DIPG/High Grade Glioma New Diagnosis

A Study of the Drug Selinexor With Radiation Therapy in Patients With Newly-Diagnosed Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine (DIPG) Glioma and High-Grade Glioma (HGG)

  • Ages: 12 Months to 21 Years

This phase I/II trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of selinexor given in combination with standard radiation therapy in treating children and young adults with newly diagnosed diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) or high-grade glioma (HGG) with a genetic change called H3 K27M mut ...More

ACCL2031: A Study to See if Memantine Protects the Brain During Radiation Therapy Treatment for a Brain Tumor

  • Ages: 4 Years to 17 Years

This phase III trial compares memantine to usual treatment in treating patients with brain tumors that are newly diagnosed or has come back (recurrent). Memantine may block receptors (parts of nerve cells) in the brain known to contribute to a decline in cognitive function. Giving memantine may make ...More

BXQ-350AD: A Study of BXQ-350 in Children With Newly Diagnosed Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) or Diffuse Midline Glioma (DMG) (KONQUER)

  • Ages: 1 Year to 30 Years

This study will evaluate the safety of BXQ-350 and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in children with newly diagnosed DIPG or DMG. All patients will receive BXQ-350 by intravenous (IV) infusion and radiation therapy. The study is divided into two parts: Part 1 will enroll patients at increa ...More

CONNECT1702: A Phase 1b Study of PTC596 in Children With Newly Diagnosed Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma and High Grade Glioma

  • Ages: 36 Months to 21 Years

BRIEF SUMMARY: In this research study the investigators want to learn more about the safety of the study drug, PTC596 has when taken during radiation. The investigators also want to learn about the effects, if any, these drugs have on children and young adults with brain tumors. The investi ...More

CONNECT1903: A Pilot Study of Larotrectinib for Newly-Diagnosed High-Grade Glioma With NTRK Fusion

  • Ages: Up to 21 Years

This is a pilot study that will evaluate disease status in children that have been newly diagnosed high-grade glioma with TRK fusion. The evaluation will occur after 2 cycles of the medication (Larotrectinib) have been given. The study will also evaluate the safety of larotrectinib when given with c ...More

Dabrafenib Combined With Trametinib After Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Newly-Diagnosed High-Grade Glioma

  • Ages: 3 years to 25 years

This phase II trial studies how well the combination of dabrafenib and trametinib works after radiation therapy in children and young adults with high grade glioma who have a genetic change called BRAF V600 mutation. Radiation therapy uses high energy rays to kill tumor cells and reduce the size of ...More

Volitinib in Treating Participants with Recurrent or Refractory Medulloblastoma, High-Grade Glioma, or Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma

  • Ages: 6 Years to 21 Year

This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effect of volitinib in treating participants with Medulloblastoma, High-Grade Glioma or Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma that have come or does not respond to treatment. Volitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes nee ...More
