Phase IIITreatmentActiveNot specifiedNCISWOG-S0518
S0518, NCT00569127

Special Category: CTSU trial, NCI Web site featured trial

Objectives

  1. To compare central review-based progression-free survival (PFS) in poor prognosis carcinoid patients treated with either depot octreotide acetate plus bevacizumab or depot octreotide acetate plus interferon.
  2. To compare overall survival, time to treatment failure, and traditionally reported progression-free survival of poor prognosis carcinoid patients treated with either depot octreotide acetate plus bevacizumab or depot octreotide acetate plus interferon.
  3. To compare objective response (confirmed and unconfirmed complete and partial response) in poor prognosis carcinoid patients treated with either depot octreotide acetate plus bevacizumab or depot octreotide acetate plus interferon.
  4. To compare the toxicity profile of these two regimens in these patients.
  5. To assess the prognostic and predictive value of VEGF expression in relation to PFS and treatment effect.
  6. To compare response of 5HIAA, chromogranin A, and neurospecific enolase among patients with elevated levels at baseline between patients treated with octreotide acetate plus interferon versus octreotide acetate plus bevacizumab.
  7. To assess and compare the prognostic and predictive value of the combination of IN-111 pentetreotide somatostatin-receptor scintigraphy (SRS) and CT scan vs. CT scan alone in relation to PFS.
  8. To assess and compare the prognostic and predictive value of the combination of SRS and CT scan vs CT scan alone in relation to overall survival and time to treatment failure.

Outline

This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to site of disease (small bowel vs cecum vs appendix vs other site), disease progression after initial diagnosis (yes or no), histologic grade (low vs intermediate [atypical]), and prior octreotide acetate therapy within the past 2 months (yes vs no). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

  • Arm I (octreotide acetate and bevacizumab): Patients receive depot octreotide acetate intramuscularly (IM) and bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on day 1.


  • Arm II (octreotide acetate and interferon alfa-2b): Patients receive octreotide acetate IM as in arm I on day 1 and interferon alfa-2b subcutaneously (SC) on days 1, 3, 5, 8, 10, 12, 15, 17, and 19.


Treatment in both arms repeats every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 2-6 months for up to 3 years.

Note: The purpose of most clinical trials listed in this database is to test new cancer treatments, or new methods of diagnosing, screening, or preventing cancer. Because all potentially harmful side effects are not known before a trial is conducted, dose and schedule modifications may be required for participants if they develop side effects from the treatment or test. The therapy or test described in this clinical trial is intended for use by clinical oncologists in carefully structured settings, and may not prove to be more effective than standard treatment. A responsible investigator associated with this clinical trial should be consulted before using this protocol.
