Potential Risk Factors

3535 Background: Bevacizumab (BV) prolongs overall survival and progression-free survival when added to standard chemotherapy in patients (pts) with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). BRiTE is a large, community-based observational registry of pts with mCRC receiving BV plus first-line chemotherapy (CT). Incidence rate, temporal pattern, and potential risk factors associated with gastrointestinal perforation (GIP) were explored. Methods: Baseline patient characteristics (BC), including prospectively identified potential risk factors for GIP, were collected at study entry. Safety data were collected every 3 months (mo). Logistic regression models, adjusted and unadjusted for treatment assignment, were used to identify BC potentially associated with GIP. Results: 1968 pts were enrolled between Feb 2004 and Jun 2005. Median study follow-up was 10 mo as of Nov 4, 2005. GIPs were observed in 34 pts (1.7%). For pts with GIP, median time to first event was 2.1 mo; the majority of events were non-fatal and occurred within the first 3 mo after starting BV. BC including GI medical history (chronic aspirin or NSAID use, peptic ulcer disease, diverticulosis) were similar in pts with or without GIP and with earlier or later GIP onset (≤ or >3 mo from start of BV). Although adjusted models did not show any significant BC, GIP rates were numerically higher in pts with primary tumor intact (2.6%) vs. resected (1.6%). Furthermore, univariate analyses revealed a significant difference between intact (2.3%) and resected (0.8%) primary tumor for earlier GIP (≤3 mo from start of BV). The majority of pts with GIP had at least one of the following: acute diverticulitis, intra-abdominal abscess, gastrointestinal obstruction, tumor at GIP site, abdominal carcinomatosis, prior abdominal or pelvic radiation therapy. Conclusions: Preliminary analyses indicate the incidence of GIP in this large, community-based observational registry is similar to that previously reported in phase III mCRC trials with BV. No associations between specific BCs and an increased risk of GIP were identified. Patients with primary tumor intact were more likely to incur a GIP within the first 3 mo of starting BV and CT.

3537 Background: Bevacizumab (BV) prolongs overall survival and progression-free survival (PFS) when added to standard chemotherapy (CT) in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). BRiTE is a large, community-based observational registry of patients with mCRC receiving BV plus first-line CT. Safety and efficacy information in unselected patients with mCRC are collected. Chemotherapy regimen choice is at the physician’s discretion. Methods: 1968 patients receiving BV plus first-line CT were enrolled at 248 sites in 49 states between Feb 2004 and Jun 2005. Patients are followed for up to 3 years, with data reporting every 3 months (mo) including disease status as assessed by investigator using his/her method of choice. Patients were grouped twice by CT. Cox regression models, adjusted and unadjusted for treatment assignment, were used to identify baseline characteristics (BC) and differential chemotherapy effects on PFS. Results: Cohort demographics were consistent with the NCI Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database for mCRC. Median study follow-up was 10 months by Nov 4, 2005. CT regimens included FOLFOX (55.8%), FOLFIRI (14.1%), and IFL (9.7%). Based on observed progression events (n=800) or deaths (n=123), projected median PFS is 11.3 mo (95% CI: 10.4–11.7). Median PFS was comparable in patients treated with CT regimen based on irinotecan (11.3 mo), oxaliplatin (11.4 mo), or neither (10.2 mo) (CT Grouping 1); or 5FU infusion (11.5 mo), 5-FU bolus (9.7 mo), or capecitabine (11.6 mo) (CT Grouping 2). Significant BC in adjusted and unadjusted models are ECOG performance status (PS), primary disease site, and albumin, with no significant difference among CT regimens. Conclusions: This large, community-based registry included a patient population with demographics consistent with the SEER database for mCRC. Preliminary median PFS of 11.3 mo compares favorably to that reported in the pivotal trial. Median PFS appears to be comparable for all CTs when combined with BV. Higher baseline albumin, PS of 0, and primary disease site of rectum were associated with improved outcome. [Table: see text]

3536 Background: Bevacizumab (BV) prolongs overall survival and progression-free survival when added to standard chemotherapy for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). BRiTE is a large, community-based observational registry of patients with mCRC receiving BV plus first-line chemotherapy. Safety and efficacy information in unselected patients with mCRC are collected. Chemotherapy regimen choice is at the physician’s discretion. Methods: To facilitate and evaluate enrollment of a typical community-based mCRC population, eligibility criteria were minimized. Cohort demographics were consistent with the NCI Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database for mCRC. Patients are followed for up to 3 years, and safety data including targeted BV-associated serious adverse events (SAEs) are updated every 3 months (mo). Results are based on descriptive analyses and are not adjusted for propensity of treatment, baseline characteristics, and treatment effects. Results: 1968 patients were enrolled between Feb 2004 and Jun 2005. Median study follow-up was 10 mo by Nov 4, 2005. SAEs were reported in 12.0% of patients including gastrointestinal perforation (GIP) (1.7%), postoperative bleeding/wound healing complications (1.2%), arterial thromboembolic events (ATE) (2.1%), and grade 3–4 bleeding (1.9%). 3.2% of patients discontinued BV due to a BV-related toxicity, most commonly bleeding. For patients with the respective event(s), median time to first event was 2.1 mo for GIP, 3.5 mo for ATE and 4.0 mo for grade 3–4 bleeding. 8.9% of patients with no history of hypertension (HTN) developed HTN requiring medication and 6.2% of patients who had HTN requiring medication at baseline experienced worsening of their HTN while on study treatment. Conclusions: In this unselected population of patients with mCRC, the safety profile of BV plus various chemotherapy regimens appears consistent with that observed in the pivotal BV trial. Overall discontinuation of BV due to a BV-related toxicity was uncommon. In this large community-based observational registry, no new BV associated safety issues have been identified.
