Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Placebo Comparator: Arm A Placebo
Blinded AMG 706 placebo plus paclitaxel
|
Drug: AMG 706 placebo
Blinded placebo Drug: Paclitaxel Paclitaxel is an antineoplastic agent that acts by promoting and stabilizing the polymerization of microtubules. |
Experimental: Arm B Experimental
Blinded AMG 706 plus paclitaxel
|
Drug: AMG 706
AMG 706 is a small organic molecule that has been shown in preclinical pharmacology and PK studies to be a potent, oral, multi-kinase inhibitor with anti-angiogenic and anti-tumor activity achieved by selectively targeting all known VEGF, PDGF and Kit receptors.
Other Name: motesanib diphosphate Drug: Paclitaxel Paclitaxel is an antineoplastic agent that acts by promoting and stabilizing the polymerization of microtubules. |
Active Comparator: Arm C Comparator
Open-label bevacizumab plus paclitaxel
|
Drug: Bevacizumab
Bevacizumab is a recombinant, humanized anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody.
Other Name: Avastin Drug: Paclitaxel Paclitaxel is an antineoplastic agent that acts by promoting and stabilizing the polymerization of microtubules. |
- Objective response rate, measured radiologically and assessed by an independent review committee. [ Time Frame: Last patient enrolled + 16 weeks of treatment ]
- Progression free survival, duration of response, clinical benefit rate (percentage of subjects with complete response, partial response or stable disease lasting >24 weeks), overall survival and incidence of adverse events. [ Time Frame: >24 weeks ]
