Brief Summary
The primary objective of this study is to determine the 6-month Progression free survival (PFS) when intravenous (IV) AR-67 is administered in adults with confirmed recurrence of GBM who have not recently (\> 90 days) recurred after treatment bevacizumab (including patients who've received temazolamide, but no bevacizumab). The primary objective in the rapid bevacizumab failure group (\< 90 days) is to determine the 2-month PFS.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Determine the 6-month Progression free survival (PFS) AR-67 is administered in adults with confirmed recurrence of GBM who have not recently (> 90 days) recurred after treatment bevacizumab.
Thirty-two (32) patients will be accrued to the non-bevacizumab failure cohort.
6 month PFS
The primary objective in the rapid bevacizumab failure group (< 90 days) is to determine the 2-month PFS.
26 subjects will be enrolled in the second cohort (Rapid Avastin Progressors).
2 month PFS
Secondary Outcomes (5)
the effect of AR-67 on overall survival (OS)
1 year

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Male or female age 18 years or older.
- Patient, or legal representative, able to provide study-specific informed consent after risks and benefits of treatment have been explained prior to screening.
- Confined histopathology of World Health Organization (WHO) Grade IV GBM or Gliosarcoma at primary diagnosis or recurrence by local pathology review.
- Unequivocal radiographic evidence of recurrence of tumor by MRI within 14 days prior to enrollment.
- Patients who have progressed, had surgery, and have no measurable disease are eligible as long as they have adequately recovered from the surgery.
- Received prior radiotherapy and temozolomide treatment.
- Received last chemotherapy or biologic therapy treatment ≥14 days before first dose of study drug (≥42 days if nitrosourea or ≥90 days if bevacizumab for the non-bevacizumab failure cohort or therapeutic antibody was administered) or, for daily type regimens, ≥7 days or 5 half-lives of the drugs' pharmacokinetics/dynamics or biologic activities, whichever is longer, before the first dose of study drug. For subjects that have received prior chemotherapy, all toxicities need to have resolved ≤ Grade 1 prior to the administration of study drug. For the patients in the bevacizumab failure cohort, failure must have occurred within the prior 90 days of receiving the last bevacizumab dose.
- Completed radiotherapy ≥90 days before study starts.
- Completed the administration of any investigational agent ≥14 days or 5 half-lives of the drugs' PK/dynamics or biologic activities, whichever is longer, before study starts.
- Karnofsky performance status of ≥60%.
- Recovered to Grade 1 or less from the toxic effects of any earlier intervention.
- Patients receiving EIADs must be switched to non-EIADs at least 14 days prior to study start.
- Adequate renal, liver, and bone marrow function according to the following criteria:
- Absolute neutrophil count ≥1500/mcL
- Platelets ≥150,000/mcL
- +11 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Patients on therapeutic Coumadin; however, patients on therapeutic Coumadin that can switch to low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) at least 7 days prior to first dosing will be eligible for study participation.
- Female patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Prior malignancy other than curatively treated basal cell or cervical carcinoma in situ or adequately treated Stage I or II cancer from which the patient is currently in complete remission and from which the patient has been disease-free for three years.
- Uncontrolled concurrent illness including active infection requiring intravenous antibiotics, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
- Known HIV infection.
- Any other condition that would compromise treatment and/or evaluation with reasonable safety.
- Completed intracranial surgery ≤ 14 days before the study starts.
- Received an anti-epilpetic drug, which is a CYP3A4 inducer from ≤ 14 days prior to screening until study end. See Appendix 1 for the list of enzyme inducing anti-epileptic drugs.
- Inducers of CYP3A4 may also alter the metabolism of AR-67. The following list of CYP3A4 inducers are prohibited from 14 days prior to screening through discontinuation from the study:
- HIV: efavirenz, nevirapine
- Antibiotics: rifampin (rifampicin), rifabutin, rifapentine
- Antiretrovirals: efavirenz, nevirapine
- Miscellaneous: St. John's Wort, modafinil
- Anti-Epileptic Drugs: phenytoin, phenobarbital, primidone, carbamazapine, oxcarbazapine and topiramate
- Co-administration of AR-67 and medications that are substrates for the CYP450 enzymes and have the potential to cause serious and/or life-threatening AE's is prohibited. These medications include (but are not limited to):
- +18 more criteria
