This trial is supported by the NCI Cancer Trials Support Unit (CTSU). 
Participation is restricted to NCI-supported Phase 2 Contract (N01) sites. 
All Phase 2 Contractors will participate through the CTSU mechanism as 
outlined below. 
• All participating investigators and research staff must be registered members of the CTSU and 
have an active CTEP IAM account (https://eapps-ctep.nci.nih.gov/iam). To ensure timely 
communication between the clinical site and the CTSU, it is critical that a CTSU Site 
Administrator and Data Administrator be designated at each site and that their CTEP IAM contact 
information remains current. Instructions on obtaining a CTEP IAM account and registering with 
the CTSU are outlined in the Registration Procedures section of this protocol. 
 
• The study protocol and all related forms and documents may be downloaded from the 8233 
Web page located under the Phase 2 Consortia Trials section of the CTSU Members’ side of the 
web-site. Protocol document access is confined to the investigators and associates at Phase 2 
contract sites (main members and affiliates). Go to http://www.ctsu.org, sign on with your 
username and password on the left hand side, click on the Protocols tab, then click on “Phase 2 
Consortia Trials” and select trial 8233. 
 
• Send site registration documents to the CTSU Regulatory Office in Philadelphia as outlined in 
the Registration Procedures section of this protocol. 
 
• Patient enrollments will be facilitated by the CTSU. Fax patient enrollment documents to the 
CTSU Patient Registration desk as outlined in the Registration Procedures section of this 
protocol. 
 
• Data management activities will be performed by CTSU Data Operations. This is a CTSU 
Remote Data Capture (RDC) study. All sites will submit CRF data electronically using the RDC 
system. Discrepancy management will be handled through the discrepancy management 
component of the RDC system. The RDC Production Application is for those individuals who 
have completed their training in the RDC system. Please go to the CTSU Members’ side of the 
website (https://www.ctsu.org) and click on the “Clinical Data” tab at the top of your screen, 
followed by the “Remote Data Capture” link on the left-hand side of your screen. Select the 
"Training" tab to request a training account. Clinical reports should be submitted to CTSU Data 
Operations via fax. Details are outlined in the protocol section Data Submission to Data 
Operations Center (CTSU).

Temsirolimus (CCI-779, Torisel) 
Temsirolimus (CCI-779, sirolimus 42-ester with 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl) propionic-acid), 
an ester of the macrocyclic immunosuppressive agent sirolimus (rapamycin, 
Rapamune™), is a cytostatic cell cycle inhibitor with antitumor properties. The agent 
specifically inhibits the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), a Ser/Thr kinase 
involved in the initiation of mRNA translation (reviewed in Dancey, 2002). 
Temsirolimus has been shown to inhibit the growth of a wide range of histologically 
diverse tumor cells, with the greatest sensitivity shown by cells derived from the central 
nervous system (CNS) cancers, leukemia (T-cell), breast cancer, prostate cancer, and 
melanoma [25]. Temsirolimus is being developed as a cytostatic agent to delay the time 
to tumor recurrence or progression or to increase survival in patients with various 
malignancies. Key features of this agent include its good tolerability, unique mechanism 
of action, ability to arrest cells in the G1 phase, and ability to induce apoptosis. 
Intermittent schedules of temsirolimus administration have been evaluated in clinical 
studies because nonclinical data suggest such schedules minimize the agent’s

immunosuppressive effects while maintaining antitumor activity. 
Mechanism of Action 
The observed antitumor and immunosuppressive properties of rapamycin analogs are due 
to their ability to disrupt the mTOR-dependent signaling pathway [26].  mTOR, a 
member of the phosphatidylinositide 3’-kinase (PI3K)-related family, is located 
predominantly in the nuclear fraction of both neoplastic and normal cells [27]. mTOR 
activation triggers resting cells to increase the translation of a subset of mRNAs whose 
proteins are required for cell cycle progression from G1 to S phase. mTOR regulates 
essential signal transduction pathways and is involved in the coupling of growth stimuli 
with cell cycle progression.  Experimental data indicate that mTOR acts downstream of 
the PI3K/Akt pathway and is phosphorylated in response to mitogenic signals [26]. Early 
studies reported that mTOR was dedicated to initiating mRNA translation in response to 
favorable nutrient environments [28]. In fact, cells treated with rapamycin undergo 
changes that are strikingly similar to those observed during conditions of starvation. 
These include mTOR inactivation, down regulation of translation, G1 arrest, 
accumulation of glycogen stores and altered transcription patterns [28]. More recent 
studies have demonstrated that mTOR is involved in regulating many aspects of cell 
growth, including organization of the actin cytoskeleton, membrane traffic, protein 
degradation, protein kinase C (PKC) signaling, ribosome biogenesis, and transcription 
(reviewed in Schmelzle and Hall, 2000). 
Temsirolimus reacts with the ubiquitous intracellular FK506-binding protein 12 
(FKBP12), forming a temsirolimus/FKBP12 complex that is a potent inhibitor of the 
highly conserved kinase mTOR [29]; [30]. Inhibition of mTOR leads to suppression of 
several downstream signaling effectors, including the ribosomal subunit p70S6k and the 
eukaryotic initiation factor 4 binding protein 1 (4E-BP1) [31]. These two proteins play 
key roles in ribosomal biogenesis and cap-dependent translation, respectively [32]. The 
extent of phosphorylation of these two downstream proteins (p70S6 kinase and 4E-BP1) 
may therefore serve as indicators of temsirolimus biologic activity in vivo. Inhibition of 
the synthesis of ribosomal proteins and elongation factors, required to accelerate the 
process of cell division, are thought to contribute to the anti-proliferative effects of 
rapamycin analogs [33]. While temsirolimus inhibits the translation of only a subset of 
mRNAs, inhibition of mTOR can lead to a substantial decrease (~15%) in overall protein 
synthesis [34]. 
Tumors that rely on paracrine or autocrine stimulation of receptors that constitutively 
stimulate the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway or tumors with mutations that activate the 
PI3K/Akt signal transduction pathway may depend on rapamycin-sensitive pathways for 
growth and therefore may be particularly sensitive to rapamycin analogs. The tumor 
suppressor gene PTEN is known to play a major role in embryonic development, cell 
migration, and apoptosis (reviewed in Yamada and Araki, 2001). PTEN acts as a lipid 
phosphatase that regulates major signal transduction pathways and effectively terminates 
PI3K-mediated signaling [35]. PTEN mutation is associated with constitutive activation 
of the PI3K/Akt pathway, resulting in tumors that are generally resistant to apoptosis. 
PTEN status in tumor cells may therefore be an important predictor of sensitivity to

rapamycin analogs [26]. Preliminary evidence suggests that breast cancer cell lines 
containing PTEN mutations are sensitive to growth inhibition by rapamycin [36]. 
Additional studies in PTEN-deficient human tumor cell lines and PTEN knockout mice 
have demonstrated sensitivity to growth inhibition by temsirolimus. Temsirolimus 
produced remarkable sensitivity to G1 arrest (ID50 < 1nM) in PTEN-deficient myeloma 
cell lines, while myeloma cells containing wild type PTEN were at least 1000-fold less 
sensitive to the agent [37]. Also, studies of glioblastoma cell lines indicated that low 
PTEN protein expression was strongly linked with sensitivity to temsirolimus-mediated 
growth arrest [38]. Together, these studies indicate that the molecular identification of 
PTEN mutations or other mutations that lead to constitutive activation of the pathway 
within tumor cells might be predictive of sensitivity to temsirolimus therapy [39]. 
Summary of Clinical Studies 
Temsirolimus safety, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary antitumor effects were evaluated 
in a phase 1 dose-escalation study with doses of 7.5-220 mg/m2 given as a weekly 
intravenous (IV) infusion to 24 patients with advanced malignancies [40]. Although the 
maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was not reached, 220 mg/m2 appeared to be the 
maximum acceptable dose, with thrombocytopenia being dose limiting with repeated 
dosing.  No clinically relevant immunosuppressive effects were observed during 
treatment, although herpes simplex infections were observed in five patients. The most 
frequent drug-related adverse events were acneiform maculopapular rashes and 
mucositis/stomatitis (18 of 24 patients, 75%). Confirmed partial responses (PRs) were 
observed in 2 of 24 patients evaluated, one each with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and 
breast cancer. 
Data from in vitro studies of A498 human renal cell lines indicated that temsirolimus had 
a median growth inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 5 ng/mL [25]. Predicted modeling of 
IC50 (humans receiving doses as low as 10 mg) suggests that whole blood concentrations 
would be above the range of 1 ng/mL throughout the entire 1-week dose interval and 
above 5 ng/mL for the majority of this time period. It is expected that mTOR inhibition 
would be attained with a 25 mg dose. 
Clinical pharmacokinetic data are available in patients with cancer receiving 
temsirolimus both IV daily x 5 days every 2 weeks, once weekly schedules, and orally 
daily x 5 every 2 weeks. These data indicate that there is no appreciable drug 
accumulation between cycles and that distribution is extensive. With increasing dose, 
exposure (AUC) increases in a less than proportional fashion. The mean volume of 
distribution at steady state (Vdss) is large (57 L after 2 mg IV dose; 900 L following a 250 
mg IV dose) and increases with dose. Exposure to the hydrolytic product sirolimus is 
substantial with mean values of approximately 1.5-2.3-fold greater than those seen with 
temsirolimus following IV administration. Clearance (CL) of temsirolimus from whole 
blood increases with increasing dose from approximately 5.2L/h after a 2 mg dose to 
100L/h after a 250 mg dose.  Intersubject variability in CL at a given dose was modest 
and ranged from 16-27%. The terminal half-life (t1/2) following temsirolimus doses of 25 
to 250 mg is approximately 15 hours.

Pharmacokinetic results from the initial phase 1 study showed that the AUC increased 
proportionally with doses up to 150 mg, but doses higher than 300 mg yielded high 
AUCs and low CL in some patients [40]. The mean Vdss was large with mean values of 
127-384 L, while the temsirolimus mean terminal t1/2 decreased from 22 hours (34 
mg/m2) to 13 hours (220 mg/m2) as the dose increased.  Similar pharmacokinetic data 
were reported for 16 patients following their initial dose of temsirolimus of 25, 75, or 250 
mg delivered as a weekly 30-minute IV [41]. 
Phase II studies of single agent temsirolimus evaluating different doses of 25 mg, 75 mg, 
and/or 250 mg weekly IV have been undertaken in broad range of tumor histologies. The 
most promising activity has been seen in mantle cell lymphoma [42]; [43], other B-cell 
lymphomas [38] and endometrial carcinoma [44] with objective tumor response rates of 
25-40%.  Moderate activity has been reported in breast [45] and renal cell carcinoma 
[41]. Minimal to modest single agent activity has been seen in SCLC [46], melanoma 
[47] and GBM [48], [49] and multiple myeloma [50]. In general, lower doses appear to 
be as active as higher doses with better tolerability. 
Recently, a phase 3 trial of temsirolimus, temsirolimus with interferon versus interferon 
in poor prognosis patients with RCC has been reported [51]. Of the 626 patients, overall 
survival of patients treated with temsirolimus was significantly prolonged compared to 
those treated with interferon (median 10.9 months versus 7.3 months, HR = 0.73, p = 
0.0069). The combination of interferon and temsirolimus did not confer greater benefit 
than interferon alone, possibly due to compromised dose delivery of the agent(s). 
Temsirolimus +Bevacizumab 
It is clear that many of the new, targeted agents may not be of significant clinical benefit 
when used alone. Interfering with (multiple) pathways that affect the tumor cells and the 
tumor microvasculature may be a potentially promising strategy that can be of benefit for 
patients with renal cell cancer. Based on the mechanisms of action of both drugs, we 
hypothesize that the combination of temsirolimus and bevacizumab would induce stable 
disease in patients with progressive NET, ovarian cancer, HCC and endometrial cancer. 
Temsirolimus targets essential regulatory functions in the tumor cells as well as cells of 
the tumor stroma, and bevacizumab, by neutralizing VEGF, will target the tumor 
endothelium. Preclinical studies have suggested that the combination of the mTOR 
inhibitor rapamycin with a monoclonal antibody against VEGF is associated with 
enhanced antitumor effects in a pancreatic cancer model, compared to each agent alone 
[52]. The combination also was associated with a more potent in vivo antiangiogenic 
effect, as measured by tumor microvessel density, and enhanced apoptosis. This 
combination is at least additive, and may be synergistic (experiments to assess synergy 
were not possible in this in vivo model). This has led to a phase I/II trial of bevacizumab 
combined with temsirolimus in renal cancer which is being performed by the Mayo 
Clinic consortium. The trial reported at ASCO 2007 has demonstrated that the DLT was 
grade 3 hypertriglyceridemia. One patient also experienced a grade 3 mucositis. Other 
grade 3 adverse events that were not DLTs included hypertension, proteinuria, 
hemorrhage, nausea/vomiting, dehydration, anorexia, pneumonitis, anemia, and 
hypophosphatemia. The best responses in the 12 evaluable patients included 7 PRs and 3

