NCT ID NCT02864888

Summary

This study aims to see if an experimental drug combination for a severe childhood brain tumor affects the heart's electrical rhythm. It will monitor 30 children and young adults (ages 3-21) with a newly diagnosed brainstem glioma. The main goal is to check for any heart safety issues by comparing patients receiving the drug plus radiation to those receiving radiation alone.
