Direct brain infusion trial offers new hope for kids with relapsed glioma
NCT ID NCT05956821
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether giving two drugs (cetuximab and bevacizumab) directly into the brain's blood vessels each month is safe and can shrink tumors or slow their growth. It includes children and young adults under 22 with certain types of brain tumors that have come back or not responded to standard treatment. The goal is to control the disease, not cure it, and participants will be closely monitored for side effects and tumor response.