SDs. This combination will be evaluated in both a company sponsored trial and by 
ECOG in first-line renal cancer. The RP2D from that trial is proposed for this multi- 
tumor phase 2 trial. 
Endometrial Cancer 
Endometrial cancer affects 40,000 women in the US each year and long-term outcomes in 
patients with advanced stage or recurrent disease is poor[53]. Endometrial cancer deaths 
are also rising, increasing over 100% during the past 20 years [54]. Approximately 40% 
of stage II/III tumors will recur and many of these will result in death. Investigations 
focusing on new approaches to improve outcomes in this patient population are 
warranted. 
There have been several randomized controlled studies performed by the Gynecologic 
Oncology Group (GOG) and others addressing the issue of optimal therapy for patients 
with recurrent endometrial cancer. These studies have focused on three active agents 
identified in phase II trials: doxorubicin, platinum agents, and paclitaxel. Doxorubicin 
alone has been shown to have a 38% overall response rate with 26% of patients achieving 
a complete clinical response [55]. In GOG-107, 281 women were randomized to 
doxorubicin alone (60 mg/m2) vs. doxorubicin (60 mg/m2) plus cisplatin (50 mg/m2) 
(AP) which resulted in an improved response rate to combination therapy (25% vs. 42%, 
p=0.004) and PFS (3.8 vs. 5.7 months); however, there was no difference in overall 
survival (9 vs 9.2 months) [56]. It has been shown that Paclitaxel has significant single 
agent activity with a response rate of 36% in recurrent or advanced endometrial cancer 
[57]; however, in the randomized trial comparing paclitaxel with doxorubicin or the 
standard arm of AP, there was no difference in RR, PFS, or OS between the two arms 
[58]. In GOG 177, patients were randomized to AP versus TAP, which had significantly 
worse toxicity despite an improved ORR (57% vs. 34%; p<0.01), PFS (8.3 vs. 5.3 
months; p<0.01) and OS (15.3 vs. 12.3 months; p=0.037) [59]. 
There is evidence that angiogenesis plays a significant role in endometrial cancer 
prognosis and disease progression [60]; [61]; [62]; [63]. Angiogenesis biomarkers 
correlate with endometrial cancer response to therapy and appear to have a prognostic 
role as well [64]. Bevacizumab has been shown to have overall clinical activity in 
previously treated patients with endometrial cancer. In a small study of 11 patients with 
recurrent endometrial cancer and leiomyosarcoma who had multiple sites of recurrence 
and have been treated with prior cytotoxic therapy, 2 had a PR and 3 had SD [65]. 
Temsirolimus and other mTOR inhibitors have shown single agent activity in patients 
who have recurrent or metastatic endometrial cancer [44]; [66]. In an NCIC trial of 27 
patients with recurrent and metastatic endometrial cancer previously treated with 
hormones only who received single agent temsirolimus, a response rate of 25% and 
median progression free survival of 6 months were observed. [44]. Seven of 19 patients 
benefited from a different mTOR inhibitor AP25373 in a patient population who had 
progressed on chemotherapy. [66]. 
Due to the single agent activity of both temsirolimus and bevacizumab in endometrial

cancer patients who have been previously treated, this trial will combine these two agents 
to determine the efficacy of the combination as first line therapy. 
Ovarian Cancer 
Therapeutic targets including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and mammalian 
target of rapamycin (mTOR) have been shown to be important in the regulation of 
ovarian cancer. RAD001 (everolimus) [67] has been shown to play a central role in the 
regulation of ovarian cancer cell growth and cell cycle progression, to delay tumor onset 
and progression in a transgenic mouse model of ovarian cancer.[68]. Expression levels of 
Bcl-2 and CCND1/CDK4 may be predictive of the cellular effects of these agents in 
human ovarian carcinoma.[69]. VEGF expression in cell lines and murine models has 
been shown to be important in ovarian cancer cell growth and in stimulation of ascites 
production with increased production of VEGF leading to rapid ascites accumulation and 
inhibition of VEGF expression decreasing ascites production and cell growth. [70]. 
Furthermore, circulating levels of VEGF in mice has been shown to correlate with tumor 
response and response to therapy. [71] Administration of bevacizumab and rapamycin in 
combination in a mouse model of intraperitoneal cancer has been shown to inhibit of 
tumor growth more than either agent alone. [72] 
While clinical activity of mTOR inhibitors have not yet been reported in human subjects 
with ovarian cancer, the activity of bevacizumab has been documented in phase II trials 
of the single agent alone and in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy or other 
targeted agents. [73] treated forty-four patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer 
and reported a partial response in seven patients (15.9%). The median progression-free 
survival was 4.4 months and the median survival duration was 10.7 months. 
Bevacizumab-associated grade 3 or 4 adverse events included hypertension (9.1%), 
proteinuria (15.9%), bleeding (2.3%), and wound-healing complications (2.3%) and GI 
perforations (11.4%). The incidence of perforation was related to prior therapy as this 
complication was observed in 23.8% of patients receiving three prior chemotherapy 
regimens, compared with 0% of patients receiving two prior chemotherapy regimens (P < 
.01). It is also possible that heavily pretreated patients have a greater degree of tumor 
involvement, which may more directly contribute to the risk of perforation 
The Gynecology Oncology Group reported a separate single agent trial of bevacizumab 
in persistent or recurrent ovarian cancer. [74]. Sixty-two patients having a median age of 
57 years were treated. 66.1% received two prior regimens and 41.9% were considered 
platinum resistant.  Two complete and eleven partial responses (21% ORR) were 
observed with a median response duration of 10 months. Twenty-five patients (40.3%) 
survived progression-free for at least 6 months. The median PFS and overall survival 
were 4.7 and 17 months, respectively. There was no significant association of prior 
platinum sensitivity, age, number of prior chemotherapeutic regimens, or performance 
status with the hazard of progression or death. Grade 3 adverse events included 
myelosuppression, gastrointestinal, hypertension, thromboembolism, allergy, hepatic, 
pain, coagulation, constitutional, and dyspnea. Grade 4 adverse events included one 
incident of pulmonary embolus, vomiting and constipation, and proteinuria.

Combinations of bevacizumab with metronomic cyclophosphamide and with erlotinib 
have also been reported. The California Cancer Consortium in collaboration with the 
Princess Margaret and Chicago Phase II Consortia [75] treated seventy patients with 
bevacizumab 10 mg/kg every two weeks with oral cyclophosphamide, 50 mg daily. The 
progression-free survival at 6 months was 56% with a median time to progression of 7.2 
months. Partial responses were observed in 17 patients (24%). Grade 3 and 4 adverse 
events included hypertension, fatigue, and pain. Four episodes of gastrointestinal 
perforation or fistula were observed. In addition, two episodes each of CNS ischemia and 
pulmonary hypertension, and one episode each of gastrointestinal bleeding and wound 
healing complication were observed. There were three treatment-related deaths.  Levels 
of VEGF, E-selectin, and thrombospondin-1 were not associated with clinical outcome. 
The Chicago Phase II Consortium in collaboration with the California Cancer 
Consortium and the Princess Margaret Consortium treated 13 patients with bevacizumab 
15 mg/kg every three weeks with erlotinib 150 mg orally daily. [76] There were two 
major objective responses, one complete response of 16+ month duration and one partial 
response of 11 month (ORR 15%). Seven patients had a best response of stable disease. 
Grade 3 or 4 adverse events included anemia (1), nausea (2), vomiting (1), hypertension 
(1), and diarrhea (2).  Two patients had fatal gastrointestinal perforations. 
Based on this pre-clinical and clinical data suggesting additive or synergistic activity of 
these agents in epithelial ovarian cancer the efficacy of the combination of bevacizumab 
and temsirolimus in patients with persistent or recurrent ovarian cancer will be evaluated. 
Hepatocellular carcinoma 
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the 5th most common cancer worldwide with a rising 
incidence in the USA over the past three decades [77], [78], [79]. Worldwide, HCC is the 
third leading cause of cancer death after lung cancer and gastric cancer. The most 
common risk factors for development of HCC are chronic Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C 
infection and alcoholic cirrhosis. Many patients will have poor underlying liver function 
as a result of these co-morbidities [80]. 
The prognosis of HCC is poor. At presentation the majority of patients (70-85%) already 
have unresectable disease. Patients who present with localized disease (solitary nodule 
<5cm or up to 3 nodules <3cm each) may be eligible for surgical resection, 
transplantation or loco regional therapy such as chemoembolization or radiofrequency 
ablation (RFA) [81]. However, for those who do receive potentially curative surgery, 
recurrence rates are up to 50% within 2 years. For these patients who do relapse or 
progress, and for those patients who present with advanced disease, the prognosis is poor 
with survival measured in months. Poor underlying liver function in many patients, and 
the lack of effective systemic therapies are the main factors leading to poor survival in 
these patients [79, 82]. In advanced disease, systemic chemotherapy has not been shown 
to prolong survival. A 1997 meta-analysis of 27 chemotherapy trials concluded that non- 
surgical therapies were either ineffective or minimally effective [83]. 
Expectations for advancement in drug therapy for HCC patients lie with targeted agents. 
It is well recognized that many mutations and aberrant cell pathways drive primary liver

tumorigenesis. Even when comparing HCCs with similar etiologies there is tremendous 
molecular heterogeneity, suggesting that therapeutic advancements may require 
simultaneous targeting of more than one molecular pathway [84]. Targeting VEGF and 
mTOR pathways are 2 of the most promising strategies currently in HCC drug 
development. 
VEGF is over-expressed in HCC, and the level of expression correlates with tumor grade. 
[85], and reviewed in [84]. Targeting angiogenesis is therefore an attractive approach in 
treating HCC, and anti-angiogenesis drugs such as sorafenib or bevacizumab have 
already demonstrated activity. 
Sorafenib is a multikinase inhibitor with anti-angiogenic, pro-apoptotic and Raf kinase 
inhibitory activity. Following a phase II trial suggesting efficacy of sorafenib in HCC 
[86], a phase III randomized, placebo controlled trial in patients with advanced HCC with 
preserved liver function (Child-Pugh A) was performed. Treatment with sorafenib was 
associated with a statistically significant improvement in overall survival (10.7 versus 7.9 
months, Hazard Ratio for death 0.69, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.55-0.87, p<0.001), 
time to radiologic progression (5.5 versus 2.8 months, p<0.001) and disease control rate 
(43% versus 32%, p-0.002).[87]. In both the phase II and phase III studies, partial 
responses were uncommon (<5%) and no complete responses were observed. Therefore it 
appears that sorafenib works primarily as a cytostatic agent. In a subsequent Asian- 
Pacific phase III trial presented by Leung et al at ASCO 2008, sorafenib also impacted 
significantly survival in these very advanced HCC patients. These trials established 
sorafenib as a new reference standard of care in advanced HCC and serve to help validate 
the targeted agent approach in this disease. However given the absolute benefit for HCC 
patients is quite modest, further drug development is needed. 
Bevacizumab has shown promising activity in a single arm phase II trial (NCI protocol 
number 5611) in advanced HCC patients [88]. The study included 46 patients, of whom 6 
had objective responses (13%, 95% CI: 3-23%), and 65% were progression-free at 6 
months.  Median PFS was 6.9 months (95% CI: 6.5-9.1 months); overall survival was 
53% at 1 year, 28% at 2 years, and 23% at 3 years. Grade 3-4 adverse events included 
hypertension (15%), thrombosis (6%, including 4% arterial thrombosis); Grade 3 or 
higher hemorrhage occurred in 11% of patients, including one fatal variceal bleed, 
although more rigorous screening for risk of bleeding appeared to reduce the incidence of 
these complications. Bevacizumab was associated with significant reductions in tumor 
enhancement by DCE MRI, and reductions in circulating VEGF-A and SDF-1 levels. 
The response rate of 13% in HCC with single agent bevacizumab suggests it is one of the 
more active agents studied to date in HCC and as good or better than seen in many other 
solid tumors where the drug has proven benefit. 
The study of drugs that target mTOR are still preliminary in HCC but single agent phase 
I/II trials are underway. Studies in HCC animal models suggest mTOR is a promising 
therapeutic target in HCC [89], [90]. These models also suggest additive tumor control 
with dual m-TOR and VEGF targeting. The recognized toxicity profile of temsirolimus 
at the dose and schedule used in this study is likely to be quite manageable in an HCC 
population with preserved liver function (Child-Pugh A) and good PS.

