About this study
Official title: An Open Label, Prospective, Pilot Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Best Physician's Choice of Standard of Care Combined With NaviFUS System in Patients With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme
This is a prospective, single-arm, two stages, open-label, pilot study to investigate the efficacy and safety of FUS add-on bevacizumab (BEV) in rGBM patients. The BEV is the best physician's choice of standard of care for rGBM after prior radiotherapy and temozolomide chemotherapy in the LinKou Chang Gung Memorial Hospital. Eligible patients will be enrolled through the process of informed consent.
Read the detailed description
This trial will be divided into two stages. The study design and procedures will be as follows:
Stage 1:
Eligible patients will first be administered with BEV 10 mg/kg intravenous (IV) infusion. After 30-60 minutes, patients will receive microbubbles (MB) (SonoVue®) 0.1 mL/kg and optimal ultrasound exposure doses (based on the acoustic emission feedback FUS power control algorithm) generated from the NaviFUS System single exposure unit for up to two minutes every 2 weeks to transiently open the BBB.
After 4 weeks of treatment with BEV and single unit FUS-MB treatment, if the patient experienced BBB opening using FUS treatment and BEV IV infusion without any serious adverse effects (such as brain significant bleeding), then the patient may proceed to stage 2.
Stage 2:
Patients who complete stage 1 will enter stage 2 to receive the BEV with MB-mediated multiple units of FUS treatment for up to five minutes (but the maximum exposure time per single unit is two minutes) every 2 weeks for up to 30 weeks or until evidence of progressive disease, unacceptable toxicity, non-compliance with study follow-up, or withdrawal of consent.
After completion of study treatment, patients will be followed up for 28 days.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Adverse Event
Number and severity of adverse event
Measured: 38 weeks
Progression-free survival at 6 months (PFS-6)
Estimated rate of patients treated during 6 months without experiencing disease
Measured: 6 months
Secondary outcomes (8)
Tumor shrinkage
The tumor shrinkage rate (TSR) by measuring the longest diameter and perpendicular diameter of the main mass on MRI scans
Measured: 38 weeks
Objective response rate (ORR)
Proportion of subjects in the analysis population who have complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) using Radiologic Assessment in Neuro-Oncology criteria (RANO) criteria
Measured: 38 weeks
PET uptake
The uptake of PET (as standard uptake value - SUV and tumor-to-background ratio - TBR) in tumor and in normal contralateral gray matter before start of BEV+FUS treatment will be determined.
Measured: 38 weeks
Overall survival (OS)
OS is defined as the time in months from study treatment to death or last follow-up if alive from any cause
Measured: 38 weeks
Degree of the BBB opening
The FUS with microbubbles can temporally open the BBB. The spatial permeability of the BBB-opened region will be assessed using dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI).
Measured: 38 weeks
Corticosteroid consumption
Increase or decrease in corticosteroid use compared to baseline. The mean corticosteroid dosage prior to study treatment will be considered as the patient's baseline.
Measured: 38 weeks
Quality of life (QoL) assessment with the EORTC QLQ-C30
The validated European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) quality of life questionnaire (QLQ-C30) will be used. The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a 30-item questionnaire. All of the response scale to questions are rated on a 4-point Likert scale from 1 = not at all, 2 = a little, 3 = quite a bit, to 4 = very much, and are linearly transformed to a 0-100 scale, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms.
Measured: 38 weeks
Quality of life (QoL) assessment with the EORTC QLQ-BN20
The EORTC QLQ-BN20 is a QoL assessment specific to brain neoplasms. The questionnaire includes 20 items. All of the response scale to questions are rated on a 4-point Likert scale from 1 = not at all, 2 = a little, 3 = quite a bit, to 4 = very much, and are linearly transformed to a 0-100 scale, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms.
Measured: 38 weeks

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
This is a prospective, single-arm, two stages, open-label, pilot study to investigate the efficacy and safety of FUS add-on bevacizumab (BEV) in rGBM patients. The BEV is the best physician's choice of standard of care for rGBM after prior radiotherapy and temozolomide chemotherapy in the LinKou Chang Gung Memorial Hospital. Eligible patients will be enrolled through the process of informed consent.
Detailed description
This trial will be divided into two stages. The study design and procedures will be as follows:

After 30-60 minutes, patients will receive microbubbles (MB) (SonoVue®) 0.1 mL/kg and optimal ultrasound exposure doses (based on the acoustic emission feedback FUS power control algorithm) generated from the NaviFUS System single exposure unit for up to two minutes every 2 weeks to transiently open the BBB.
After 4 weeks of treatment with BEV and single unit FUS-MB treatment, if the patient experienced BBB opening using FUS treatment and BEV IV infusion without any serious adverse effects (such as brain significant bleeding), then the patient may proceed to stage 2.
Stage 2:
Patients who complete stage 1 will enter stage 2 to receive the BEV with MB-mediated multiple units of FUS treatment for up to five minutes (but the maximum exposure time per single unit is two minutes) every 2 weeks for up to 30 weeks or until evidence of progressive disease, unacceptable toxicity, non-compliance with study follow-up, or withdrawal of consent.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing NaviFUS System and Bevacizumab in people with Glioblastoma Multiforme and Glioblastoma, run by NaviFUS Corporation at 1 site in Taiwan.
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 27 inclusion and 17 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Apr 2026. 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 Taiwan. 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.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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?
Adverse Event (time frame: 38 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04446416, which also lists 6 linked publications.
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 9 Apr 2026.
