Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for adults with recurrent glioblastoma to test a new treatment device that delivers targeted radiation directly to the tumor. Participants must meet certain health criteria and have had prior treatments.
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
I am between 18 and 85 years old.
I have been diagnosed with recurrent glioblastoma.
I have a single tumor that is 3 cm or smaller.
I cannot have surgery for my tumor.
I have had radiation treatment before, and my tumor has grown.
I have measurable disease according to specific medical criteria.
I expect to live more than 6 months.
I have had recent surgery or a scan showing my tumor has progressed.
You may not be able to join if
I have had more than 3 relapses of my cancer.
I have a condition that causes bleeding problems.
I have certain types of brain disease.
I am currently receiving chemotherapy or other systemic therapies.
I have had recent treatment with specific cancer drugs.
I have an immune disorder like AIDS.
I am pregnant or breastfeeding.
I have certain autoimmune diseases.

Inclusion Criteria:
* Males and females ≥ 18 and ≤ 85 years of age
* Patients must have histologically confirmed diagnosis of WHO grade IV glioblastoma (including variants such as gliosarcoma, giant cell glioblastoma).
* Single, gadolinium-enhancing tumor recurrence ≤ 3cm in maximum diameter
* Patient not amenable for surgical resection due to any of the following but not limited reasons: patient refusal, medically ineligible, surgically too high risk due to tumor location in a deep and/or eloquent location.
* Prior history of central nervous system (CNS) radiation (standard dose) with 50.4-60 Gy delivered in 1.8 Gy-2.0 Gy fractions with concurrent temozolomide (if the patient has received a non-standard fractionation or radiation dose, such as 40 Gy in 15 fractions.
* Patients must have a time interval ≥4 months between completion of prior radiation and trial registration and have tumor progression per RANO criteria
* Patients must have a measurable disease per RANO criteria
* Estimated life expectancy is more than 6 months
* Target lesion amenable for coverage by the DaRT sources
* Patient must either have had recent subtotal surgery/biopsy following tumor recurrence (at least 6 weeks from trial registration) or must have shown unequivocal radiographic evidence for tumor progression by contrast-enhanced MRI scan within 21 days prior to trial registration. If surgery was performed, must have a post-operative MRI scan within 21 days prior to trial registration.
* Patients have recovered from prior therapy side effects and must be at least 4 weeks post administration of chemotherapies or investigational agents with the exception of nitrosureas (such as Carmustine, Fotemustine, Lomustine) which requires 42 days of washout.
* Karnofsky performance score (KPS) of at least 60 documented within 14 days prior to trial registration
* Patients must have adequate biological parameters as demonstrated by the following blood counts at initial screening obtained ≤ 14 days prior to starting treatment Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 × 109/L Platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm3 (80 × 109/L) Hemoglobin (Hgb) ≥ 9 g/dL.
* Patients must have the following blood chemistry levels at initial screening obtained ≤ 14 days prior to starting treatment AST (SGOT), ALT (SGPT) ≤ 2.5 × upper limit of normal range (ULN) Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN
* Effective contraception must be used by both male and female patients while on the study and for up to 3 months following treatment
* Patient must have been informed about the nature of the study, and must have agreed to participate in the study, and signed the Informed Consent Form (ICF) prior to participation in any study-related activities
Exclusion Criteria:
* Medical contraindication to MRI (cardiac devices are allowed if MRI compatible)
* More than 3 relapses per RANO criteria
* Acquired and or genetic clinical bleeding tendency
* Suspicious of infratentorial or leptomeningeal or intraventricular disease
* Concomitant chemotherapy or any other systemic therapy not allowed in the protocol
* Recent or current (within 6 weeks) therapy with VEF or a VEGFR inhibitor
* Immunocompromised state due to either transplant or AIDS
* Prior allergic reaction to the study drugs
* History of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy
* Uncontrolled hypertension (defined as either \>150 mm/Hg for systolic and \>90mm/Hg for diastolic)
* History of a non-healing wound, ulcer, gastrointestinal bleed (\> grade 3), traumatic injury, or bone fracture within 90 days prior to registration Volunteers participating in another interventional study in the past 30 days which might conflict with the endpoints of this study or the evaluation of response or toxicity of DaRT
* High probability of protocol non-compliance (in opinion of investigator)
* Pregnancy or lactation
* Collagenous diseases, specifically systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma, or dermatomyositis
