Heart drug tested as new hope for kids with recurrent brain cancer

NCT ID NCT06701812

Summary

This study is testing if digoxin, a medication commonly used for heart conditions, can help control a rare and aggressive brain cancer called medulloblastoma when it has come back after initial treatment. It will involve about 23 children and young adults (ages 1-30) whose cancer has relapsed. The main goal is to see if the drug can keep the cancer from growing for at least 4 months.
