Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

The primary endpoint is Overall Survival (OS)
The primary study goal is to assess Overall Survival (OS) of subjects treated with the Xoft Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy (eBx)® System when used for single-fraction, intra-operative radiation therapy (IORT) following maximal safe neurosurgical resection of recurrent glioblastoma for patients.
Patients treated with Xoft IORT device median overall survival (OS)
The median and mean OS with Xoft will be calculated

Secondary Outcome Measures

Local Progression-free Survival (PFS)
Local PFS will be assessed at following intra-operative treatment with the Xoft Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System following maximal safe neurosurgical resection.
Quality of Life Assessment (Fact-Br)
To assess Quality of Life Status at baseline and following intra-operative treatment with the Xoft Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System following maximal safe neurosurgical resection. The FACT-Br questionnaire assesses subjects on a scale of 0 (minimum) to 4 (maximum), 0 equal to "Not at all" and 4 equal to "Very Much"
Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS)
To assess Karnofsky Performance Status at baseline and following intra-operative treatment with the Xoft Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System following maximal safe neurosurgical resection. The KPS grades from 100 to 0. 0, the lower score the worst the survival for the most serious illness. 100, the higher score, survival close to normal limits, no complaints.
Radiation-related Neurotoxicity
Assess the rate of radiation-related neurotoxicity in subjects treated with the Xoft Axxent electronic Brachytherapy System when used for single-fraction, intra-operative radiation therapy treatment following maximal safe neurosurgical resection.
The rate and severity of Adverse Events (AEs), Adverse Device Effects (ADEs), and Unanticipated Adverse Device Effects (UADEs)
The rate and severity of Adverse Events (AEs), Adverse Device Effects (ADEs), and Unanticipated Adverse Device Effects (UADEs) will be assessed at the time of treatment and at all follow-up visits. All Grade 3 or higher adverse events will be followed until resolution. Each event will be classified according to: Device Related Procedure Related Radiation Related

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the Xoft Axxent eBx System when used for single-fraction IORT for recurrent Glioblastoma. IORT using the Xoft Axxent eBx System is no worse than (non-inferior) GliaSite radiation therapy when used as stand-alone radiation treatment immediately following maximal safe neurosurgical resection in patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme (GBM).
Detailed Description
Device Description: The Xoft Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System is a device that delivers radiation at a high dose rate. It is designed for use with Axxent applicators to treat lesions, tumors, and conditions in or on the body where radiation is indicated. The Axxent System and Applicators are FDA cleared under 510(k)s K050843, K072683, K090914 and K122951. The purpose of this trial is to assess the overall survival of patients treated with the Xoft Axxent eBx System for single-fraction IORT following maximal neurosurgical resection of recurrent glioblastoma. A historical comparison will be made for surgical excision and GliaSite radiation therapy (Chan 2005), which resulted in a median OS of 9.1 months. Radiation is delivered to the target tissue (adjacent to the resection margins). It avoids treatment delays and eliminates weeks of post-surgical radiation therapy during which residual cancer cells might proliferate.
