Korábbi kezelés

• Bevacizumab (Avastin®) treatment within 6 weeks of baseline scheduled biopsy procedure
• Prior allogeneic bone marrow/stem cell or solid organ transplant
• Chronic use (\> 2 weeks) of greater than physiologic doses of a corticosteroid agent (dose equivalent to \> 5 mg/day of prednisone) within 30 days of the first day of study drug treatment
  • Topical corticosteroids are permitted
• Prior diagnosis of an active autoimmune disease (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, autoimmune thyroid disease, uveitis).
  • Well controlled Type I diabetes allowed
• Prior experimental therapy
• Progressive viral or bacterial infection
  • All infections must be resolved and the subject must remain afebrile for seven days without antibiotics prior to being placed on study

Más betegség

• Any of the following mood disorders: active major depressive episode, history of suicidal attempt or ideation
• History of blood transfusion reactions
• Cardiac disease of symptomatic nature
• History of HIV positivity or AIDS
• History of severe hypersensitivity to monoclonal antibody drugs
• Psychiatric or addictive disorders or other condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude study participation.

Laborértékek

• Concurrent medication known to interfere with platelet function or coagulation (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen, clopidogrel, or warfarin) unless such medications can be discontinued for an appropriate time period based on the drug half-life and known activity (e.g., aspirin for 7 days) prior to biopsy procedures

Egyéb

• high frequency microsatellite instability (MSI-H)
• Bowel obstruction or high risk for obstruction if tumors become inflamed
• Moderate or severe ascites requiring medical intervention
• Clinical evidence or radiological evidence of brain metastasis or leptomeningeal involvement

• Presenting with metastatic disease:
• Previous treatment failure of two previous lines of active systemic chemotherapy:

  • With or without bevacizumab
  • Administered in adjuvant setting or for treatment of metastatic disease
  • If KRAS wild type, must have at least one prior anti-EGFR therapy
