A Phase II Study of Pulse Reduced Dose Rate Radiation Therapy With Bevacizumab

Study Purpose

To determine the efficacy of Pulse Reduced Dose Rate (PRDR) radiation when given in 27 fraction over 5.5 weeks with concurrent bevacizumab followed by adjuvant bevacizumab until time of progression in patients with recurrent high grade gliomas (grade III and grade IV). Patients will be placed in 1 of 4 groups based on their histologic diagnosis and prior exposure to bevacizumab.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT01743950
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Active Comparator: Bevacizumab-exposed with recurrent IDH mutant glioma

27fractions over 5.5weeks of PRDR radiation with bevacizumab followed by adjuvant bevacizumab until time of progression

Interventions

Drug: - Bevacizumab

10mg/kg every 2weeks.

Radiation: - PRDR

Daily dose of 2.0gy delivered in .2gy pulses for a total of 54gy over 5.5 weeks and 27 fractions. In the rare instance of the presence of extensive disease requiring essentially whole brain radiation, a total daily dose of 1.8 Gy delivered in .2 Gy pulses for 23 fractions to a total dose of 41.4 Gy will be utilized.
