Summary

This study tested a special vaccine made from the child's own immune cells (dendritic cells) to fight aggressive brain tumors like high-grade glioma and DIPG. Ten children received the vaccine alongside standard treatments. The goal was to see if the vaccine was safe, possible to make, and could boost the immune system to slow tumor growth.
