Summary

This study looked at whether special brain scans (PET and CT perfusion) can predict if the drug bevacizumab will work in people whose glioblastoma brain cancer has come back. Fourteen patients were scanned before treatment to see if the scans could tell who would respond. The goal was to find a way to avoid giving an ineffective drug to patients.
