Summary

This study is testing whether an experimental treatment called Antineoplaston therapy can help control DIPG, a rare and aggressive brainstem tumor that is very hard to treat. It is enrolling children and adults with DIPG who have either tried standard treatments or have chosen not to use them. The main goal is to see if the treatment shrinks tumors and helps patients live longer.
