A Phase II Study of Bevacizumab Alone or in Combination With TRC105 for Advanced Renal Cell Cancer
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To compare the progression-free survival at 12 and 24 weeks for bevacizumab alone or in
combination with TRC105 (anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Toxicity and Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) response rate for the
combination compared to single agent bevacizumab.
TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate tumor tissue expression of endoglin (CD105), transforming growth factor, beta
receptor II (TGFBR2), activin A receptor type II-like 1 (ACVRL1) and transforming growth
factor, beta receptor 1 (TGFBR1) kinase from pre- and post-treatment tissue samples in order
to determine whether CD105 and stem cell activation occurs after exposure to anti-vascular
endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy as predicted by laboratory models, and whether
exposure to anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105 affects these changes.
II. A primary goal of tissue analysis will be to generate preliminary data to correlate
levels of CD105, TGFBR2, ACVRL1 and TGFBR1 in tissue with response to bevacizumab in
combination with anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105 compared to bevacizumab alone.
III. To compare the soluble CD105 levels at baseline and after treatment between the group
receiving bevacizumab alone and the group receiving bevacizumab in combination with
anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody TRC105.
IV. To compare TGFBR2 levels at baseline and after treatment between the group receiving
bevacizumab alone and the group receiving bevacizumab in combination with anti-endoglin
monoclonal antibody TRC105.
V. To evaluate whether circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can be detected in this patient
population using parylene membrane filter technology, and whether changes in CTC counts and
CD105 expression on CTCs during therapy correspond to imaging and clinical response.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.
ARM I: Patients receive bevacizumab intravenously (IV) over 30-90 minutes on days 1 and 15.
ARM II: Patients receive bevacizumab as in arm 1 and anti-endoglin monoclonal antibody
TRC105 IV over 1-4 hours on days 1, 8, 15, and 22.
In both arms, treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 12 courses in the absence of disease
progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study therapy, patients are followed for 4 weeks.
Interventional
Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment
Progression-free survival (PFS)
Planning is based on the supposition of 12-week PFS of 61% on the control arm and 78% on the combination arm.
The duration of time from start of treatment to time of progression or death, assessed at 12 weeks
No
