A Study of Intrapleural Administration of Bevacizumab and Camrelizumab for Malignant Pleural Effusion
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Patients with a variety of malignancies can develop malignant pleural effusion (MPE). MPE can cause significant symptoms and result in a marked decrease in quality of life and a poor prognosis. MPE is primarily considered as an immune and vascular manifestation of pleural metastases. The combined use of anti-angiogenic therapy and immunotherapy may be a promising strategy for MPE.
This is a Phase Ib/II clinical trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of administering bevacizumab and camrelizumab into the intrapleural space of subjects with malignant pleural effusion through a pleurX catheter.

Phase 1/Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
This study is a phase Ib/II, single arm study with main purpose to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of intrapleural administration of bevacizumab and camrelizumab in subjects with malignant pleural effusion.
The study aims to recruit 9 - 15 subjects in phase 1, and once the safety, tolerability and the preliminary efficacy of bevacizumab and camrelizumab reach an optimal target exposure for recommended dose (RD), phase 2a will be opened for enrolment of approximately 40 subjects

Drug: bevacizumab and camrelizumab
Stage 1 was classical "3+3" dose escalation with pts assigned to one of the following 3 cohorts, Cohort A:Avastin 5mg/kg once every 2 weeks and camrelizumab 100mg once every 2 weeks;Cohort B:Avastin 7.5mg/kg once every 2 weeks and camrelizumab 100mg once every 2 weeks;Cohort C:Avastin 7.5mg/kg once every 2 weeks and camrelizumab 200mg once every 2 weeks.DLT was observed for 28 days.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Adverse Events (Safety) [up to 12 months]
Incidence of safety events including: adverse events (AEs), Serious AEs, and dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) AEs:Percentage of participants with adverse events; SAEs:Percentage of participants with Serious AEs; Dose limiting toxicity (DLT) is referred to grade 3 non-hematological toxicity or grade 4 hematological toxicity according to NCI CTCAE 4.0 criteria.
- ORR [up to 12 months]
Complete remission (CR) was considered when the accumulated fluid had disappeared and was stable for at least four weeks; partial remission (PR) was considered when >50% of the accumulated fluid had disappeared, symptoms had improved, and the remaining fluid had failed to increase for at least four weeks; The total efficiency ORR was calculated by taking the sum of CR+PR
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Exploratory biomarkers [up to 12 months]
The expression levels of PD-L1 CPS and TPS in baseline Tumor cells embedded in initial pleural fluid sediment Levels of VEGF and its soluble receptor SVEGFR-1 in pleural fluid and plasma (THE levels of VEGF and SVEGFR-1 in pleural fluid and plasma are determined by ELISA) ; Flow cytometry is used to detect CD8+ CD69+ cell , CD8+ IFN-G + cell , CD8+ Granzyb + cell and CD8+ PD-1+ in MPE before and after intrathoracic injection of the study drug.; The release levels of TNF-A and IL-1B in the supernatant of pleural effusion and peripheral blood using ELISA
- Quality of life questionnaire EORTC QLQ 30 [up to12 months]
Scale from 1-100 for 30 items, higher score indicates a better situation.
