Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether Hypofractionated Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (Hypo-IMRT) combining with temozolomide chemotherapy can be safely given with a targeted agent, bevacizumab, and how effective this study treatment will be in controlling your brain tumor.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a pilot phase II trial of the combination of concurrent hypofractionated IMRT (60 Gy/2 weeks), temozolomide and bevacizumab followed by 6 cycles of adjuvant bevacizumab and temozolomide in patients with grade IV malignant gliomas (glioblastoma and gliosarcoma). The study will have survival and toxicity endpoints.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

RT with Temozolomide and Bevacizumab

Patients will be treated with hypofractionated IMRT (60 Gy in 10 Fx) and daily TMZ at 75 mg/m2 qd concurrent with IMRT (including weekends and holidays). Bevacizumab will be administered at 10 mg/kg on day 1 and day 15. Day 1 and the 1st Fx of IMRT must start on the same day. Four to six weeks following completion of concurrent IMRT, TMZ and bevacizumab therapy, patients will have a brain MRI and if there is no evidence of disease progression, patients will receive 6 cycles of Bevacizumab and TMZ. Beginning a minimum of 28 days after the last radiation treatment the bevacizumab will be dosed at 10 mg/kg on day 1 and day 15 of each cycle. TMZ will be given at 150-200 mg/m2 qd on days 1-5 of each cycle. Each cycle is 28 days.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Bevacizumab

Intervention Type DRUG

Bevacizumab will be administered at 10 mg/kg on day 1 and day 15. Four to six weeks following completion of concurrent IMRT, TMZ and bevacizumab, patients will receive 6 cycles of Bevacizumab.

Temozolomide

Intervention Type DRUG

Patients will be treated with hypofractionated IMRT (60 Gy in 10 Fx) and daily temozolomide at 75 mg/m2 qd concurrent with IMRT. Four to six weeks following completion of concurrent IMRT, TMZ and bevacizumab, temozolomide will be given at 150-200 mg/m2 qd on days 1-5 of each cycle.

Exclusion Criteria

* Life expectancy of less than 12 weeks
