About
RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood and urine in the laboratory from patients with cancer receiving bevacizumab may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to high blood pressure.
PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying potential biomarkers for bevacizumab-induced high blood pressure in patients with malignant solid tumors, including breast cancer, colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, head and neck cancer, ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal carcinoma.
Full description
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
Secondary
OUTLINE: Patients undergo 24-hour blood pressure monitoring at baseline, before second bevacizumab therapy, and periodically during study. Patients also undergo a digital-pulse amplitude measurement periodically during study.
Blood samples are collected at baseline and periodically during study for circulating soluble cytokines, proangiogenic factors, glucose tolerance, cardiac biomarkers, and endothelial progenitor cell level studies. Patients also undergo 24-hour urine sample collection at baseline and periodically during study for protein, creatinine, and metabolites of prostacyclin and thromboxane.
Patients complete physical activity questionnaires at baseline and at 3 months.
