A Comparison of 2 Standard Doses of Bevacizumab in Combination With Chemotherapy in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer - a Pragmatic Trial


Sponsor

Enrollment

244 participants

Start Date

Sep 10, 2021

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

A pragmatic, two armed, study comparing 2 standard doses of an anti-cancer drug called bevacizumab, given in combination with Chemotherapy. The study will be offered to ovarian cancer patients whose disease is platinum chemotherapy resistant . Higher doses of anti-cancer based drugs are not always better than lower doses and can cause more side effects without improvement of cancer. These patients will be randomly assigned either 7.5 mg/kg or 15mg/kg of bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy . Comparing these two doses will determine if the lower dose-level is non-inferior, and could lead to practice changes.
