  • Life expectancy of greater than 3 months in the opinion of an investigator or treating physician.
  • Karnofsky performance status ≥ 60
  • Participants must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and be willing to provide written informed consent and participate in this study in accordance with institutional and federal guidelines prior to study-specific procedures.

Who cannot join

  • Inability to tolerate imaging procedures in the opinion of an investigator or treating physician
  • Females who are pregnant or breast feeding at the time of screening will not be eligible for this study; a urine pregnancy test will be performed in women of child-bearing potential at screening.
  • Any current medical condition, illness, or disorder as assessed by medical record review and/or self-reported that is considered by a physician investigator to be a condition that could compromise participant safety or successful participation in the study
  • Less than 3 months from finishing the most recent radiation or immunotherapy.
  • Contraindications to MRI or use of gadolinium contrast
  • Only individuals (aged 18 or over) who can understand and give informed consent will be approached to participate in this study. Individuals who are considered to be mentally disabled will not be recruited for this study. All subjects must understand and be able to give informed consent. We will not be using specific methods to assess decisional capacity. Economically disadvantaged persons will not be vulnerable to undue influence, as this study offers no compensation. All individuals will be told that their choice regarding study participation will in no way change their access to clinical care. This should negate any undue influence or coercion. Pregnant women, children, fetuses, neonates, or prisoners are not included in this research study.

About this study

Subjects with recurrent glioblastoma who are candidates for bevacizumab treatment according to standard of care will be eligible for this study. Positron emission tomography (PET/CT) imaging will use the investigational radiotracer [18F]FMISO to image the brain and evaluate for hypoxia pre and post therapy.. Subjects will also undergo up to three Brain MRIs.

Being tested
[18F]fluoromisonidazole, Bevacizumab, positron emission tomography (PET/CT).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • [18F]fluoromisonidazoleBiological

    Also called 18F-FMISO

    positron emitting radiopharmaceutical that has been studied in vivo in humans for measurement of regional hypoxia in a number of tumor types with positron emission tomography (PET/CT)

  • BevacizumabDrug

    Bevacizumab (Avastin, Genentech/Roche) is a humanized monoclonal antibody that binds to VEGF preventing its interaction with VEGFRs resulting in suppression of VEGF signaling.

  • positron emission tomography (PET/CT).Radiation

    PET-CT Scan 1.) before start of Bevacizumab up to approximately 4 weeks and 2.) within 12-22 days of start of Bevacizumab

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing [18F]fluoromisonidazole, Bevacizumab and positron emission tomography (PET/CT). in people with Recurrent Glioblastoma, run by Abramson Cancer Center at Penn Medicine at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Feb 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Lack of enrollment). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Adverse Events (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Feb 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
