200 mg/m² IV over 3 hours, day 1 of each cycle. Paclitaxel + Carboplatin + Bevacizumab will be administered once every 21 days (Day 1) for up to 6 cycles. If subject has complete response, partial response, stable disease, or unacceptable toxicity. Bevacizumab with Metformin (Arm A) or Bevacizumab alone (Arm B) may continue as maintenance therapy.

DRUG

Carboplatin

Carboplatin is administered at AUC= 6 mg/ml X min IV over 15-30 minutes, immediately following Paclitaxel infusion every 21 days Paclitaxel + Carboplatin + Bevacizumab will be administered once every 21 days (Day 1) for up to 6 cycles. If subject has complete response, partial response, stable disease, or unacceptable toxicity. Bevacizumab with Metformin (Arm A) or Bevacizumab alone (Arm B) may continue as maintenance therapy

DRUG

Bevacizumab

All patients will receive the drug at 15 mg/kg every 21 days, given immediately after completion of chemotherapy, starting with Cycle 1. After induction chemotherapy is completed (4 cycles), bevacizumab will continue at 15 mg/kg every 21 days until PD (provided neither PD nor toxicity requiring discontinuation has occurred) measured from date of first dose of bevacizumab.
