RECURRENT MEDULLOBLASTOMA

This phase 2 trial tested the drug ivosidenib in children and young adults (ages 1 to 21) with solid tumors, lymphomas, or histiocytic disorders that have an IDH1 mutation and have either come back after treatment or not responded. The goal was to see if the drug could shrink or …

This trial tests the drug savolitinib in children and adults whose brain tumors (medulloblastoma, high-grade glioma, or DIPG) have come back or not responded to treatment. The drug works by blocking an enzyme that some tumor cells need to grow. The study aims to find the safest d…

This phase 2 trial tests the drug selpercatinib in children and young adults (ages 1 to 21) with advanced cancers that have a specific genetic change called a RET alteration. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink tumors or stop them from growing. Only one participant has been…

This early-stage trial tests a vaccine called PEP-CMV in 30 children and young adults (ages 3–35) whose medulloblastoma or malignant glioma has come back. The vaccine is designed to train the immune system to attack tumor cells that carry a common virus protein (CMV). Participant…

This study tests a drug called ulixertinib in children and teens whose advanced cancers have a specific genetic change in the MAPK pathway. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink or control the tumor. About 20 participants with various solid tumors, lymphomas, or related disor…

This phase 2 trial is testing the drug larotrectinib in children and young adults (ages 1 to 21) with advanced solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or histiocytic disorders that have a specific genetic change called an NTRK fusion. The cancers have either come back after treatment…

This study tested the drug ensartinib in 13 children and young adults (ages 1–21) whose cancers had come back or did not respond to treatment and had specific ALK or ROS1 gene changes. The goal was to see if the drug could shrink or stop tumor growth. While the drug targets cance…

This study tests a drug called tipifarnib in children and young adults (ages 1 to 21) whose cancers have a specific change in the HRAS gene. The cancers are advanced or have come back after treatment. The goal is to see if tipifarnib can shrink tumors or stop them from growing. A…

This early-stage trial is testing the safety and potential benefit of pembrolizumab, an immunotherapy drug, in 71 children whose brain tumors (like DIPG, high-grade gliomas, or medulloblastoma) have come back or not responded to standard treatments. The drug works by helping the …

This Phase 2 trial tests a new approach for children whose medulloblastoma or ependymoma has come back. It combines a radioactive antibody (omburtamab) delivered directly into the brain's fluid spaces with standard chemotherapy drugs. The goal is to see if this combination can he…

This study aimed to test a new way to treat brain tumors that came back after standard therapy. The plan was to deliver immunotherapy (nivolumab) plus chemotherapy directly into the fluid spaces of the brain in children and adults. However, the study was withdrawn before any part…

This study screens children and teens with advanced solid tumors, lymphomas, or histiocytic disorders to find genetic changes in their cancer cells. Participants undergo biopsies and scans to identify mutations that can be targeted by specific drugs. The goal is to see if matchin…
