Patient and Methods:
SECONDARY
Patients with recurrent GBM were treated with avelumab, a human IgG1 antibody directed against PD-L1 (part A), or avelumab within a week after laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) and continuation of avelumab (part B). Bevacizumab was allowed to be combined with ICI to spare steroid use. The primary objective was to characterize the tolerability and safety of the regimens. The secondary objectives included overall survival, progression-free survival (PFS), signatures of plasma analytes, and immune cells.
