Eligibility:
All Genders
18-120 years
Phase:
PHASE2
Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or...
Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES: Primary * Evaluate the 6-month overall survival rate in patients with gemcitabine hydrochloride-refractory metastatic pancreatic cancer treated with bevacizumab and erlotinib hydrochlori...

- No history of abdominal fistula, gastrointestinal perforation, or intra-abdominal abscess within the past 6 months
- PRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:
- More than 28 days since prior major surgery or open biopsy
- More than 7 days since prior fine-needle aspiration or core biopsy
- No prior antiangiogenesis agent (e.g., bevacizumab or an oral vascular endothelial growth factor receptor small molecule inhibitor) given together with an agent that disrupts epidermal growth factor receptor signaling (e.g., cetuximab or erlotinib hydrochloride) for locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer
