An Observational Study of Avastin (Bevacizumab) in Patients With HER2-metastatic or Locally Advanced Breast Cancer

An Ambispective, Non Interventional Study of 2 Cohorts (Triple Negative or HR+) of Patients With HER2- Metastatic or Locally Advanced Breast Cancer Treated With Avastin® (Bevacizumab) 1st Line for at Least 12 Months and Without Progression for at Least 12 Months.

This observational study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of triple negative or HR+ patients with HER2-metastatic or locally advanced breast cancer treated with Avastin (bevacizumab) as first line therapy for at least 12 months and without disease progression for at least 12 months.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Percentage of Participants With a Best Overall Response (BOR) of Confirmed Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR)	Objective tumor response was assessed using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Confirmed CR was defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions, and confirmed PR was defined as at least at 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions. Response was to be confirmed at follow-up assessment completed within 4 weeks of the first documented response. Inclusion (baseline) here was the time after the retrospective phase and at the start of prospective phase.	From first administration of bevacizumab to inclusion in the study (up to a maximum of 42.8 months , assessed retrospectively at Baseline)
Percentage of Participants With Disease Progression or Death	Tumor progression was determined from oncologic assessment data (where data meet the criteria for progressive disease [PD]), or from adverse event (AE) data (where the outcome was "Death"). PD was defined as the appearance of new lesion(s) or at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum obtained at Screening or during treatment.	From first administration of bevacizumab to inclusion in the study (up to a maximum of 42.8 months , assessed retrospectively at Baseline)
Progression-Free Survival	Progression-free survival was defined as the time from first dose of bevacizumab to documented PD or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. PD was defined as the appearance of new lesion(s) or at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum obtained at Screening or during treatment. Inclusion (baseline) here was the time after the retrospective phase and at the start of prospective phase.	From first administration of bevacizumab to inclusion in the study (up to a maximum of 42.8 months, assessed retrospectively at Baseline)
Time to Progression	Objective tumor response was assessed using RECIST. PD was defined as the appearance of new lesion(s) or at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum obtained at Screening or during treatment. Participants who withdrew from the study early for insufficient therapeutic response without tumor assessment for PD were also included within the definition of PD. Time to progression was defined as the time from treatment start to PD. Participants who did not experience PD were censored from the last tumor assessment. Time to progression was estimated using Kaplan-Meier and expressed in months. Inclusion (baseline) here was the time after the retrospective phase and at the start of prospective phase.	From first administration of bevacizumab to inclusion in the study (up to a maximum of 42.8 months, assessed retrospectively at Baseline)
Percentage of Participants With Death	Overall survival (OS) was defined as the time between the first administration of bevacizumab and death from any cause and participants still alive at the end of the study were censored at the last consultation or last contact date.	From the first administration of bevacizumab to death from any cause (up to a maximum of 60.8 months including retrospective and prospective treatment)
Overall Survival (OS)	OS was defined as the time between the first administration of bevacizumab and death from any cause and participants still alive at the end of the study were censored at the last consultation or last contact date.	From the first administration of bevacizumab to death from any cause (up to a maximum of 60.8 months including retrospective and prospective treatment)
Duration of Bevacizumab as First Line Treatment		From start of bevacizumab until 18 months after inclusion (up to a maximum of 60.8 months including retrospective and prospective treatment)
Percentage of Participants With Temporary Discontinuation		From start of bevacizumab until 18 months after inclusion (up to a maximum of 60.8 months including retrospective and prospective treatment)
Percentage of Participants With Reasons for Temporary Discontinuation		From start of bevacizumab until 18 months after inclusion (up to a maximum of 60.8 months including retrospective and prospective treatment)
Percentage of Participants With Definitive Discontinuation		From start of bevacizumab until 18 months after inclusion (up to a maximum of 60.8 months including retrospective and prospective treatment)
Percentage of Participants With Reasons for Definitive Discontinuation		From start of bevacizumab until 18 months after inclusion (up to a maximum of 60.8 months including retrospective and prospective treatment)
Percentage of Participants Who Maintained Bevacizumab Beyond the First Progressive Disease		From start of bevacizumab until 18 months after inclusion (up to a maximum of 60.8 months including retrospective and prospective treatment)
Percentage of Participants Who Received Induction Therapy in Combination With Bevacizumab		From start of bevacizumab until 18 months after inclusion (up to a maximum of 60.8 months including retrospective and prospective treatment)
