Summary
Primary brain cancer kills up to 10,000 Americans a year. These brain tumors are typically treated by surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy, either individually or in combination. Present therapies are inadequate, as evidenced by the low 5-year survival rate for brain cancer patients, with median survival at approximately 12 months. Glioma is the most common form of primary brain cancer, afflicting approximately 7,000 patients in the United States each year. These highly malignant cancers remain a significant unmet clinical need in oncology. The investigators have completed a Phase I clinical trial that has shown that Superselective Intraarterial Cerebral Infusion (SIACI) of Bevacizumab (BV) is safe up to a dose of 15mg/kg in patients with recurrent malignant glioma. Additionally, the investigators have shown in a recently completed Phase I/II clinical trial, that SIACI BV improves the median progression free survival (PFS) from 4-6 months to 11.5 months and overall survival (OS) from 12-15 months to 23 months in patients with newly diagnosed GBM. Therefore, this two-arm, randomized trial (2:1) is a follow up study to these trials and will ask simple questions: Will this repeated SIACI treatment regimen increase progression free survival (PFS-primary endpoint) and overall survival (OS-secondary endpoint) when compared with standard of care in patients with newly diagnosed GBM? Exploratory endpoints will include adverse events and safety analysis as well as quality of life (QOL) assessments. The investigators expect that this project will provide important information regarding the utility of repeated SIACI BV therapy for newly diagnosed GBM and may alter the way these drugs are delivered to our patients in the near future.

7. Females of reproductive potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test and be
willing to use an acceptable method of birth control.

8. Males of reproductive potential must be willing to use an acceptable method of birth
control to ensure effective contraception with partner.

at least 5 years. Adequately treated basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell skin cancer
is acceptable regardless of time, as well as localized prostate carcinoma or cervical
carcinoma in situ after curative treatment

7. Subject has a known positive test for human immunodeficiency virus infection, or
active hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection.
