Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Objective Response Rate (ORR)
The Percentage of Patients Who Experience an Objective Benefit From Treatment. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI or CT: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Define Toxicity and Safety
To define the toxicity and safety of the combination of bevacizumab, pertuzumab and Sandostatin LAR® when used in patients with advanced low grade neuroendocrine cancer - defined by grade 3/4, treatment-related toxicity
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
The Length of Time, in Months, That Patients Were Alive From Their First Date of Protocol Treatment Until Worsening of Their Disease. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.
Overall Survival (OS)
The Length of Time, in Months, That Patients Were Alive From Their First Date of Protocol Treatment Until Death
Disease Control Rate
The Percentage of Patients Who Experience an Objective Benefit From Treatment or Experience Stable Disease. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI or CT: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Stable Disease (SD), Neither Sufficient Shrinkage to Qualify For PR, Nor Sufficient Increase to Qualify for Progressive Disease; Disease Control Rate = CR + PR + SD.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this Phase II trial will be to define the activity of a VEGF inhibitor bevacizumab, HER1/HER2 inhibitor pertuzumab, and sandostatin for patients with advanced neuroendocrine cancers. In particular, the efficacy of bevacizumab and pertuzumab treatment is of great interest. The primary endpoint of this trial will be response rate. Toxicity and progression-free survival will be obtained and evaluated.
Detailed Description
To determine overall response rate of patients with low grade neuroendocrine cancer when treated with the combination of bevacizumab, pertuzumab and sandostatin LAR®. To determine the disease control rate (objective response + stable disease), time to treatment progression, progression-free survival, and overall survival in patients with advanced low grade neuroendocrine cancer when treated with bevacizumab, pertuzumab and Sandostatin LAR® treatment. To define the toxicity and safety of the combination of bevacizumab, pertuzumab and Sandostatin LAR® when used in patients with advanced low grade neuroendocrine cancer.

Arm Title
1
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Description
combination of bevacizumab, pertuzumab, and sandostatin for patients with advanced neuroendocrine cancers
Intervention Type
Drug
Intervention Name(s)
Bevacizumab
Other Intervention Name(s)
Avastin
Intervention Description
15 mg/kg IV Day 1. The first dose should be administered over 90 minutes. If no adverse reactions occur after the initial dose, the second dose should be administered over a minimum of 60 minutes. If no adverse reactions occur after the second dose, all subsequent doses should be administered over a minimum of 30 minutes. Bevacizumab will be infused prior to pertuzumab.
Intervention Type
Drug
Intervention Name(s)
Pertuzumab
Other Intervention Name(s)
Omnitarg, 2C4
Intervention Description
840 mg IV loading dose infused over 60 minutes. The loading dose is given on Cycle 1, Day 1 or as below. Subsequent doses of pertuzumab are 420 mg IV. If the patient tolerates the initial infusion over 60 minutes, the patient may receive subsequent infusions over 30 minutes. Otherwise, pertuzumab should be infused over 60 minutes. Patients should be observed for 30 minutes after completing the pertuzumab infusion. If a patient misses a dose of pertuzumab for 1 cycle (i.e., 2 sequential cycles or administrations are 6 weeks or more apart), a re-loading dose (840 mg) of pertuzumab should be given. If re-loading pertuzumab is administered, subsequent doses of 420 mg will then be given every 3 weeks, starting 3 weeks later.
Intervention Type
Drug
Intervention Name(s)
Sandostatin LAR® Depot
Other Intervention Name(s)
Octreotide
Intervention Description
30 mg will be given every 28 days by IM injection. The dose of sandostatin may be increased, at the discretion of the treating physician, if necessary to control symptoms related to tumor secretion of vasoactive peptides.
