Brief Summary
This phase II trial is studying how well bevacizumab works in treating patients with recurrent or persistent endometrial cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in d...
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Assess the activity of bevacizumab, in terms of 6-month progression-free survival rate and objective tumor response, in patients with recurrent or persistent endometrial cancer...