As mTOR inhibitors have pre-clinical evidence in HCC and VEGF inhibitors have 
proven benefit, there is a good foundation to combine these 2 drug classes to study 
potential additive or synergistic benefit to patients with HCC. In addition there is a strong 
scientific rationale that combining bevacizumab with temsirolimus will maximize 
pathway inhibition by concurrently targeting parallel signaling mechanisms.  Based on 
the current safety data that temsirolimus can be safely combined with bevacizumab this 
combination is very attractive to take forward in HCC patients. 
Islet Cell Carcinoma 
Metastatic Islet cell carcinoma (ICC) has few effective and tolerable therapies. Although 
potentially responsive to chemotherapy, response rates are generally in the range of 30- 
40% with systemic chemotherapy.  Interferon is a toxic and minimally effective therapy. 
These tumors are very vascular clinically. Expression of VEGF and its receptors has 
been demonstrated in tumor tissue. Multi-center phase II trials of the receptor TKIs 
sunitinib and sorafenib have demonstrated anti-tumor efficacy in islet cell carcinoma. 
These agents are felt to work predominantly through an anti-angiogenic mechanism. 
Sunitinib demonstrated a 17% response rate and sorafenib resulted in an 11% partial 
response rate, with an additional 14% having a minor response (20-29% reduction in 
tumor size by RECIST). In addition, bevacizumab has demonstrated anti-tumor activity 
in closely related carcinoid tumors, and is currently undergoing evaluation in a 
randomized phase III trial along with Sandostatin versus interferon and Sandostatin. 
However bevacizumab has not been evaluated as a single agent in islet cell tumors. 
There is also evidence for a role for the mTOR pathway in ICC. Patients with tuberous 
sclerosis who have a mutation in the TSC2 gene which regulates mTOR tend to develop 
ICC. Increased IGF-1 expression is common in ICC and this may stimulate the mTOR 
pathway as well. A phase 2 trial of oral everolimus was reported with a 27% response 
rate, and there is a randomized phase III trial of everolimus vs best supportive care for 
ICC ongoing. A multi-center trial of temsirolimus was conducted in metastatic 
neuroendocrine tumors. A multi-center trial of CCI-779 was conducted in metastatic 
neuroendocrine tumors. Although a response rate of only 7% was observed, many 
patients had some tumor regression short of a PR, some with clinical improvement in 
symptoms, and an impressive median time-to progression of 10.6 months was 
demonstrated. 
Given the experience of efficacy and tolerability for both anti-angiogenic and anti-mTOR 
therapy in ICC, this combination warrants evaluation in islet cell cancer. 
Addendum: 
Rationale for additional cohort of patients to be treated with bevacizumab alone: 
Phase III trials of sunitinib and everolimus compared to placebo have now been 
completed and published.  Both trials enrolled patients with progressive disease within 

NCI Protocol # 8233

the previous 12 months and demonstrated clinically and statistically significant 
improvements in PFS compared to placebo. Both agents have been approved by the US 
FDA and become standard therapy for pancreatic NET (islet cell carcinoma). 
However, in these trials, where the population could have a longer time than in our study 
to show disease progression (and thus potentially more indolent disease) and were 
candidates for placebo, the objective response rates were low; 5% for everolimus and 9% 
for sunitinib. Patients in both trials would not have received prior VEGF TKI pathway or 
mTOR inhibitors. (refs: Yao et al NEJM 2/10/2011; 514-23; Raymond et al NEJM 
2/10/2011; 501-13). 
In the protocol specified interim analysis of the first 25 patients with ICC on this trial 
(MC0845), a confirmed response rate of 52% was documented. This is very promising 
activity in this disease, and suggests clinical synergy of this regimen, as compared with 
either single class of agent alone. There are no good data at this time regarding the single 
agent activity of bevacizumab in ICC, and this may be important to interpreting the 
results of the current combination trial as well as CALGB 80701 (see below). 
 
CALGB 80701 is an open intergroup trial that evaluates further the combined 
mTOR/VEGF pathway. This trial is a randomized phase II trial of either everolimus or 
everolimus combined with bevacizumab in patients with progressive metastatic ICC. 
Prior VEGFR TKI is allowed, but not mandated in this trial. Patients with prior mTOR 
inhibitor are excluded. This trial may provide further information regarding the activity 
of the combined targeted agents. If there are sufficient patients enrolled with prior anti 
VEGFR therapy, it may also provide some information regarding the activity in these 
previously treated patients. 
Given the efficacy and safety data of the combination in this trial to date, we propose to 
add an additional cohort of patients to explore the activity of single-agent bevacizumab in 
ICC. This may provide information that informs future trial design in ICC in addition to 
that from our current trial and CALGB 80701. These patients will be treatment naïve for 
both mTOR inhibitor and VEGFR TKI. 
Addendum: Due to the widespread use of everolimus and sunitinib as first line therapy 
for these patients, enrollment of treatment naïve patients has proven difficult. We will 
expand the eligibility to include patients with prior mTOR inhibitor use, but not Anti- 
VEGFR TKI which will reflect the practice patterns currently in place. 
Carcinoid Tumors 
Hypervascularity of the tumors is the hallmark characteristic of carcinoid tumors and 
VEGF is found to be a critical pro-angiogenic factor in carcinoid tumors. Using 
immunohistochemistry, strong, weak, and negative VEGF expression was observed in 
32%, 54%, and 14% respectively among 50 cases of human gastrointestinal 
neuroendocrine tumors [27]. Furthermore, VEGF expression in this study was associated 
with poor progression free survival (P = .02).  In the pre-clinical studies, bevacizumab

did not inhibit the growth of human carcinoid cells in vitro but significantly reduced 
tumor angiogenesis and impaired tumor growth in animal model of carcinoids. Based on 
this rationale for targeting angiogenesis in carcinoid tumors, a phase II clinical trial using 
bevacizumab was conducted in patients with carcinoid tumors and showed promising 
antitumor activity [91]. Forty-four patients on stable doses of octreotide were randomly 
assigned to 18 weeks of treatment with bevacizumab or PEG interferon alpha-2b. At 
disease progression (PD) or at the end of 18 weeks (whichever occurred earlier), patients 
received bevacizumab plus PEG interferon until progression. Bevacizumab in this trial 
was administered at dose of 15 mg/kg IV every 3 weeks in combination with standard 
dose of long acting octreotide. Among 22 patients enrolled in the “bevacizumab first” 
arm, 18% partial response and 77% stable disease was noted with 18-week progression 
free survival of 95% during the bevacizumab alone phase. In addition to clinical activity, 
49% and 28% decrease in tumor blood flow assessed by functional CTs at day 2 and 
week 18 was noted in these patients. Common grade 3-4 AEs included hypertension 
(36%), fatigue (18%), headache (5%) and vomiting (5%). 
In a phase II study of temsirolimus in 37 patients with advanced progressive 
neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC), 21 patients with carcinoid tumors received intravenous 
weekly doses of 25 mg of temsirolimus [92]. Partial response rate of 5%, median time to 
progression of 6 months and 6-month progression free survival rate of 45% were noted in 
carcinoid tumor patients. The most frequent drug-related AE of all grades included: 
fatigue (78%), hyperglycemia (69%) and rash/desquamation (64%). Pharmacodynamic 
analysis revealed effective mTOR pathway down regulation. 
Based on the safety and moderate anti-tumor activity of single agent bevacizumab and 
temsirolimus in patients with carcinoid tumor, activity of combination therapy in patients 
with metastatic carcinoid tumors will be evaluated.

5.22 Pain medications are allowed. 
5.23 Antiemetic therapy is allowed. 
5.24 Zoledronic acid can be continued in patients with bone metastases and/or 
hypercalcemia if it was started prior to treatment initiation. 
5.25 Bevacizumab specific general patient monitoring and supportive care 
guidelines: 
5.251 
Patients should be carefully monitored during the treatment phase 
and then followed appropriately.  Prior to each treatment, the 
patient should be carefully assessed, with special attention to blood 
pressure and bleeding events as well as other adverse events. 
Decisions for retreatment or dose modifications/interruption should 
follow the guidelines in Section 6.0. 
5.252 
Patients who have an on-going study agent-related serious adverse 
event upon study completion or at discontinuation from the study 
will be contacted by the investigator or his/her designee 
periodically until the event is resolved or determined to be 
irreversible. 
5.253 
Hypertension: Blood pressure should be assessed at least weekly 
during the first cycle and before each administration of 
bevacizumab. High blood pressure may require initiation or 
increase in hypertensive medication according to routine practice. 
Bevacizumab treatment modifications due to hypertension should 
follow instructions in Section 6.0. 
5.254 
Therapeutic anticoagulation: For patients on therapeutic 
anticoagulation, PT INR or PTT (which ever appropriate) should 
be monitored closely during bevacizumab therapy. Bevacizumab 
should be held if the coagulation parameters are higher then the 
intended therapeutic range (see Section 6.0). 
5.255 
Surgery and wound complication issues and surgery: The 
appropriate interval from discontinuation of bevacizumab to 
subsequent elective surgery required to reduce the risk of impaired 
wound healing has not been determined. Decision on such an 
interval should take into consideration the half-life of 
bevacizumab. It is generally recommended that bevacizumab 
should be discontinued at least 4-8 weeks prior to major elective 
surgery. In addition, bevacizumab should not be restarted until at 
least 4 weeks after major surgery provided that the wound has 
adequately healed; in cases of high risk procedures such as liver

resection, thoracotomy or neurosurgery, it is recommended that 
bevacizumab be resumed no earlier than 8 weeks after surgery. 
5.26 Temsirolimus specific general patient monitoring and supportive care 
guidelines: 
5.261 
Temsirolimus is a CYP3A4 substrate. Avoid concomitant 
treatment of temsirolimus with potent CYP3A4 inhibitors and 
agents that have CYP3A4 induction potential.  (Appendix D) 
 
5.3 
Duration of Therapy 
In the absence of treatment delays due to adverse event(s) felt to be study drug- 
related, treatment may continue until one of the following criteria applies: 
▪ 
Disease progression, 
▪ 
Intercurrent illness that prevents further administration of treatment, 
▪ 
Unacceptable adverse event(s), 
▪ 
Treatment delay of greater than 4 weeks 
▪ 
Withdrawn consent 
▪ 
Changes in the patient’s condition render the patient unacceptable for 
further treatment in investigator’s judgment. 
▪ 
Need for radiation therapy for symptomatic disease. 
 
5.4 
Duration of Follow Up 
Patients will be followed for three years from registration or until death, whichever 
occurs first. Patients removed from treatment for unacceptable adverse events will be 
followed until resolution or stabilization of the adverse event.

ADVERSE EVENTS:  LIST AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS 
 
7.1 
CTCAE v 3.0 
This study will utilize the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 
v3.0 for adverse event (AE) monitoring and reporting. The CTCAE v3.0 can be 
downloaded from the CTEP home page (http://ctep.info.nih.gov/reporting/ctc.html). All 
appropriate treatment areas should have access to a copy of the CTCAE v3.0. 
7.11 
Adverse event monitoring and reporting is a routine part of every clinical 
trial. First, identify and grade the severity of the event using the CTCAE. 
Next, determine whether the event is expected or unexpected (as reflected 
with the CTEP Agent Specific Adverse Event List [ASAEL], see Section 
7.12) and if the adverse event is related to the medical treatment or 
procedure (see Section 7.13).  With this information, determine whether 
an adverse event should be reported as an expedited report (see Section 
7.2) or as part of the routinely reported clinical data (see Sections 7.2 and 
16.3). AEs reported as expedited must also be reported in routine study 
data submissions. 
Expedited adverse event reporting under a CTEP Investigational New 
Drug Application (IND) requires submission of an CTEP Adverse Event 
Expedited Reporting System (CTEP-AERS) report(s). Other expedited 
reporting requirements and systems may also apply. Expedited reports are 
to be completed within the timeframes and via the mechanisms specified 
in Section 7.2. 
In the rare occurrence when Internet connectivity is lost, an AE report may 
be submitted using CTEP’s Adverse Event Expedited Report-Single Agent 
or Multiple Agent paper template (available at http://ctep.cancer.gov) and 
faxed to 301-230-0158. A 24-hour notification is to be made to CTEP by 
telephone at 301-897-7497, only when Internet connectivity is disrupted. 
Once Internet connectivity is restored, an AE report submitted on paper or 
a 24-hour notification phoned in must be entered electronically into 
CTEP-AERS by the original submitter at the local institution. 
ALL expedited reports submitted via the secure CTEP-AERS application 
must also be copied to the P2C Coordinating Center Quality Control 
Specialist for this protocol (for MC0845) via fax (507-266-7240). 
Those AEs that do not require expedited reporting will be reported to 
CTEP in routine (CDUS) study data submissions by the CTSU Data 
Operations Center. Therefore, AEs reported through CTEP-AERS must 
also be reported in routine study data submissions to CTSU Data 
Operations Center (see Sections 7.2 and 16.3). 
7.12 Expected vs. Unexpected Events 

NCI Protocol # 8233 
Local Protocol # MC0845 
NCI Version Date:  September 6, 2016 
45 
 
Agents provided under a CTEP IND: 
• Expected AEs for expedited reporting purposes are listed on the 
ASAEL. The ASAEL is a component of the Comprehensive Adverse 
Events and Potential Risks List (CAEPR). Refer to Section 15.0 of 
this protocol to locate the CAEPR for the CTEP IND agent(s). 
• Unexpected AEs are those not listed in the ASAEL. 
 
