Abstract

PURPOSE: Bevacizumab, a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody against vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A), has clinical activity in multiple tumor types. We conducted a phase II trial to assess the activity and tolerability of single-agent bevacizumab in recurrent or persistent endometrial cancer (EMC). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Eligible patients had persistent or recurrent EMC after receiving one to two prior cytotoxic regimens, measurable disease, and Gynecologic Oncology Group performance status of
