PACCE: Panitumumab Advanced Colorectal Cancer Evaluation Study

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2009-05-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess whether treatment with the study drug, panitumumab given concomitantly with every 2 (Q2) week oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy and bevacizumab improves progression-free survival (PFS) compared to treatment Q2-week with oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy and bevacizumab alone. All subjects will receive Q2-week oxaliplatin- or irinotecan-based chemotherapy and bevacizumab. Control arm subjects will not receive concomitant panitumumab therapy.

• Phase: Phase 3
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

Details

• Lead Sponsor: Amgen
• Treatments: Antibodies, Monoclonal; Bevacizumab; Camptothecin; Irinotecan; Oxaliplatin; Panitumumab