7.13 
Assessment of Attribution 
When assessing whether an adverse event is related to a medical treatment or 
procedure, the following attribution categories are utilized: 
Definite - The adverse event is clearly related to the investigational 
agent(s). 
Probable - The adverse event is likely related to the investigational 
agent(s). 
Possible - The adverse event may be related to the investigational 
agent(s). 
Unlikely - The adverse event is doubtfully related to the investigational 
agent(s). 
Unrelated - The adverse event is clearly NOT related to the investigational 
agent(s).

Note: All deaths on study must be reported using expedited reporting regardless of 
causality.  Attribution to treatment or other cause should be provided. 
• Expedited AE reporting timelines defined: 
➢ “24 hours; 5 calendar days” – The investigator must initially report the AE via 
CTEP-AERS within 24 hours of learning of the event followed by a complete 
CTEP-AERS report within 5 calendar days of the initial 24-hour report. 
➢ “10 calendar days” - A complete CTEP-AERS report on the AE must be submitted 
within 10 calendar days of the investigator learning of the event. 
• Any medical event equivalent to CTCAE grade 3, 4, or 5 that precipitates 
hospitalization (or prolongation of existing hospitalization) must be reported 
regardless of attribution and designation as expected or unexpected with the 
exception of any events identified as protocol-specific expedited adverse event 
reporting exclusions. 
• Any event that results in persistent or significant disabilities/incapacities, congenital 
anomalies, or birth defects must be reported via CTEP-AERS if the event occurs 
following treatment with an agent under a CTEP IND. 
• Use the NCI protocol number and the protocol-specific patient ID provided during 
trial registration on all reports. 
ALL expedited reports submitted to CTEP must be simultaneously copied to the 
Coordinating Center Control Specialist (for MC0845) via fax (507-266-7240).

PHARMACEUTICAL INFORMATION 
8.1 
Temsirolimus (Torisel®) (NSC # 683864) 
Pharmaceutical Information 
A list of the adverse events and potential risks associated with the investigational agent 
administered in this study can be found in Section 8.13. 
Temsirolimus (Torisel®) (NSC 683864) 
Chemical Name: 
Sirolimus 42-ester with 2,2-bis (hydroxymethyl)-propionic acid 
Other Names: 
temsirolimus, Torisel®, Rapamycin analog, WAY-130779 
Classification: 
Cell cycle inhibitor 
Molecular Formula: C56H87NO16 
M.W.: 1030.30 Daltons 
Mode of Action: 
Temsirolimus [an ester of the immunosuppressive compound 
sirolimus, (rapamycin, Rapamune®)] blocks cell cycle progression 
from the G1 to the S phase by binding to the intracellular 
cytoplasmic protein, FK506 binding protein (FKBP) 12. This 
complex inhibits activity of the enzyme mTOR (mammalian target 
of rapamycin), inhibiting translation of several key proteins that 
regulate progression through the G1 phase in response to growth 
factors. Sirolimus, temsirolimus’ s major metabolite, also binds to 
FKBP12. 
How Supplied: 
TORISEL (temsirolimus) is supplied as a commercially labeled kit 
consisting of the following: 
▪ 
TORISEL (temsirolimus) injection (25 mg/mL). The 
TORISEL vial includes an overfill of 0.2 mL. Inert 
ingredients in the drug vial include dehydrated alcohol, d,l- 
alpha-tocopherol, propylene glycol, and anhydrous citric 
acid.

Step 1 
Inject 1.8 mL of DILUENT for TORISEL into the vial of 
TORISEL injection (25 mg/mL). Due to the intentional 0.2 mL 
overfill in the TORISEL injection vial, the resulting drug 
concentration will be 10 mg/mL. A total volume of 3 mL will be 
obtained. Mix well by gentle inversion of the vial. DO NOT 
SHAKE. Allow sufficient time for air bubbles to subside. 
Step 2 
Withdraw the required amount of TORISEL from the 10 mg/mL 
drug solution/diluent mixture prepared in Step 1. Further dilute 
with 0.9% sodium chloride injection immediately in glass or 
polyolefin containers to a final concentration between 0.04 mg/mL 
and 1 mg/mL. 
Storage: 
Refrigerate intact TORISEL kit at 2º-8ºC and protect from light. 
Stability: 
The 10 mg/mL drug solution/diluent mixture is stable for 24 hours 
at room temperature. 
Administer within 6 hours of the final dilution in 0.9% NaCl. 
 
Route of 
Administration: 
Intravenous with an appropriate in-line filter (i.e. 0.2 to 5 micron) 
for all temsirolimus doses equal to or greater than 10 mg. Do not 
use an inline filter for temsirolimus doses less than 10 mg. Do not 
expose to direct sunlight during administration. 
Incompatibilities: 
Avoid contact of the diluted product with polyvinyl chloride 
(PVC) equipment or devices that are plasticized with di- (2- 
ethylhexyl)pthalate (DEHP) to prevent DEHP leaching. Store 
diluted temsirolimus solutions in bottles (glass) or plastic bags 
(polyolefin or polypropylene).

Temsirolimus is compatible with most infusion sets that are acceptable with paclitaxel. 
Infusion sets which have been qualified for use with temsirolimus include the 
following: 
•Baxter vented paclitaxel set 
•Baxter unvented paclitaxel set 
•Abbott #11947 tubing set 
•Alaris #72953 tubing set 
 
Other non-PVC tubings can be used with the following in-line filters: 
•IV 6200 Disposable I.V. Filter 0.2 micron by EPS®, Inc 
•IV 6120 Disposable I.V. Filter 1.2 micron by EPS®, Inc 
•LV 5000 Large Volume 5 micron Conical Filter by B.Braun 
•Baxter Paclitaxel IV 0.2 micron filter set (2C7555) 
•Codan 5 micron monofilter 
•Alaris extension filter set #20350E 
Other polyethersulfone filters may be used. 
Potential Drug Interactions: 
The combination of temsirolimus and sunitinib resulted in dose limiting toxicity 
at low doses of both agents. Avoid concomitant sunitinib during temsirolimus 
treatment. 
Temsirolimus and warfarin may interact to increase INR. Monitor warfarin 
patient’s PT/INR after starting and stopping temsirolimus. 
The combination of temsirolimus and ACE inhibitors resulted in angioedema-type 
reactions (including delayed reactions occurring up to 2 months after initiation of 
therapy). 
Patient Care Implications: 
For hypersensitivity prophylaxis, give diphenhydramine 25-50 mg orally or by 
I.V. (or comparable antihistamine) approximately 30 minutes before starting 
temsirolimus infusion.  Infuse over 30 minutes. 
If a patient develops a hypersensitivity reaction despite diphenhydramine 
pretreatment, stop the infusion and wait 30 to 60 minutes (depending upon the 
reaction severity). At the physician’s discretion, it may be possible to resume 
treatment by administering an H2 blocker approximately 30 minutes before 
restarting the infusion. The manufacturer recommends famotidine 20 mg IV, 
rather than cimetidine, because it lacks reported drug interactions. Re-attempt 
infusion at a slower rate, possibly over one hour.

5Hypersensitivity /infusion reactions (including some life threatening and rare fatal reactions), including 
and not limited to flushing, chest pain, dyspnea, hypotension, apnea, loss of consciousness, 
hypersensitivity, and anaphylaxis, have been associated with the administration of temsirolimus. These 
reactions can occur very early in the first infusion, but may also occur with subsequent infusions. Patients 
should be monitored early during infusion and appropriate supportive care should be available. 
Temsirolimus infusion should be interrupted in all patients with severe infusion reactions and appropriate 
medical care administered. A risk-benefit assessment should be done prior to the continuation of 
temsirolimus therapy in patients with severe life-threatening reactions. 
6Infections:  Bacterial and viral infections including opportunistic infections have been reported in 
subjects. Infections may originate in a variety of organ systems/body regions and may be associated with 
normal or grade 3-4 neutropenia. Bacterial and viral infections have included cellulitis, herpes zoster, 
herpes simplex, bronchitis, abscess, pharyngitis, urinary tract infection (including dysuria hematuria, 
cystitis, and urinary frequency), rhinitis folliculitis, pneumonia, and upper respiratory tract infection. 
7Infection includes all 75 sites of infection under the INFECTIONS AND INFESTATIONS SOC. 
8Wound Dehiscence: The use of temsirolimus has been associated with abnormal wound healing. 
Therefore, caution should be exercised with the use of temsirolimus in the perisurgical period. 
9Cholesterol High: The use of temsirolimus in subjects has been associated with increases in serum 
levels of triglycerides and cholesterol. This may require initiation of or increase in the dose of lipid- 
lowering agents. 
10Thrombocytopenia and Neutropenia: Grades 3 and 4 thrombocytopenia and/or neutropenia have been 
observed at higher frequency in subjects with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). 
11Hyperglycemia/Glucose Intolerance: The use of temsirolimus in subjects was associated with increases 
in serum glucose level. This may result in the need for an increase in the dose of, or initiation of, insulin 
and/or oral hypoglycemic agent therapy. 
12Acute Kidney Injury: Renal failure (including fatal outcome) has been observed in subjects receiving 
temsirolimus for advanced RCC and/or with pre-existing renal insufficiency. 
13Interstitial Lung Disease: There have been cases of nonspecific interstitial pneumonitis, including rare 
fatal reports. Some subjects were asymptomatic with pneumonitis detected on computed tomography 
scan or chest radiograph. Others presented with symptoms such as dyspnea, cough, and fever. Some 
subjects required discontinuation of temsirolimus or treatment with corticosteroids and/or antibiotics, while 
some subjects continued treatment without additional intervention. 
14Gastrointestinal hemorrhage includes Anal hemorrhage, Cecal hemorrhage, Colonic hemorrhage, 
Duodenal hemorrhage, Esophageal hemorrhage, Esophageal varices hemorrhage, Gastric hemorrhage, 
Hemorrhoidal hemorrhage, Ileal hemorrhage, Intra-abdominal hemorrhage, Jejunal hemorrhage, Lower 
gastrointestinal hemorrhage, Oral hemorrhage, Pancreatic hemorrhage, Rectal hemorrhage, 
Retroperitoneal hemorrhage, and Upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage under the GASTROINTESTINAL 
DISORDERS SOC.

Note: Intracerebral Bleeding: Subjects with central nervous system (CNS) tumors (primary CNS tumors 
or metastases) and/or receiving anticoagulation therapy may be at an increased risk of intracerebral 
bleeding (including fatal outcomes) while receiving therapy with temsirolimus (CCI-779, Torisel). 
Note: Temsirolimus (CCI-779, Torisel) in combination with other agents could cause an exacerbation of 
any adverse event currently known to be caused by the other agent, or the combination may result in 
events never previously associated with either agent. 
 
