Low-dose Bevacizumab With HSRT vs BVZ Alone for GBM at First Recurrence

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.
