Brief summary
The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of intralesional bevacizumab, a monoclonal antibody against vascular endothelial growth factor, versus the antiviral drug cidofovir in patients with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis.
Detailed description
The investigators designed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Children and adults will be randomized to receive either 3 dosis of intralesional bevacizumab, cidofovir or saline solution. Primary endpoints are the assessment of changes in the annual surgery rate and Derkay papilloma severity grading scale; secondary endpoints are changes in the Voice Handicap Index and safety.
Interventions
Patients will receive 3 intralesional injections of bevacizumab (Avastin, Genentech, San Francisco, California) every 3 to 6 weeks in a submucosal plane after surgical debulking. 12.5 mg of bevacizumab diluted in 3mL of 9% isotonic sodium chloride solution will be injected intralesionally using a 25 gauge.
Patients will receive 3 intralesional injections of cidofovir every 3 to 6 weeks a submucosal plane after surgical debulking. 3.5 mL of cidofovir diluted to a concentration of 5 mg/mL in a 9% isotonic sodium chloride solution will be injected intralesionally using a 25 gauge.