8.14 
Drug procurement: temsirolimus may be requested by the Principal 
Investigator (or their authorized designees) at each participating institution. 
Pharmaceutical Management Branch (PMB) policy requires that the agent be 
shipped directly to the institution where the patient is to be treated. PMB does 
not permit the transfer of agents between institutions (unless prior approval 
from PMB is obtained). Completed Clinical Drug Requests (NIH-986) should 
be submitted to the PMB by fax (301) 480-4612 or mailed to the 
Pharmaceutical Management Branch, CTEP, DCTD, NCI, 9000 Rockville 
Pike, EPN Rm. 7149, Bethesda, MD 20892. 
The Investigator, or a responsible party designated by the investigator, must 
maintain a careful record of the inventory and disposition of all agents 
received from DCTD using the NCI Drug Accountability Record Form. See 
the CTEP home page for Policy and Guidelines for Accountability and 
Storage of Investigational Drugs 
(http://ctep.info.nih.gov/Policies/AcctabilitystorageInvDrugs.htm). 
8.15 
Nursing guidelines 
8.151 Hypersensitivity reactions have been observed in some patients 
shortly after beginning the temsirolimus infusion (and ending 
shortly after stopping the infusion). Signs and symptoms have 
included flushing of the face and neck (and in some cases also 
involving the extremities and trunk), description of feeling hot, 
uncomfortable, and/or anxious, chest pain/tightness, shortness of 
breath, decrease in oxygen saturation and cyanosis, hypotension, 
lightheadedness, periorbital puffiness, description of feeling like 
the patient’s head was swelling, nausea, back pain, numbness and 
tingling of hands/feet/face, and difficulty speaking. Some patients 
have been able to receive subsequent infusions following pre- 
medication with diphenhydramine with or without corticosteroids 
and/or histamine H2-receptor antagonist. Pre-medication with 
diphenhydramine now is being used in all new patients to try to 
prevent the occurrence of these reactions. If a patient begins to 
develop a hypersensitivity reaction despite pretreatment with 
diphenhydramine, the infusion should be stopped. It may be 
possible to resume treatment after waiting at least 30-60 minutes 
(depending upon the severity of the reaction) by administering a 

NCI Protocol # 8233 
Local Protocol # MC0845 
NCI Version Date:  September 6, 2016 
58 
 
histamine H2-receptor antagonist approximately 30 minutes before 
restarting the temsirolimus infusion. Famotidine 20 mg IV is the 
recommended agent. The rate of the temsirolimus infusion also 
may be slowed, administered over 1 hour. All patients should be 
monitored closely while receiving the temsirolimus infusion. 
8.152 Treat stomatitis symptomatically – may try dabbing vitamin E oil 
on lesions. Do not swallow oil. Advise frequent and careful oral 
hygiene. 
8.563 Drug may cause hypocalcemia and/or hypophosphatemia. Instruct 
patient to report any persistent muscle aching, muscle weakness, 
nocturia, or polyuria.  Encourage hydration. 
 
8.154 Monitor CBC closely. Instruct patient to report any signs or 
symptoms of infection. The degree of immunosuppression may be 
enhanced if corticosteroids are being used concurrently. 
8.155 Instruct patient to report any unusual and/or persistent bruising or 
bleeding to the health care team. 
8.156 Headache may occur. Tylenol may benefit. Instruct patient to 
report any headache that is not relieved. 
8.157 Libido may be affected and sexual performance may be affected. 
Patients and their partners may wish to discuss intimacy issues. 
8.157 Assess patient’s list of medications (including OTC drugs) closely. 
Patient should avoid taking any medications that inhibit or induce 
the CYP3A pathway of the P450 system. Instruct patient that they 
should check with the health care team before starting any new 
medication, including over the counter medications. 
8.159 Nausea and vomiting may occur. Administer antiemetics as 
ordered and assess for their effectiveness. 
8.160 Diarrhea may also occur. Administer antidiarrheals as needed and 
assess for their effectiveness. 
8.161 Monitor cholesterol and triglyceride levels. 
8.162 Instruct diabetic that hyperglycemia may occur. Blood glucose 
should be monitored closely and any uncontrolled episodes of 
hyperglycemia should be reported to the health care team 
immediately.

adverse reactions occur after the second dose, administer subsequent doses over a minimum of 
30 minutes. If infusion-related adverse reactions occur, all subsequent infusions should be 
administered over the shortest period that was well tolerated. 
To insure complete delivery of bevacizumab, flush the IV infusion line with 0.9% sodium 
chloride. The following are two recommended methods for flushing the bevacizumab IV 
infusion line: 
1. When the bevacizumab infusion is complete, add an additional 50mL of 0.9% sodium 
chloride for injection to the bevacizumab infusion bag. Continue the infusion until a volume 
equal to that of the volume contained in the tubing has been administered. 
2. Replace the empty bevacizumab infusion bag with a 50mL bag of 0.9% sodium chloride for 
injection and infuse a volume equal to the volume contained in the tubing. 
Please note: the flush is not included in the total recommended infusion times.

8.23 
Nursing Guidelines: 
 
8.231 Monitor patients closely for infusion type reactions, including 
fever, chills, myalgias, rigors, or other allergic reactions.  While 
this is less likely given that bevacizumab is a humanized antibody, 
there still exists the potential for severe allergic reactions. If these 
signs or symptoms occur stop the infusion immediately and contact 
MD. Have emergency equipment nearby and be prepared to 
administer emergency treatment as ordered by MD. 
8.232 Monitor urine dipstick per protocol test schedule. 
8.233 Evaluate IV site regularly for signs of infiltration. 
8.234 Bleeding in the absence of thrombocytopenia is a dose limiting 
toxicity. Monitor patient closely for hemorrhagic events, including 
CNS hemorrhage, epistaxis, hematemesis and hemoptysis. Most 
cases of bleeding have occurred at the tumor site. Advise patient 
about the potential for bleeding or thrombosis. 
8.235 In patients receiving treatment for lung cancer, hemoptysis and 
pulmonary hemorrhage occurred in up to 10% of patients in one 
study.  Monitor these patients especially closely. 
8.236 Patient may experience grade 1-2 nausea, however vomiting is 
uncommon. Medicate as ordered and monitor for effectiveness. 
8.237 Monitor for skin rash, instruct patient to report to MD. 
8.238 a Monitor blood pressure. Administer antihypertensives as ordered 
by MD. 
8.239 aMonitor for signs and symptoms of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or 
pulmonary embolism (PE), or myocardial infarction (MI) including 
new or worsening angina. These have been reported with therapy. 
Instruct patient to report any calf pain, chest pain or SOB to MD 
immediately. 
8.239b Asthenia and headache were reported during therapy (in up to 70% 
and 50% of patients respectively). Administer acetaminophen as 
needed.  Monitor for its effectiveness.  Avoid the use of aspirin, or 
Redacted

Local Protocol # MC0845 
NCI Version Date:  September 6, 2016 
67 
 
ibuprofen as this may interfere with the coagulation cascade and 
further add to the risk of bleeding. 
8.239c Monitor CBC, including platelets. Instruct patient to report signs 
and symptoms of infection, unusual bruising or bleeding to the 
MD. 
8.239d Patient receiving warfarin therapy for thrombosis should have their 
PT or INR monitored weekly until two stable therapeutic levels are 
attained: for patients on warfarin for venous access prophylaxis, 
routine monitoring is satisfactory. 
8.239e A rare but serious complication of bevacizumab is wound 
dehiscence. Patients who have had recent surgery or have other 
open wounds should be monitored carefully. 
8.239f Gastrointestinal perforation with or without abdominal abscess is 
rare but possible. This may present itself as vague abdominal pain 
associated with constipation and vomiting.  Instruct patient to 
report abdominal pain to the MD. 
8.239g Reversible Posterior Leukoencephalopathy Syndrome (RPLS) is a 
rare (<1%) but serious condition. Presenting symptoms may 
include changes in mental status, visual disturbance, seizure, or 
other CNS changes. Patients with this syndrome generally had 
HTN as well, therefore BP monitoring is important. Instruct 
patient to report any mental status changes, visual changes, 
seizures, or other CNS changes to the MD immediately. These 
may be a sign of RPLS or more serious condition, such as 
hemorrhagic event in the CNS. 
8.3 
Agent Ordering/Accountability 
8.31 
Agent Ordering 
NCI supplied agents may be requested by the Principal Investigator (or 
their authorized designee) at each participating institution. Pharmaceutical 
Management Branch (PMB) policy requires that agent be shipped directly 
to the institution where the patient is to be treated. PMB does not permit 
the transfer of agents between institutions (unless prior approval from 
PMB is obtained.) The CTEP assigned protocol number must be used for 
ordering all CTEP supplied investigational agents. The responsible 
investigator at each participating institution must be registered with CTEP, 
DCTD through an annual submission of FDA form 1572 (Statement of 
Investigator), Curriculum Vitae, Supplemental Investigator Data Form 
(IDF), and Financial Disclosure Form (FDF). If there are several 
participating investigators at one institution, CTEP supplied 

NCI Protocol # 8233 
Local Protocol # MC0845 
NCI Version Date:  September 6, 2016 
68 
 
investigational agents for the study should be ordered under the name of 
one lead investigator at that institution. 
Agent may be requested by completing a Clinical Drug Request (NIH- 
986) and mailing it to the Pharmaceutical Management Branch, DCTD, 
NCI, 9000 Rockville Pike, EPN Room 7149, Bethesda, MD 20892-7422 
or faxing it to (301) 480-4612.  For questions call (301) 496-5725. 
8.32 
Agent Accountability 
Agent Inventory Records – The investigator, or a responsible party 
designated by the investigator, must maintain a careful record of the 
inventory and disposition of all agents received from DCTD using the NCI 
Drug Accountability Record Form (DARF). (See the CTEP home page at 
http://ctep.cancer.gov for the Procedures for Drug Accountability and 
Storage and to obtain a copy of the DARF and Clinical Drug Request 
form.) 
9. 
CORRELATIVE/SPECIAL STUDIES 
A number of laboratory correlates could be proposed to be incorporated in this trial. 
However at this stage it is unclear whether there is added value in performing such 
studies. The primary rationale for performing such studies to determine whether there are 
potential predictive markers of clinical activity or toxicity for this combination. Since we 
do not know whether there will be sufficient activity of the combination that would 
enable such an analysis it is premature to propose the actual studies to be performed. 
Furthermore, there is little information available about the sensitivity, specificity, 
precision, day to day, within patient and between patient variability in clinical samples 
for many of the biomarkers one may wish to propose. Nevertheless, data on the assay 
characteristics of a number of such biomarkers may be gleaned from ongoing studies 
where biomarker analysis is being performed such as the kidney cancer trial being 
performed by the Mayo Clinic Consortium. Other single agent trials being performed 
under NCI auspices may generate additional information that may inform the assay 
characteristics.  Thus we propose to collect, process and store genomic DNA, plasma, 
and archival tissue samples that will enable informed decisions to be made about what 
biomarkers would merit analysis. The actual analysis could be done by investigators who 
have obtained additional funding through a peer reviewed process. Such an application 
would have the information at hand of the clinical activity and/or toxicity of the 
combination. Possible markers that could be considered for analysis can include but are 
not limited to, tumor PTEN status, phospho Akt, serum VEGF, and sFLT levels, S6K and 
phospho S6K, cyclin D1, polymorphisms in drug metabolizing exzymes such as 
CYP3A4/5 and eNOS.

in the protocol.  The following materials are required for this protocol: 
 
• 
At least one (two if possible) H&E stained slides with 
representative tumor. 
• 
At least one (three, if possible) paraffin-embedded blocks with 
representative tumor. 
• 
If an institution is unable to release tissue paraffin-embedded tissue 
blocks, they must be willing to submit 12 consecutive unbaked, 
unstained sections cut at 10 microns mounted on charged slides. 
9.1.2 
Blood sample collection 
9.1.2.1 Samples will be collected processed and stored for biomarker studies 
related to the type of therapies used in this trial and the tumor types being 
treated. . One 7 ml EDTA tube of blood will be collected and centrifuged 
within 15 minutes. Plasma removed and stored at -70 until shipped. Buffy 
coat will be removed and stored at -70 until shipped. EDTA plasma and 
buffy coat should be shipped frozen on dry ice. 
9.1.3 
Sample Shipment 
All specimens should be correctly labeled with patient initials, P2C study-specific 
subject ID number, date of birth, P2C protocol number, and date of collection. 
NOTE: In the event that baseline specimens are available but the patient is not 
successfully registered to the protocol, do not submit the patient's specimens. 
Specimens should be shipped frozen on a cold pack and must be shipped for 
express/overnight delivery. 
Blood and Tissue Specimens: 
Kits are required for the collection of blood and tissue specimens. 
The kit contains supplies and instructions for collecting, processing, and 
shipping specimens. Collect and process all blood/blood products and 
tissue, according to specific kit instructions 
Participating institutions may obtain kits by completing and faxing 
the Supply Order Form (found in both the Forms Packet) to the 
number listed on the form. Fill out the site address to where the kits 
will be shipped on the Fax Supply form. Because we are now being 
charged for all outgoing kits, a small, but sufficient, supply of the 
specimen collection kits should be ordered prior to patient entry. Do 
not send the unused kits back to MML. 
Kits will be sent via FedEx® Ground at no additional cost to the 
participating institutions. Allow at least two weeks to receive the kits. 
Kits will arrive inside the shipping boxes.

