For recurrent glioblastoma treated with combined re-irradiation and bevacizumab, how long do you continue bevacizumab?

Would you continue it until progression of disease? Or would you switch immediately to next line systemic therapy?

In the event of recurrent GBM, for example, if i.e. fSRT regimen like 30 Gy/5fx to be used for salvage, would not exceed more than 12 doses (6 cycles) of bevacizumab max. Even in the pseudo-response setting, the toxicity far outweighs the benefit beyond this.
