The most frequent revealing condition (in almost 50% of cases) is an intra-cerebral hemorrhage, which is a considerable source of disability and mortality. The only way to prevent a bleeding or a rebleeding is to perform an exclusion treatment (endovascular embolization, microsurgery, stereotactic radiosurgery, or a combination of these techniques). The major drawback of these treatments is the risk of severe complications, which can reach 20%, especially in patients presenting a bAVM with complex angio-architecture (i.e., grade IV to V in the Spetzler Martin grading scale). There is a growing evidence about the strong implication of angiogenesis (mainly mediated by the type A vascular endothelial growth factor \\[VEGF-A\\]) on the size and growth of the bAVM and even in the occurrence of bleeding events. Our hypothesis is that an in situ injection of bevacizumab, a monoclonal antibody inhibiting VEGF-A, in patients with bAVM deemed not suitable for exclusion treatment may be safe and help to reduce the nidus volume.', 'detailedDescription': 'The main objective of this trial is to evaluate the tolerance of 3 escalating doses of an in situ intra-arterial injection of bevacizumab in patients with a brain arteriovenous malformation (bAVM) considered non-suitable for an exclusion treatment to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) using the Dose-Limiting Toxicity rate (DLT) at 30 days after the injection. The dose limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as the occurrence within 30 days of the in-situ injection of bevacizumab of one of the following events: Symptomatic venous/arterial thromboembolic events (symptomatic pulmonary embolism, symptomatic deep venous thrombosis, symptomatic ischemic stroke related to an arterial occlusion); Severe cytopenia defined as follows: Anemia defined as hemoglobin (Hb) level less than 8.0 g/dL (grade ≥ III, according to the CTCAE v5.0, 2017) Thrombocytopenia \\< 50 G/L (grade ≥ III, according to the CTCAE v5.0, 2017), Neutropenia \\< 1000/μL (grade ≥ IV according to the CTCAE v5.0, 2017); hypertension grade ≥ III (CTCAE v5.0, 2017); symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage resulting in transcient or permanent neurological deficit; any bleeding requiring transfusion; leukoencephalopathy grade ≥ III (CTCAE v5.0, 2017); Onset of intractable seizures ≥ Grade III (CTCAE v5.0, 2017); thrombo-embolic complication during the endovascular procedure leading to permanent deficit or to death; Intracranial arterial perforation with the microcatheter or the microguide wire during the endovascular procedure resulting in severe symptomatic hemorrhage (disability or death); any other serious adverse reaction (any untoward medical occurrence in a subject, to whom the medicinal product is administered, and which have a causal relationship with this treatment) resulting in any disability or death.\n\nThe secondary objectives and endpoints are to evaluate 1) the tolerance of 3 escalating doses of an in situ intra-arterial injection of bevacizumab in patients with a bAVM considered non-suitable for an exclusion treatment up to 12 months of follow-up; 2) To evaluate the efficacy of an in situ intra-arterial injection of bevacizumab in patients with a bAVM considered non-suitable for an exclusion treatment in terms of :Nidus volume size reduction at 6 and 12 months, Occurrence of cerebral bleeding events up to 12 months, Occurrence of seizures up to 12 months'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '65 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
