A Phase II Study of Bevacizumab and Erlotinib After Radiation Therapy and Temozolomide in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma Without MGMT Promoter Methylation
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating bevacizumab and erlotinib hydrochloride for Brain and Central Nervous System Tumors. Completed, enrolled 115 participants across 9 sites.
Detailed Summary
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving bevacizumab together with erlotinib may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving bevacizumab together with erlotinib works after radiation therapy and temozolomide in treating patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme or gliosarcoma.
