Low-dose Bevacizumab With HSRT vs BVZ Alone for GBM at First Recurrence
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This randomized phase II trial studies how well lose dose bevacizumab with Hypofractionated Stereotactic Radiotherapy (HSRT) works versus bevacizumab alone in treating patients with glioblastoma at first recurrence. The primary endpoint is 6-month progress-free survivaloverall survival after the treatment. Secondary endpoints included overall survival, objective response rate, cognitive function, quality of life and toxicity.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Progression-free Survival rate at 6 Months [From randomization to six months]
Prgression was defined using Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) Criteria. Progression-free at 6 months means patient alive without progression at 6 months. Survival rates are estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Overall Survival [From randomization to last follow-up, up to approximately 24 months]
Survival time is defined as time from randomization to the date of death from any cause or last known follow-up (censored). Survival rates are estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.
- Progression-free Survival [From randomization to last follow-up, up to approximately 24 months]
Prgression was defined using Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) Criteria. Progression-free survival time is defined as time from randomization to the date of first progression, death, or last known follow-up (censored). Progression-free survival rates are estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
- Objective response rate [Bimonthly up to intolerance the toxicity or progressive disease (PD), up to approximately 24 months]
ORR is defined as the percentage of subjects with evidence of a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as per Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) prior to progression or any further therapy.
- Number of Participants With Grade 3+ Toxicity rate [Bimonthly up to intolerance the toxicity or PD, up to approximately 24 months]
Adverse events were graded using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0. Grade refers to the severity of the AE. Estimated using an exact binomial distribution together with 95% confidence interval. The difference between the two groups will be tested using a chi square test.
- Quality of Life score (QoL) [Bimonthly up to intolerance the toxicity or PD, up to approximately 24 months]
EORTC QLQ-C30 (version 3.0) questionnaire to evaluate the quality of life. All scales range in score from 0 to 100. A high score for a functional scale represents a high / healthy level of functioning, a high score for the global health status / QoL represents a high QoL, but a high score for a symptom scale / item represents a high level of symptomatology / problems.
- Cognitive function [Bimonthly up to intolerance the toxicity or PD, up to approximately 24 months]
Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE, score range 0 to 30) to evaluate the cognitive function. Any score of 24 or more (out of 30) indicates a normal cognition. Below this, scores can indicate severe (≤9 points), moderate (10-18 points) or mild (19-23 points) cognitive impairment.
