Malignant Neoplasm Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Randomized Phase II Trial of Bevacizumab to Control Brain Radiation Damage
Bevacizumab may reduce CNS side effects caused by radiation therapy. This randomized phase II trial is studying how well bevacizumab works in reducing CNS side effects in patients who have undergone radiation therapy to the brain for primary brain tumor, meningioma, or head and neck cancer.

| Primary | Number of Participants With Response ( > 25% Reduction in T2 Flair) From Baseline to Evaluation at 6 Weeks Post Treatment | Change in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) from baseline to evaluation at 6 weeks for participants where MRI changes are based on the size of edema (T2 FLAIR) and Gd-contrast enhancement (lesion diameter and perfusion/dynamic). A 25% reduction in T2 flair volume constitutes a response for study. | Baseline to 12 weeks | No |
