What is the success of avastin (bevacizumab) for treating glioblastoma? does it work?

Marginal: It is primarily being used to treat recurrent malignant gliomas . The latest results with its use as a frontline treatment for malignant glioma show no real benefit over the current conventional regimen using radiation therapy and chemotherapy with temodar (temozolomide).
