Bevacizumab and irinotecan treatment for progressive diffuse brainstem glioma: case report.

Roy Torcuator1, Richard Zuniga, Randa Loutfi, Tom Mikkelsen.   

Abstract

Diffuse brainstem glioma carries a dismal prognosis. The current cornerstone of treatment is radiation therapy. Chemotherapy appears to be ineffective and the role of this treatment in the recurrent or progressive setting is not known. Bevacizumab and irinotecan have been reported to have shown radiographic response and improvement in progression-free survival among patients with malignant supratentorial gliomas. In this paper, we report our experience in an adult patient with progressive diffuse brainstem glioma treated with bevacizumab and irinotecan.
