Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
All patients will complete best standard of care radiation, temozolomide and bevacizumab (6 weeks). Within two weeks of completion of this initial treatment period, study patients will be fitted with the NovoTTF-100A System and treated continuously. They will be treated with TTFields for 12 months for an average of 18 hours per day. The patient may elect to take a treatment break for a total of 3 days per month, for each month and still be in compliance. This will consist of wearing four electrically insulated electrode arrays on the head. The patients will also continue with maintenance temozolomide/ bevacizumab.

- Planned RT + TMZ + BEV + NovoTTF100A Device
- description
- Best standard of care radiation therapy (RT, 2 Gy given daily 5 days per week), temozolomide (TMZ, 75 mg/m2 administered daily), and bevacizumab (BEV, 10 mg/kg administered every 2 weeks as an IV infusion) for 6 weeks. After completion of chemoradiation, NovoTTF100A system was initiated, to be worn on average 18 hours or more a day for up to 12 months. The patients also continued with maintenance TMZ/BEV.

Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Number of Participants With 12-Month Survival
- timeFrame
- Evaluated over 12 months
- description
- Twelve-month survival was determined for each subject as a binary variable indicating whether or not the subject was alive at 12 months from initiation of chemoradiation. Determination of this endpoint occurs after the subject has at least 12 months of follow-up, unless they have died sooner.
