Despite treatment with the current standard-of-care therapies, patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) exhibit dismal prognoses. Bevacizumab has demonstrated activity in patients with recurrent GBM and phase 2 trials indicate that the combination of bevacizumab with standard-of-care therapy is feasible and active for patients with newly diagnosed GBM. Bevacizumab has been granted US approval for use as single-agent therapy for patients with progressive GBM following prior therapy, although it has not received approval for use in patients with GBM in Europe. Phase 3 studies have been initiated in patients with newly diagnosed GBM and are currently recruiting patients. We describe the protocol for the AVAglio phase 3 registration trial, which is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combining bevacizumab with standard-of-care therapy in patients with newly diagnosed GBM.