Kits will not be sent via rush delivery service unless the participating 
institution provides their own FedEx® account number or alternate billing 
number for express service. Mayo Clinic Cancer Center will not cover 
the cost for rush delivery of kits. 
All samples must be collected Monday-Thursday ONLY. 
Label specimen tube(s) with protocol number, patient ID number, and 
time and date blood is drawn. 
The MML kits will contain a smart shipper label (white barcoded 
label) affixed to the shipping boxes. The smart shipper label is a pre- 
addressed return label, which replaces the need for an airbill. 
Shipping costs will be covered by Mayo Clinic Cancer Center if this 
box is used fro shipping specimens to MML

Treatment Evaluation Using RECIST (version 1.1) Criteria[93] 
11.1 
Schedule of Evaluations 
For the purposes of this study, patients should be reevaluated every 8 weeks. 
Determination of progression will be made according to the RECIST (version 1.1) 
criteria. 
11.2 
Definitions of Measurable and Non-Measurable Disease 
11.21 Measurable disease is defined as at least one lesion whose longest diameter 
can be accurately measured as 2.0 cm with chest X-ray or as ≥1.0 cm with 
CT scan, CT component of a PET/CT, or MRI.  Clinical lesions will only 
be considered measurable when they are superficial (e.g., skin nodules, 
palpable lymph nodes).  Lesions on chest x-ray are acceptable as 
measurable lesions when they are clearly defined and surrounded by 
aerated lung.  However, CT is preferable. 
11.22 Nodes with a short axis of >1.5 cm by CT are considered measurable and 
assessable as target lesions. Only the short axis measurement should be 
included in the sum of lesions in calculation of tumor response. Nodes that 
shrink to <1.0 cm short axis are considered normal. 
 
11.23 All other lesions (or sites of disease), including small lesions (longest 
diameter <2.0 cm with chest X-ray or as <1.0 cm with CT scan, CT 
component of a PET/CT, or MRI) are considered non-measurable disease. 
Bone lesions leptomeningeal disease, ascites, pleural/pericardial effusions, 
lymphangitis cutis/pulmonis, inflammatory breast disease, abdominal 
masses (not followed by CR or MRI), and cystic lesions are all non- 
measurable. 
11.3 
Guidelines for Evaluation of Measurable Disease 
11.31 Measurement Methods: All measurements should be recorded in metric 
notation (i.e., decimal fractions of centimeters) using a ruler or calipers. 
The same method of assessment and the same technique should be used to 
characterize each identified and reported lesion at baseline and during 
follow-up. For patients having only lesions measuring at least 1 cm to less 
than 2 cm must use spiral CT imaging for both pre- and post-treatment 
tumor assessments. Imaging-based evaluation is preferred to evaluation by 
clinical examination when both methods have been used at the same 
evaluation to assess the antitumor effect of a treatment. 

NCI Protocol # 8233 
Local Protocol # MC0845 
NCI Version Date:  September 6, 2016 
74 
 
11.32 Acceptable imaging modalities for measurable disease: CT scan 
(conventional and spiral), MRI, chest x-ray, and physical examination. 
 
• Conventional CT and MRI should be performed with cuts of 1.0 cm or 
less in slice thickness contiguously. 
• Spiral CT must be performed using a 5 mm contiguous reconstruction 
algorithm. This specification applies to tumors of the chest, abdomen, 
and pelvis, while head and neck tumors and those of the extremities 
require specific procedures. 
11.33 Measurement at Follow-up Evaluation: 
 
• A subsequent scan must be obtained 4 weeks following initial 
documentation of an objective status of either complete response (CR) 
or partial response (PR). 
• In the case of stable disease (SD), follow-up measurements must have 
met the SD criteria at least once after study entry at a minimum 
interval of 8 weeks (see Section 11.44). 
• The cytological confirmation of the neoplastic origin of any effusion 
that appears or worsens during treatment when the measurable tumor 
has met criteria for response or stable disease is mandatory to 
differentiate between response or stable disease (an effusion may be a 
side effect of the treatment) and progressive disease. 
• Cytologic and histologic techniques can be used to differentiate 
between PR and CR in rare cases (e.g., residual lesions in tumor types 
such as germ cell tumors, where known residual benign tumors can 
remain.) 
• New lesions on the basis of FDG-PET imaging can be identified 
according to the following: 
Negative FDG-PET at baseline, with a positive FDG-PET at follow-up 
is a sign of PD based on a new lesion. 
No FDG-PET at baseline and a positive FDG-PET at follow- 
up: 
If the positive FDG-PET at follow-up corresponds to a new site of 
disease confirmed by CT, this is PD. 
If the positive FDG-PET at follow-up is not confirmed as a new site of 
disease on CT, additional follow-up CT scans are needed to determine 
if there is truly progression occurring at that site (if so, the date of PD 
will be the date of the initial abnormal FDG-PET scan). 
If the positive FDG-PET at follow-up corresponds to a pre-existing 
site of disease on CT that is not progressing on the basis of the 
anatomic images, this is not PD. 
(A ‘positive’ FDG-PET scan lesion means one which is FDG avid 
with an uptake greater than twice that of the surrounding tissue) on the 
attenuation corrected image.

11.4 
Measurement of Effect 
11.41 Target Lesions 
All measurable lesions (as defined in Section 11.21) up to a maximum of 5 
lesions representative of all involved organs should be identified as target 
lesions and recorded and measured at baseline. If the protocol specified 
studies are performed, and there are fewer than 5 lesions identified (as there 
often will be), there is no reason to perform additional studies beyond those 
specified in the protocol to discover new lesions. For any one organ, no 
more than 2 lesions need 
to be measured. Target lesions should be selected on the basis of their size 
(lesions with the longest diameter) and their suitability for accurate 
repetitive measurements (either by imaging techniques or clinically). 
 
 
Baseline Sum of Diameters (BSD): A sum of the diameters [longest for 
non-nodal target lesions (see 11.21), short axis for target lymph nodes 
(see.11.22)] for all target lesions will be calculated and reported as the 
baseline sum of diameters. The BSD will be used as reference to further 
characterize any objective tumor response in the measurable dimension of 
the disease. 
Post-Baseline Sum of the Diameters (PBSD): A sum of the diameters 
[longest for non-nodal target lesions (see 11.21), short axis for target lymph 
nodes (see.11.22)] for all target lesions will be calculated and reported as 
the post-baseline sum of diameters. If the radiologist is able to provide an 
actual measure for the target lesion, that should be recorded, even if it is 
below 0.5 cm.  If the target lesion is believed to be present and is faintly 
seen but too small to measure, a default value of 0.5 cm should be assigned. 
If it is the opinion of the radiologist that the lesion has likely disappeared, 
the measurement should be recorded as 0 cm. 
The minimum sum of the diameters (MSD) is the minimum of the BSD and 
the PBSD.

11.42 Non-Target Lesions 
All other lesions (or sites of disease) should be identified as non-target 
lesions and should also be recorded at baseline. Measurements are not 
required, and these lesions should be followed in accord with 11.433. 
11.43 Response Criteria 
11.431 All identified sites of disease must be followed on re-evaluation. 
Specifically, a change in objective status to either a PR or CR 
cannot be done without rechecking all identified sites (i.e., target 
and non-target lesions) of pre-existing disease. 
11.432 Evaluation of Target Lesions 
• Complete Response (CR): All of the following must be true: 
a) Disappearance of all non-nodal target 
lesions 
b) Each target lymph node must have 
reduction   in short axis to < 1.0 cm. 
Partial Response (PR): 
At least a 30% decrease in the sum of 
the longest diameter of the non-nodal 
target lesions and the short axis of the 
target lymph nodes taking as reference 
the BSD (Section 11.41) 
• Progression (PD): 
At least one of the following must be 
true: 
a) At least one new malignant lesion 
or a lymph node whose short axis 
has increased to > 1.5 cm. 
b) At least a 20% increase in the sum 
of diameters of target lesions 
taking as reference the MSD. In 
addition, the sum must also 
demonstrate an absolute increase 
of at least 0.5 cm. 
c) See Section 11.33 for details in 
regards to the requirements for PD 
via FDG-PET imaging. 
• Stable Disease (SD): 
Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify 
for PR nor sufficient increase to 
qualify for PD taking as references 
the smallest sum LD.

cm. 
 
• Stable Disease (SD): 
Persistence of one or more non-target 
lesions 
• Progression (PD): 
At least one of the following must be true: 
a) At least one new malignant lesion 
b) Unequivocal progression of existing 
non-target lesions.  (Note: 
Unequivocal progression should not 
normally trump target lesion status. It 
must be representative of overall 
disease status change, not a single 
lesion increase.) 
c) See Section 11.33 for details in 
regards to the requirements for PD via 
FDG-PET imaging. 
 
NOTE:  Although a clear progression of “non-target” lesions only 
is exceptional, in such circumstances, the opinion of the treating 
physician will prevail, and the progression status will be confirmed 
at a later time by the study chair or a review panel. 
11.44 Overall objective status 
The overall objective status for an evaluation is determined by combining 
the patient’s status on target lesions, non-target lesions, and new disease as 
defined in the following table.

11.45 Residual Disease: In some circumstances it may be difficult to distinguish 
residual disease from normal tissue. When the evaluation of complete 
response depends upon this determination, it is recommended that the 
residual lesion be investigated (fine needle aspirate/biopsy) before 
confirming the complete response status. 
11.46 Symptomatic Deterioration: Patients with global deterioration of health 
status requiring discontinuation of treatment without objective evidence of 
disease progression at that time, and not either related to study treatment or 
other medical conditions, should be reported as PD due to “symptomatic 
deterioration.” Every effort should be made to document the objective 
progression even after discontinuation of treatment due to symptomatic 
deterioration: 
• Weight loss >10% of body weight. 
• Worsening of tumor-related symptoms. 
• Decline in performance status of >1 level on ECOG scale.

STATISTICAL CONSIDERATIONS 
13.1 
Study Overview 
This is a study in multiple tumor types treated with the combination of 
temsirolimus and bevacizumab. The five tumor types are of endometrium, ovary, 
hepatocellular, islet cell and carcinoid. The phase II trial is designed to assess 
treatment efficacy in terms of both tumor response and 6-month progression free 
survival. A modified two-stage Simon design[94] with fixed sample size is 
adopted for each of the five tumor groups respectively. This design will permit 
early stopping of the trial if there is strong evidence that the study regimen is 
inactive. 
13.11 Primary Endpoints 
The primary endpoint of this trial is treatment efficacy evaulated using 
both the tumor response rate and the 6-month progression free survival 
rate. Tumor response rate is the proportion of confirmed tumor responses. 
RECIST criteria will be used for response assessments.  A confirmed 
tumor response is defined to be either a CR or PR noted as the objective 
status on 2 consecutive evaluations at least 8 weeks apart. The tumor 
response rate is defined as the total number of efficacy-evaluable patients 
who achieved a complete or partial response according to the RECIST 
criteria divided by the total number of efficacy-evaluable patients enrolled 
on study. All patients meeting the eligibility criteria who have signed a 
consent form and have begun treatment will be evaluable for response. 
The 6-month progression free survival rate is the proportion of efficacy- 
evaluable patients progression-free 6 months from registration. The 6- 
month progression-free rate is defined as the total number of efficacy- 
evaluable patients on study without documentation of disease progression 
6 months from registration divided by the total number of efficacy- 

NCI Protocol # 8233 
Local Protocol # MC0845 
NCI Version Date:  September 6, 2016 
82 
 
evaluable patients enrolled on study. Patients who died without 
documentation of progression will be considered to have progressed on the 
date of their death. All patients meeting the eligibility criteria who have 
signed a consent form and have begun treatment will be evaluable for 6- 
month progression-free survival. 
13.12 Sample Size 
A maximum of 275 patients will be accrued to this trial if sufficient 
successes occur in all tumor types to be studied. The minimum number of 
patients to be accrued if there is insufficient activity to go to the second 
stage in any tumor type is 138. These estimates include an allowance for 
an extra 10% of patients to replace those deemed not evaluable due to 
ineligibility, major treatment violation, or cancellation. 
Specifically, we will accrue a maximum of 55 patients [25 (Stage 1) + 25 
(Stage 2) + 5 (10% over accrual)] for patients from each tumor group. 
The maximum sample size will be increased to 299 patients after the 
addition of 24 [ 21 plus 3 (10% over accrual)] islet cell cancer who will 
receive single-agent bevacizumab. 
13.13 Accrual Time and Study Duration 
Based on accrual history in these diseases at each of the N01 participating 
consortia, we anticipate accruing approximately 25 eligible patients (ie, 5 
–endometrial cancer, 6 –ovarian cancer, 5 – hepatocellular carcinoma, 4 – 
islet cell, 5 – carcinoid) per month. This estimate accounts for 10% over 
accrual for patients declared not evaluable due to ineligibility, major 
treatment violation, or cancellation. We expect the trial to be completed in 
17 months for endometrial cancer, 16 months for ovarian cancer, 17 
months for hepatocellular carcinoma, 20 months for islet cell cancer, 17 
months for carcinoid, which includes a 6-month temporary suspension 
once the initial stage of accrual is met and to allow patients to become 
evaluable for the primary endpoint. Accrual will be temporarily closed 
during the interim analysis only if patient accrual is rapid. However, 
temporarily closure for interim analysis for one tumor group should not 
affect the status of other tumor groups. The final analyses will begin 
approximately 17 months, 16 months, 17 months, 20 months, 17 months 
after accrual is opened to endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer, 
hepaocellular carcinoma, islet cell and carcinoid patients respectively. 
The accrual rate of islet cell patients treated with single agent 
bevacizumab is estimated to be 3 per month. We expect the accrual and 
analysis to be completed in 8 months for this additional cohort of islet cell 
cancer.

