- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: To assess the efficacy of addition of continuous multiple line<br>bevacizumab treatment to lomustine in 2nd-line followed by standard of<br>care (SOC) in 3rd-line and beyond compared to addition of bevacizumab/placebo,<br>as measured by overall survival (OS) from randomisation at<br>first progression of disease (PD1).;Secondary Objective: To assess:<br>? overall survival as measured from randomization at PD1.<br>? progression free survival from randomization at PD1, to 2nd PD (PD2) (PFS2), and to 3rd PD (PD3) (PFS3).<br>? response rates (RRs), disease control rates (DCRs), and durations of response at PD2 and PD3.<br>? the safety of bevacizumab treatment across multiple lines of treatment and from randomization at PD1.<br>? HRQoL, neurocognitive function (NCF) and resource utilization;Primary end point(s): Overall survival (OS);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: When 130 events have been observed
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary end point(s): - 2nd and 3rd line progression free survival (PFS)<br>- Response, duration of response and disease control rates in 2nd and 3rd line<br>- Safety<br>- Neurocognitive function, Health Related QoL, resource utilization;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: at the time of the primary endpoint (when 130 events have been observed)
