NCT ID NCT01303497

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether adding a targeted drug called bevacizumab to standard chemotherapy (paclitaxel) helps control advanced angiosarcoma, a rare cancer of blood vessels. About 70 adults whose cancer had spread or could not be removed by surgery took part. The goal was to see if the combination could stop the cancer from growing for at least 6 months.