13.2 
Statistical Design 
A two-stage phase II clinical trial design has been chosen for each of the tumor 
groups such that under the assumption that tumor response and 6-month progression 
free survival are uncorrelated, there will be approximately 87%--92% chance of 
detecting the target tumor response rate or the target 6-month progression free 
survival rate at a 10% significance level. Instead of pursuing the optimal or minmax 
sample size as in Simon optimal design[94], a fixed sample size of 50 and a first stage 
sample size of 25 are used to assess efficacy for each of the five tumor groups. 
13.21a Endometrial Cancer Decision Rule 
A response rate of 25% and median progression free survival of 6 months 
were observed in the single agent activity of temsirolimus in patients who 
have recurrent or metastatic endometrial cancer [44]. To evaluate endometrial 
cancer, the largest response rate where the proposed treatment regimen would 
be considered ineffective in this population is 25%, and the smallest that 
would warrant further subsequent studies is 45%; the largest 6-month 
progression free survival rate where the proposed treatment regimen would be 
considered ineffective in this population is 50%, and the smallest that would 
warrant further subsequent studies is 70%. The following modified two-stage 
Simon design (Simon, 1989) uses 25 or 50 patients to test the null hypothesis 
that the true tumor response rate in the given patient population is at most 
25% AND the true 6-month progression-free survival rate is at most 50%. 
 
STAGE 1: Enter 25 patients into this study. If more than 7 of the first 25 evaluable 
patients enrolled achieved a confirmed tumor response during the first 6 
cycles of treatment OR more than 13 of the first 25 evaluable patients 
enrolled were progression free at 6 months then enrollment would continue 
to the second stage. If not, patient accrual will be terminated and the 
regimen would be considered inactive in this patient population. 
STAGE 2: Enter an additional 25 patients into this study. If at least 18 of the 
first 50 evaluable patients enrolled achieve a confirmed tumor 
response OR at least 31 of the first 50 evaluable patients enrolled are 
progression free at 6 months, consideration would be given to 
recommending this treatment for further testing in this patient 
population. 
13.21b Ovarian Cancer Decision Rule 
The Gynecology Oncology Group reported a single agent trial of bevacizumab 
in persistent or recurrent ovarian cancer [74], where the response rate was 
21% and 40.3% patients were progression-free for at least 6 months. To 
evaluate ovarian cancer, the largest response rate where the proposed 
treatment regimen would be considered ineffective in this population is 20%, 
and the smallest that would warrant further subsequent studies is 40%; the 
largest 6-month progression free survival rate where the proposed treatment 

NCI Protocol # 8233 
Local Protocol # MC0845 
NCI Version Date:  September 6, 2016 
84 
 
regimen would be considered ineffective in this population is 40%, and the 
smallest that would warrant further subsequent studies is 60%. The following 
modified two-stage Simon design[94] uses 25 or 50 patients to test the null 
hypothesis that the true tumor response rate in the given patient population is 
at most 20% AND the true 6-month progression-free survival rate is at most 
40%. 
STAGE 1: Enter 25 patients into this study. If more than 6 of the first 25 
evaluable patients enrolled achieved a confirmed tumor response 
during the first 6 cycles of treatment OR more than 10 of the first 25 
evaluable patients enrolled were progression free at 6 months then 
enrollment would continue to the second stage. If not, patient accrual 
will be terminated and the regimen would be considered inactive in 
this patient population. 
STAGE 2: Enter an additional 25 patients into this study. If at least 15 of 
the first 50 evaluable patients enrolled achieve a confirmed tumor 
response OR at least 26 of the first 50 evaluable patients enrolled 
are progression free at 6 months, consideration would be given to 
recommending this treatment for further testing in this patient 
population. 
13.21c Hepatocellular Carcinoma Decision Rule 
A single arm phase II trial of bevacizumab[88]reported an objective response 
rate 13% and 65% patients were progression-free at 6 months. Similarly, to 
evaluate hepatocellular carcinoma, the largest response rate where the 
proposed treatment regimen would be considered ineffective in this 
population is 10%, and the smallest that would warrant further subsequent 
studies is 25%; the largest 6-month progression free survival where the 
proposed treatment regimen would be considered ineffective in this 
population is 65%, and the smallest that would warrant further subsequent 
studies is 85%. The following modified two-stage Simon design[94] uses 25 
or 50 patients to test the null hypothesis that the true tumor response rate in 
the given patient population is at most 10% AND the true 6-month 
progression-free survival rate is at most 65%. 
 
STAGE 1: Enter 25 patients into this study. If more than 2 of the first 25 
evaluable patients enrolled achieved a confirmed tumor response 
during the first 6 cycles of treatment OR more than 18 of the first 25 
evaluable patients enrolled were progression free at 6 months then 
enrollment would continue to the second stage. If not, patient accrual 
will be terminated and the regimen would be considered inactive in 
this patient population. 

NCI Protocol # 8233 
Local Protocol # MC0845 
NCI Version Date:  September 6, 2016 
85 
 
STAGE 2: Enter an additional 25 patients into this study. If at least 9 of the 
first 50 evaluable patients enrolled achieve a confirmed tumor 
response OR at least 39 of the first 50 evaluable patients enrolled are 
progression free at 6 months, consideration would be given to 
recommending this treatment for further testing in this patient 
population. 
13.21d Islet Cell Cancer Decision Rule 
A multi-center trial of temsirolimus was conducted in metastatic 
neuroendocrine tumors with an observed response rate of 7% and an median 
time-to progression of 10.6 months[92]. Assuming a constant hazard rate, the 
median time-to progression of 10.6 months can be converted to an 
approximately 67.5% progression free rate at 6 months. Since some patients 
may be died from other causes than islet cell cancer, we estimate that 
progression free survival at 6 months would be a little lower at 60%. To 
evaluate islet cell cancer, the largest response rate where the proposed 
treatment regimen would be considered ineffective in this population is 5%, 
and the smallest that would warrant further subsequent studies is 20%; the 
largest 6-month progression free survival rate where the proposed treatment 
regimen would be considered ineffective in this population is 60%, and the 
smallest that would warrant further subsequent studies is 80%. The following 
modified two-stage Simon design[94]uses 25 or 50 patients to test the null 
hypothesis that the true tumor response rate in the given patient population is 
at most 5% AND the true 6-month progression-free survival rate is at most 
60%. Due to the slow progression of islet cell cancer, we will not temporarily 
close to patient accrual after Stage 1 unless patient accrual is very rapid or 
severe toxicity occurred. 
 
STAGE 1: Enter 25 patients into this study. If more than 2 of the first 25 
evaluable patients enrolled achieved a confirmed tumor response 
during the first 6 cycles of treatment OR more than 15 of the first 25 
evaluable patients enrolled were progression free at 6 months then 
enrollment would continue to the second stage. If not, patient accrual 
will be terminated and the regimen would be considered inactive in 
this patient population. 
STAGE 2: Enter an additional 25 patients into this study. If at least 6 of the 
first 50 evaluable patients enrolled achieve a confirmed tumor 
response OR at least 36 of the first 50 evaluable patients enrolled are 
progression free at 6 months, consideration would be given to 
recommending this treatment for further testing in this patient 
population. 
13.21e Carcinoid Decision Rule 

NCI Protocol # 8233 
Local Protocol # MC0845 
NCI Version Date:  September 6, 2016 
86 
 
A phase II clinical trial using bevacizumab was conducted in patients with 
carcinoid tumors showed promising antitumor activity [91] of a 18% partial 
response rate. A phase II study of temsirolimus in 37 patients with advanced 
progressive neuroendocrine carcinoma [92] reported a partial response rate of 
5% and 6-month progression free survival rate of 45% noted in carcinoid 
tumor patients. To evaluate carcinoid, the largest response rate where the 
proposed treatment regimen would be considered ineffective in this 
population is 15%, and the smallest that would warrant further subsequent 
studies is 35%; the largest 6-month progression free survival rate where the 
proposed treatment regimen would be considered ineffective in this 
population is 45%, and the smallest that would warrant further subsequent 
studies is 65%.  The following modified two-stage Simon design[94]uses 25 
or 50 patients to test the null hypothesis that the true tumor response rate in 
the given patient population is at most 15% AND the true 6-month 
progression-free survival rate is at most 45%. Due to the slow progression of 
Carcinoid, we will not temporarily close to patient accrual after Stage 1 unless 
patient accrual is very rapid or severe toxicity occurred. 
 
STAGE 1: Enter 25 patients into this study. If more than 5 of the first 25 
evaluable patients (evaluable patients are defined as patients who 
have received any dose of study drug on this trial) enrolled 
achieved a confirmed tumor response during the first 6 cycles of 
treatment OR more than 12 of the first 25 evaluable patients enrolled 
were progression free at 6 months then enrollment would continue to 
the second stage. If not, patient accrual will be terminated and the 
regimen would be considered inactive in this patient population. 
STAGE 2: Enter an additional 25 patients into this study. If at least 12 of the 
first 50 evaluable patients enrolled achieve a confirmed tumor 
response OR at least 28 of the first 50 evaluable patients enrolled are 
progression free at 6 months, consideration would be given to 
recommending this treatment for further testing in this patient 
population. 
13.21 f  Islet Cell Cancer Single Agent Bevacizumab Cohort Decision Rule 
The efficacy of single agent Bevacizumab will be compared against 
Sunitinib, an approved anti-VEGF therapy. Tumor response will be 
considered as the sole primary endpoint for this single agent 
Bevacizumab cohort of ICC patients. A phase II clinical trial of 
Sunitinib reported a median PFS of 7.7 months and response rates of 
16% (Kulke et al JCO, 2008). A randomized phase III clinical trial of 
Sunitinib vs placebo reported a median PFS of 11.4 months (71% PFS 
at 6 month) and response rate of 9%. (Raymond et al NEJM, 2011). To 
evaluate the efficacy of single agent Bevacizumab, we have modified 
the null and alternative hypothese to reflect that fact we are testing the 

NCI Protocol # 8233 
Local Protocol # MC0845 
NCI Version Date:  September 6, 2016 
87 
 
Response
superiority of Bevacizumab over Sunitinib. The largest response rate 
where the proposed treatment regimen would be considered ineffective 
in this population is 10%, and the smallest that would warrant further 
subsequent studies is 30%. The single-stage design uses 21 patients to 
test the null hypothesis that the true tumor response rate in the given 
patient population is at most 10%. We will reject the null hypothesis if 
we have at least 7 confirmed responses. 
 
 
13.22 
Power and Significance Level 
Assuming that the number of confirmed tumor responses and the number 
of 6-month progression-free survivors are binomially distributed and 
uncorrelated, the significance level is at most 10% and the probability of 
declaring that this regimen warrants further studies (i.e. statistical power) 
under various success proportions and the probability of stopping accrual 
after the first stage can be tabulated as a function of the true success 
proportion as shown in the following tables.

In this design, we assume that tumor response and 6-month progression-free 
survival are uncorrelated. Through investigating past NCCTG phase II 
metastatic breast cancer trials (N0032, N0234, and 98-32-53), tumor response 
and 6-month progression-free survival may have significantly non-zero 
positive correlation of roughly 0.50 in some settings.  Through simulation 
with various distributional assumptions and correlation levels, the significance 
level under the assumption of uncorrelated binary endpoints appears to be 
conservative (i.e. worst-case scenario) and the power under alternative 
hypothesis of tumor response rate and 6-month progression free survival rate 
appears greater than the specified level regardless of the level of correlation. 
For islet cell patient cohort treated with single agent bevacizumab, we have 
set the significance level around 10% and still maintain the the probability of 
declaring that this regimen warrants further studies (i.e. statistical power) 
above 80%. The sample size of 21 evaluable patients will be sufficient for 
testing Bevacizumab only based on the one-sided exact test of single 
proportion of 10% vs. 30%. 
13.23 
Other Considerations 
Adverse events, duration of response, overall survival, and the pace of 
accrual as well as other scientific discoveries or changes in standard of 
care will be taken into account in any decision to terminate this study 
earlier than designed. 
 
