Spectroscopic MRI, Proton Therapy, and Avastin for Recurrent Glioblastoma
Pilot Trial of Spectroscopic MRI-guided, Dose-Escalated Proton Radiation Therapy and Bevacizumab for Recurrent Glioblastoma
University of Miami
96 participants
Sep 30, 2022
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The purpose of this research is to find hidden cancer with an experimental magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan called spectroscopic magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI). That spectroscopic MRI scan will be used to increase the area of the brain receiving radiation and then the dose of radiation in attempt to kill more of the cancer. Proton radiotherapy and bevacizumab (Avastin) are used to minimize the possible side effects of this approach.

Interventions
Participants will receive radiation therapy delivered via intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) simultaneous integrated boost technique over a period of 10 days, 5 days per week for approximately 2 weeks.
Bevacizumab will be administered intravenously (IV), beginning at a dose of 10 mg/kg every 2-3 weeks until disease progression.
