Overview
Brief Summary
This phase II trial studies how well dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DSC-MRI) works in measuring relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) for early response to bevacizumab in patients with glioblastoma that has come back. DSC-MRI may help evaluate changes in the blood vessels within the cancer to determine a patient?s response to treatment.
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine whether binary changes (increase versus \[vs.\] decrease) in rCBV within enhancing tumor from baseline to 2 weeks after initiation of anti-angiogenic therapy is associated with overall survival (OS). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine whether the baseline pre-treatment rCBV measure alone is associated with OS. II. To determine whether binary changes (increase vs. decrease) in rCBV within enhancing tumor from baseline to 2 weeks after initiation of anti-angiogenic therapy is associated with progression-free survival (PFS). III. To determine whether changes in rCBV as a continuous variable within enhancing tumor from baseline to 2 weeks after initiation of anti-angiogenic therapy is associated with OS or PFS. IV. To determine the association between rCBV and OS when adjusting for the changes in enhancing tumor volume. V. To determine whether baseline cerebral blood flow (CBF) or change in CBF is associated with OS or PFS. OUTLINE: Patients undergo DSC-MRI within 3 days before bevacizumab initiation and at day 15. After completion of study intervention, patients are followed up every 3 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for up to 4 years.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Histologically proven intracranial glioblastoma or gliosarcoma at initial surgery
- •Patients will be eligible if the original histology was low-grade glioma and a subsequent diagnosis of glioblastoma or gliosarcoma is made (high-grade transformation)
- •Karnofsky performance status \>= 70
- •Women must not be pregnant or breast-feeding
- •Progression of disease assessed by local site using Revised Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria, with plan to give whole-dose bevacizumab therapeutically, either as single therapy or in conjunction with other chemotherapeutic regimens; patients getting bevacizumab to support additional radiation therapy or immunotherapy, or primarily for reduction of edema rather than for tumor treatment, are excluded; this must be the patient?s initial recurrence
- •Patient must not have been treated previously with immunotherapies (vaccines, checkpoint inhibitors, T-cells)
- •Intratumoral hemorrhage (acute, subacute, or chronic) as seen on hemosiderin-sensitive (gradient-echo) MRI may preclude patient inclusion because of anticipated limited evaluation due to magnetic susceptibility artifact on the heavily T2-weighted DSC-MRI images; if the region of enhancing tumor not affected by blooming artifact on the hemosiderin-sensitive images does not meet the 10 x 10 x 10 mm ?measurable enhancement? threshold specified elsewhere, the patient is ineligible
- •Progressive enhancement (\> 25% increase in contrast enhancing volume compared to nadir) on MRI within 14 days of registration, \>= 42 days since completion of radiation/temozolomide therapy, and \>= 28 days since surgical resection or cytotoxic chemotherapy; measurable enhancement is defined as two perpendicular in-plane diameters of at least 10 mm and at least 10 mm in the 3rd orthogonal direction
- •Patients must be able to tolerate brain MRI scans with dynamic intravenous gadolinium-based contrast agent injections
- •Ability to withstand 22 gauge intravenous (IV) placement

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Change in rCBV within enhancing tumor
Time Frame: Baseline to 2 weeks
Will determine whether binary changes (increase vs. decrease) in rCBV is associated with OS. Kaplan-Meier survival curves will be generated for both the increased and the decreased rCBV groups. The median survival time of both groups will be estimated and compared with a two-sided log rank test. Univariate Cox proportional hazards model will be used to test the association between changes in rCBV from baseline to 2 weeks and OS or PFS.
OS
Time Frame: Up to 5 years
Will determine if binary changes (increase vs. decrease) in rCBV is associated with OS. The median survival time of both groups will be estimated and compared with a two-sided log rank test. Will determine whether changes in rCBV as a continuous variable within enhancing tumor from baseline to 2 weeks after initiation of anti-angiogenic therapy is associated with OS. Univariate Cox proportional hazards model will be used to test the association between changes in rCBV from baseline to 2 weeks and OS. The hazard ratio and its 95% confidence interval (CI) will be presented. Will determine the as
