or death due to progression.
Measured: Baseline to the end of the study (up to 1 year)
Overall Survival
Overall survival was defined as the time from the first dose of study medication until death.
Measured: Baseline to the end of the study (up to 1 year)

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Bevacizumab in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 4 sites in Austria.
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 3 inclusion and 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jul 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 4 sites in Austria. 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 8 Jul 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?
Percentage of Participants With a Complete Response or a Partial Response (time frame: Baseline to the end of the study (up to 1 year)). 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 8 Jul 2014.
