Vosseler, et al. Cancer Res 2005 Preclinical evidence: prolonged angiogenesis inhibition with bevacizumab maintains tumour control over time1
• Human colorectal cancer (SW620) xenografts were implanted into mice1 • Anti-VEGF antibodies were given twice weekly for 3 weeks, or until the end of the study – anti-VEGF antibodies B20-4.1 and B20- 4.1.1. were used as murine surrogates of bevacizumab Data shown until <50% of mice remain on study. • Anti-VEGF treatment reduced tumour growth relative to control – tumour inhibition was more effective when treatment was continued for a longer period of time
EOS=end of study. * Continued for 3 weeks. † Continued until the end of the study.

• Preclinical studies • Pivotal trials • Maintenance trials • Non randomised observational studies • Randomized phase III trials Continued bevacizumab may correlate with clinical benefits
• In the non-randomised, observational BRiTE study of bevacizumab plus chemotherapy in patients with mCRC, median OS was increased in patients receiving bevacizumab beyond progression vs those stopping bevacizumab at progression (31.8 vs 19.9 months, respectively, HR=0.48, p<0.001)1
PD=progressive disease.
• To be confirmed in ongoing prospective phase III trials

Primary endpoint • Overall survival (OS) from randomisation Secondary endpoints • Progression-free survival (PFS) included • Best overall response rate • Safety
Stratification factors • First-line CT (oxaliplatin-based, irinotecan-based) • First-line PFS (≤9 months, >9 months) • Time from last BEV dose (≤42 days, >42 days) • ECOG PS at baseline (0/1, 2) Median: BEV + CT 11.2 months, CT 9.8 months
Median: BEV + CT 5.7 months, CT 4.1 months
Lancet Oncol 2013 Jan;14(1):29-37. TML Study Lancet Oncol 2013 Jan;14(1):29-37. PFS: KRAS population
Interaction test by KRAS status is negative (p=0.4436) OS: KRAS population
Interaction test by KRAS status is negative (p=0.1266) Conclusions
• Study confirms that continuing BEV beyond first progression while modifying CT is beneficial for patients with mCRC and leads to a significant improvement in OS and PFS
• This provides a new second-line treatment option for patients who have been treated with BEV + standard CT in first line while maintaining an acceptable safety profile BEBYP trial: Study Design
