Carboplatin (AUC 4 mg/mL/minute) was administered intravenously (IV) on Day 1 of each of six 21-day treatment cycles. The carboplatin dose was calculated to reach a target area under the curve (AUC) of concentration x time according to the Calvert formula. Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m\^2 was administered IV on Days 1 and Day 8 of each of the six 21-day treatment cycles. Bevacizumab 15 mg/kg was administered IV on Day 1 of each of the six 21-day treatment cycles. The bevacizumab dose was based on the patient's weight at baseline and remained the same throughout the study.

Carboplatin (AUC 4 mg/mL/minute) was administered intravenously (IV) on Day 1 of each of six 21-day treatment cycles. The carboplatin dose was calculated to reach a target area under the curve (AUC) of concentration x time according to the Calvert formula. Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m\^2 was administered IV on Days 1 and Day 8 of each of the six 21-day treatment cycles. Placebo was administered by IV on Day 1 of each of the six 21-day treatment cycles.

Carboplatin was provided as commercially available drug.

Gemcitabine was provided as commercially available drug.

Bevacizumab was supplied as a clear to slightly opalescent, sterile liquid in glass vials (400 mg in 8 mL \[25 mg/mL\]) with a vehicle consisting of sodium phosphate, trehalose, polysorbate 20, and Sterile Water for Injection, USP.

Placebo consisted of the vehicle for bevacizumab without the antibody and contained sodium phosphate, trehalose, polysorbate 20, and Sterile Water for Injection, USP.

Placebo

This is a placebo-controlled, randomized, multicenter Phase III study that will evaluate the safety and efficacy of bevacizumab, administered in combination with carboplatin with gemcitabine, in women with platinum-sensitive recurrent epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube carcinoma.

A Phase III, Multicenter, Randomized, Blinded, Placebo-controlled Trial of Carboplatin and Gemcitabine Plus Bevacizumab in Patients With Platinum-sensitive Recurrent Ovary, Primary Peritoneal, or Fallopian Tube Carcinoma

PFS was defined as the time from randomization to disease progression (PD), as determined by the investigator, or death due to any cause. PD: At least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum longest diameter recorded since treatment started; the appearance of 1 or more new lesions; and/or the unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. Lesions were assessed by computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or ultrasound every 9 weeks.

An objective response was the occurrence of either a partial response (PR) or complete response (CR). PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum longest diameter. CR: The disappearance of all target and non-target lesions. Lesions were assessed by computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or ultrasound every 9 weeks.

Duration of OR was analyzed in the subset of patients who achieved an OR. The duration of OR was defined as the time from the initial CR or PR until documented PD or death. Lesions were assessed by computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or ultrasound every 9 weeks.

Overall survival was defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause.

Safety population: All patients who received at least 1 dose of protocol treatment. Due to errors in drug administration, the safety population included 247 patients in the carboplatin and gemcitabine + bevacizumab group and 233 patients in the carboplatin and gemcitabine + placebo group.

The null hypothesis was that there was no difference between the 2 treatment groups, ie, that the hazard ratio is equal to 1. The alternative hypothesis was that progression free survival was longer in the carboplatin and gemcitabine + bevacizumab group, ie, that the hazard ratio is not equal to 1.

Intent-to-treat population: All patients randomized to treatment (242 patients in each treatment group).

Progression Free Survival (PFS) as Determined by the Investigator, Per Response Evaluation Criteria for Solid Tumors (RECIST)

The null hypothesis was that there was no difference in the percentage of patients with an objective response between the 2 treatment groups. The alternative hypothesis was that a larger percentage of patients had an objective response in the carboplatin and gemcitabine + bevacizumab group.

Subset of the intent-to-treat population: All patients randomized to treatment who achieved an objective response.
