32 Conclusions Significant PFS advantage but no OS difference with BV across 3 first-line studies and in pooled analysis -In MBC, the ability of Phase III trials to demonstrate treatment effect upon OS depends on the duration of survival post-progression (SPP) -Higher chance of affecting OS in populations with short SPP (20 month PPS in these 3 first-line trials) Patients with adverse prognostic features benefit from BV as do patients with more indolent disease Low incidence of treatment-related deaths with BV Safety profile consistent with previous BV experience Broglio and Berry J Natl Cancer Inst. 101: Saad, Katz, and Buyse J Clin Oncol. 28: Burzykowski, et al J Clin Oncol. 26:

Cost-Effectiveness
Conclusions
Question 1: Bevacizumab is approved for first line therapy of MBC patients. Is this indication appropriate? Question 2: Do the results of the AVADO (Docetaxel) and/or RIBBOn-1 trials represent a favorable risk-benefit analysis for the upfront therapy of MBC? Question 3:Do the results of the RIBBOn-1 and AVADO trials confirm the Clinical Benefit of Bevacizumab in combination with Paclitaxel for the initial treatment of patients with HER2- MBC? Question 4: Will the PFS time no longer be accepted as an endpoint without QoL data?
Conclusions Neo-Angiogenesis is obviously important also in Breast Cancer Addition of Bevacizumab to CT results in a clear advantage in RR and PFS The advantage may be clinically very relevant in some situations (ie TNBC) Toxicity is manageable Age and other factors are little relevant Cost issue should be scientifically faced
