A Phase II Study of Optune (NovoTTF) in Combination With Bevacizumab (BEV) and Temozolomide (TMZ) in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Unresectable Glioblastoma (GBM)

This study will be carried out in two stages. The first stage will enroll a cohort of 22
patients. The FDA will review safety data of the first 15 patients during enrollment of the
first cohort. Enrollment and interim analysis of the first cohort of patients will be
completed within 15 months of study commencement. Upon FDA approval and favorable interim
analysis followed by subsequent protocol/consent amendment (as applicable), the second stage
will enroll a cohort of 24 patients and will be completed within 15 months of stage 2
commencement. The overall duration of the study is expected to be no longer than 30 months.

- History of myocardial infarction or unstable angina within 6 months prior to study
enrollment

greater than or equal to 2 or more (patients discovered to have greater than or equal
to 2 or greater proteinuria on dipstick urinalysis at baseline should undergo a
24-hour urine collection and must demonstrate less than or equal to 1g of protein in
24 hours to be eligible).

- Known hypersensitivity to any component of bevacizumab