13.3 
Analysis Plan  
The following analyses will be conducted for each of the five tumor 
groups respectively except for a possible exploratory meta analysis at the 
very end of the study. However, the final conclusion of the study will be 
based on each of the separate analysis of the tumor groups. 
 
13.31 Primary Endpoint: 
All patients meeting the eligibility criteria who have signed a consent 
form and begun treatment will be considered evaluable for estimation of 

NCI Protocol # 8233 
Local Protocol # MC0845 
NCI Version Date:  September 6, 2016 
90 
 
the success probability. Those who die within 6 months will be 
considered to have had disease progression unless documented evidence 
clearly indicates no progression has occurred. 
In the event that such evidence is obtained, or in the case of major 
treatment violation, the patients’ response data will be considered 
censored at the date the patient was withdrawn from treatment. 
The true tumor response rate will be estimated by proportion of efficacy- 
evaluable patients who achieved a confirmed CR or PR by the RECIST 
criteria. A 95% confidence interval for the true response rate will be 
constructed using the Duffy-Santner approach[95]. 
The true 6-month progression-free survival rate will be estimated by the 
proportion of efficacy-evaluable patients on study without documentation 
of disease progression 6 months from registration. A 95% confidence 
interval for the true response rate will be constructed using the Duffy- 
Santner approach[95]. However, Kaplan-Meier methodology will be used 
to estimate the final success proportion (i.e. progression free at 6 months 
with a 95% confidence interval) if there are censored patients. 
13.32 Definitions and Analyses of Secondary Endpoints: 
13.321 Overall survival 
Survival time will be defined as the time from registration to death. 
Time to event distributions will be estimated using the Kaplan- 
Meier method[96]. 
13.322 Duration of response 
Duration of response is defined for all evaluable patients who have 
achieved an objective response as the date at which the patient’s 
objective status is first noted to be either a CR or PR to the date 
progression is documented. Median duration of response and the 
confidence interval for the median duration will be computed. 
13.323 Time to disease progression 
Time to progression is defined as the time from registration to 
disease progression. Patients who died without documentation of 
progression will be considered to have progressed on the date of 
their death. If a patient starts treatment and fails to return for 
evaluation, that patient will be censored for progression of disease 
at day one post-registration. 
13.324 Time to treatment failure 

NCI Protocol # 8233 
Local Protocol # MC0845 
NCI Version Date:  September 6, 2016 
91 
 
Time to treatment failure is defined as the time from study entry to 
the date patients end treatment. These analyses will include those 
patients who go off treatment in the first cycle as well as those 
included in the efficacy analyses. Time to treatment failure will be 
evaluated using the method of Kaplan-Meier. 
13.325 Translational endpoints 
Various correlative assays and markers may be explored in an 
independent study as indicated under laboroatory correlates. Thus 
we cannot propose a method of analysis for any data generated 
from samples collected on this trial at this time. 
13.33 Adverse events 
All eligible patients that have initiated treatment will be considered 
evaluable for adverse event analyses.  The maximum grade for each type 
of adverse event will be recorded for each patient, and frequency tables 
will be reviewed to determine adverse event patterns. As per NCI CTCAE 
Version 3.0, the term toxicity is defined as adverse events that are 
classified as either possibly, probably, or definitely related to study 
treatment. The maximum grade for each type of toxicity will be recorded 
for each patient, and frequency tables will be reviewed to determine 
toxicity patterns. In addition, we will review all adverse event data that is 
graded as 3, 4, or 5 and classified as either “unrelated or unlikely to be 
related” to study treatment in the event of an actual relationship 
developing. Adverse events and toxicities will be evaluated using all 
patients who have received any study treatment as well as summarizing 
those who have been included in the efficacy analyses. 
13.34 Over Accrual 
If more than the target number of patients are accrued, the additional 
patients will not be used to evaluate the stopping rule or used in any 
decision making processes; however, they will be included in final point 
estimates and confidence intervals as though they were accrued in the final 
stage. 
13.35 Monitoring 
The principal investigator(s) and the study statistician will review the 
study periodically (at least twice a year) to identify accrual, adverse 
events, and any endpoint problems that might be developing. This study 
will also be monitored by the Mayo Clinic Cancer Center Data and Safety 
Monitoring Board (DSMB) at least semiannually, or more frequently as 
warranted. 
13.36 Adverse Events Stopping Rule 

NCI Protocol # 8233 
Local Protocol # MC0845 
NCI Version Date:  September 6, 2016 
92 
 
 
Overall, if 5 or more of the first 25 patients (or 20% of all patients after 25 
are accrued) experience grade 4/5 non-hematologic adverse events that are 
probably, possibly, or definitely related to study treatment, accrual to the 
study will be suspended to allow for investigation. For the single-agent 
bevacizumab cohort for islet cell patients, a separate but similar adverse 
events stopping rule will be applied. If 2 or more of the first 10 patients or 
20% of all patients after 10 patients are accrued experience grade 4/5 non- 
hematologic adverse events that are probably, possibly, or definitely 
related to study treatment, accrual to the study will be suspended to allow 
for investigation. After consideration by the study team (study chair[s], 
statistician, etc.) and the primary data safety monitoring board, a decision 
will be made as to whether accrual can be resumed.  In addition, all 
adverse event patterns will be monitored by an independent Mayo Clinic 
Data Safety Monitoring Board on a bi-annual basis. 
13.37 Meta Analysis 
Treating five tumor groups with the combination of temsirolimus and 
bevacizumab under one protocol will provide a standardized platform for 
carrying out a possible exploratory meta analyses. Pooling patients of 
different tumor data in the meta analyses will increase precision of 
estimation and allow borrowing strength across tumor groups. We will 
explore such a meta analysis when all data are mature across all five 
patient tumor groups. 
13.4 
Inclusion of Women and Minorities 
13.41 This study will be available to all eligible patients, regardless of race, 
gender, or ethnic origin. 
13.42 There is no information currently available regarding differential effects of 
this regimen in subsets defined by race, gender, or ethnicity, and there is 
no reason to expect such differences to exist. Therefore, although the 
planned analysis will, as always, look for differences in treatment effect 
based on racial and gender groupings, the sample size is not increased in 
order to provide additional power for subset analyses. 
13.43 The geographical region served by N01 consortia, has a population 
mirrors of general U.S. population. 
This includes approximately 25% minorities. Based on prior NCCTG 
studies involving similar disease sites, we expect about 25% of patients 
will be classified as minorities by race and about 100% of patients will be 
women for Endometrial and Ovary cancer patients, 50% for Carcinoid, 
Islet Cell and Hepatoma. Expected sizes of racial by gender subsets are 
shown in the following table:

Histologic or cytologic confirmation of disease will be the responsibility of each 
center independently without central review. Copies of pathology reports are to 
be sent to the CTSU Data Operations within two weeks of study entry (see 
Section 16.3). 
16. 
DATA SUBMISSION TO DATA OPERATIONS CENTER (CTSU) 
 
Clinical Data Submission via Remote Data Capture 
All participating sites will submit patient data via the CTSU’s Remote Data Capture 
(RDC) system. The CTSU RDC system allows sites to enter patient data into an Oracle 
Clinical ® (OC) database over a secure Internet connection. The RDC system also allows 
for data correction at the point of entry, and is used to communicate and resolve issues 
relating to discrepant data. The Remote Data Capture (RDC) Production Application is 
for those individuals who have completed their RDC training and are ready to enter 
actual patient data into the system. If you have not yet received training in the RDC 
system, please go to the CTSU Members’ side of the website (https://www.ctsu.org) and 
click on the “Clinical Data” tab at the top of your screen, followed by the “Remote Data 
Capture” link on the left-hand side of your screen. Select the "Training" tab to request a 
training account.

Schedule of Data Submission 
Data is to be submitted ≤ 2 weeks following each evaluation of the patient and 
according to the scheduled in Section 16.3 
After the patient discontinues treatment, follow–up will continue as specified in 
the following section(s): 
16.2 
Event Monitoring 
Follow-up data will be collected and entered via the remote data entry system 
according to the schedule in Section 16.3.  If patient is still alive after 3 years 
have elapsed from on-study date, no further follow-up is required by this protocol. 
16.21 If a patient does not receive treatment (and is classified as a cancel), it is 
not necessary to provide follow-up information. On-study material, End 
of active treatment/cancel notification form and Off Study Form are to be 
submitted.  No further follow-up information is necessary. 
16.22 If a patient declared to be ineligible, all on-study and study treatment 
materials are to be submitted. The patient will enter the event monitoring 
phase of this study and will be followed for a maximum of 3 years or until 
death. 
Clinical Report Submission via Fax 
In addition to submitting patient data electronically via the RDC system, sites may be 
required to submit faxed clinical reports to CTSU. Clinical reports (e.g. operative and 
pathology reports) must be faxed to the CTSU Data Operations Center accompanied by a 
properly completed study-specific CTSU Data Transmittal Form. (Data submitted 
improperly or without a completed CTSU Data Transmittal Form will not be processed. 
Site will receive e-mail notification for any unsuccessful data receipt, including a data 
resubmission memo which will provide details and instructions for re-submission). 
Include the Patient ID and protocol number on all pages of the report and redact the 
patient’s name. CTSU fax number is: 1-301-545-0406.

APPENDIX B: CTEP MULTICENTER GUIDELINES 
If an institution wishes to collaborate with other participating institutions in performing a 
CTEP sponsored research protocol, then the following guidelines must be followed. 
Responsibility of the Protocol Chair 
• 
The Protocol Chair will be the single liaison with the CTEP Protocol and Information 
Office (PIO). The Protocol Chair is responsible for the coordination, development, 
submission, and approval of the protocol as well as its subsequent amendments. The 
protocol must not be rewritten or modified by anyone other than the Protocol Chair. 
There will be only one version of the protocol, and each participating institution will use 
that document. The Protocol Chair is responsible for assuring that all participating 
institutions are using the correct version of the protocol. 
• 
The Protocol Chair is responsible for the overall conduct of the study at all participating 
institutions and for monitoring its progress. All reporting requirements to CTEP are the 
responsibility of the Protocol Chair. 
• 
The Protocol Chair is responsible for the timely review of Adverse Events (AE) to assure 
safety of the patients. 
• 
The Protocol Chair will be responsible for the review of and timely submission of data 
for study analysis. 
Responsibilities of the Coordinating Center 
• 
Each participating institution will have an appropriate assurance on file with the Office 
for Human Research Protection (OHRP), NIH. The Coordinating Center is responsible 
for assuring that each participating institution has an OHRP assurance and must maintain 
copies of IRB approvals from each participating site. 
• 
Prior to the activation of the protocol at each participating institution, an OHRP form 
310 (documentation of IRB approval) must be submitted to the CTEP PIO. 
• 
The Coordinating Center is responsible for central patient registration. The Coordinating 
Center is responsible for assuring that IRB approval has been obtained at each 
participating site prior to the first patient registration from that site. 
• 
The Coordinating Center is responsible for the preparation of all submitted data for 
review by the Protocol Chair. 
• 
The Coordinating Center will maintain documentation of AE reports. There are two 
options for AE reporting: (1) participating institutions may report directly to CTEP with a 
copy to the Coordinating Center, or (2) participating institutions report to the 
Coordinating Center who in turn report to CTEP. The Coordinating Center will submit 
AE reports to the Protocol Chair for timely review.

• 
Audits may be accomplished in one of two ways: (1) source documents and research 
records for selected patients are brought from participating sites to the Coordinating 
Center for audit, or (2) selected patient records may be audited on-site at participating 
sites. If the NCI chooses to have an audit at the Coordinating Center, then the 
Coordinating Center is responsible for having all source documents, research records, all 
IRB approval documents, NCI Drug Accountability Record forms, patient registration 
lists, response assessments scans, x-rays, etc. available for the audit. 
Inclusion of Multicenter Guidelines in the Protocol 
• 
The protocol must include the following minimum information: 
➢ The title page must include the name and address of each participating institution and 
the name, telephone number and e-mail address of the responsible investigator at each 
participating institution. 
➢ The Coordinating Center must be designated on the title page. 
➢ Central registration of patients is required. The procedures for registration must be 
stated in the protocol. 
➢ Data collection forms should be of a common format. Sample forms should be 
submitted with the protocol. The frequency and timing of data submission forms to 
the Coordinating Center should be stated. 
➢ Describe how AEs will be reported from the participating institutions, either directly 
to CTEP or through the Coordinating Center. 
➢ Describe how Safety Reports and Action Letters from CTEP will be distributed to 
participating institutions. 
Agent Ordering 
• 
Except in very unusual circumstances, each participating institution will order DCTD- 
supplied agents directly from CTEP. Agents may be ordered by a participating site only 
after the initial IRB approval for the site has been forwarded by the Coordinating Center 
to the CTEP PIO.
