A Study of Bevacizumab (Avastin) in Neoadjuvant Therapy in Participants With International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) Stage IIIC/IV Ovarian, Tubal, or Peritoneal Cancer, Initially Unresectable

This randomized, open-label study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant bevacizumab in participants with initially unresectable, FIGO stage IIIC/IV ovarian, tubal, or peritoneal cancer. Participants will be randomized to receive 8 cycles of carboplatin plus paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab before surgery (interval debulking surgery [IDS]). Surgery will be scheduled 28 days after the last course of neoadjuvant treatment in participants with resectable cancer. Participants with unresectable cancer will go through the follow-up period. All participants will receive bevacizumab for Cycles 6 to 26.

Treatment and study plan

carboplatin

Drug

Carboplatin will be administered at a dose calculated according to the Calvert formula ([participant's glomerular filtration rate + 25] multiplied by the target area under the concentration-time curve [AUC] of 5 milligrams per milliliter per minute [mg/mL/min]), as intravenous [IV] infusion over 30-60 minutes [min] every 3 weeks).

paclitaxel

Drug

Paclitaxel will be administered at a dose of 175 milligrams per meter-squared [mg/m^2] as IV infusion over 3 hours using a rate controlling device every 3 weeks, or at a dose of 80 mg/m^2 as IV infusion over 1 hour using a rate controlling device every week (only during Cycles 5 to 8).

Bevacizumab

Drug

Bevacizumab will be administered at a dose of 15 milligrams per kilogram [mg/kg] as IV infusion over 30-90 min every 3 weeks.

Other names: Avastin
