Brief Title: Intrapleural Administration of Bevacizumab Versus Endostar for Pleural Effusions in NSCLC
Official Title: Phase II Study of Intrapleural Administration of Bevacizumab Versus Recombinant Human Endostatin (Endostar) for Refractory Malignant Pleural Effusions in Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
Study ID: NCT02005120
Brief Summary: Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) is a common complication of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Bevacizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), has been shown to be efficient in suppressing the accumulation of pleural fluid. The other widely used treatment for MPE is recombinant human endostatin.
Detailed Description: We designed this clinical trial to determine the efficacy and Safety of intrapleural Bevacizumab versus recombinant human endostatin as a treatment for malignant pleural effusions (MPE) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
