This is a multicenter, open label, randomized bioequivalence study of BEVZ92 (bevacizumab biosimilar) and Avastin® with 2 parallel arms to compare the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of BEVZ92 and Avastin® in combination with FOLFOX (any) or FOLFIRI chemotherapy. FOLFOX (any) or FOLFIRI will be chosen as per investigator criteria based on the hospital standard of care.
Planned enrolment duration: 12 months. Pre-treatment period (included in enrolment period): 1 month. Treatment period: Patients will continue treatment until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent.
Active ingredient Bevacizumab 25 mg/mL (strength = 100 mg/4 mL). 30-minute\* IV infusion (5 mg/kg) every 2 weeks, prior to chemotherapy (Folfox any or Folfiri). FOLFIRI = Folinic Acid + Fluorouracil + Irinotecan FOLFOX = Folinic Acid + Fluorouracil + Oxaliplatin Treatment will continue until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, patient withdraws consent or death (whichever occurs first). \*The first infusion will be given over 90 minutes. If it is well tolerated, the second infusion can be given over 60 minutes. If it is well tolerated, subsequent infusions can be given over 30 minutes. The FOLFOX (any) or FOLFIRI regimen will be chosen as per investigator's criteria based on the hospital standard of care.
