Combination of Cisplatin, Docetaxel and Bevacizumab in Patients With Non-small Cell Lung Carcinoma (NSCLC)

Phase II Study to Investigate the Treatment of Patients With NSCLC Stage IIIB and IV Without the Option of Surgery With a Combination of Cisplatin, Docetaxel and Bevacizumab

Despite recent advances in the treatment of NSCLC overall survival within these patients remains dismal and there is yet an unmet medical need for additional treatment options. In this phase II study a combination of chemotherapy with an antibody (cisplatin, docetaxel and bevacizumab) is tested to determine the objective response rate in patients with unresectable and advanced non-small cell lung cancer. This response rate will be compared with historical data.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Response Rate
Time Frame: 4 years
The primary objective of this proof-of-concept study is to determine the objective response rate in patients with unresectable, stage IIIB and IV non-small cell lung carcinoma treated with the combination cisplatin, docetaxel and bevacizumab. This response rate will be compared to historical data from the ECOG4599 and AVAiL trials.
