Brief summary

This study assessed the efficacy and safety of Avastin in combination with docetaxel and cisplatin as first-line treatment of patients with metastatic or locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Patients received Avastin 15 mg/kg intravenously (IV), docetaxel 75 mg/m\^2, and cisplatin 75 mg/m\^2 on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle for a maximum of 6 cycles.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Progression-free SurvivalBaseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years)Progression-free survival was defined as the time from enrollment in the study to the first documented disease progression using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) or death from any cause, whichever occurred first.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants With an Objective ResponseBaseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years)An objective response was defined as a complete or partial response determined on 2 consecutive occasions ≥ 4 weeks apart using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Complete response was defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must be \< 10 mm on the short axis. Partial response was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum.
Duration of the Objective ResponseBaseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years)Duration of the objective response is defined as the time from a complete or partial response to disease progression or death due to disease.
Overall SurvivalBaseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years)Overall survival is defined as the time from the first dose of study medication until death.
1-year SurvivalBaseline to 1 yearThe probability of surviving 1 year was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

Participants received bevacizumab 15 mg/kg intravenously (IV) followed by docetaxel 75 mg/kg IV in combination with cisplatin 75 mg/m\^2 IV on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle for a maximum of 6 cycles. After completing the 6 cycles of combined chemotherapy, participants received bevacizumab 15 mg/kg IV until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent.

Progression-free survival was defined as the time from enrollment in the study to the first documented disease progression using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) or death from any cause, whichever occurred first.

Time frame: Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years)

Population: Per protocol population: All participants who received at least 1 dose of study medication and had no major protocol deviations.

1-year Survival

The probability of surviving 1 year was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

Percentage of Participants With an Objective Response

An objective response was defined as a complete or partial response determined on 2 consecutive occasions ≥ 4 weeks apart using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Complete response was defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must be \< 10 mm on the short axis. Partial response was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum.

Time frame: Baseline to the end of the study (up to 4 years)

Population: Evaluable population: All participants who received at least 2 treatment cycles, have had all baseline lesions assessed on at least 1 occasion after receiving the 2nd treatment cycle, and have not had any major protocol violations.
