Summary

This study tests whether adding the experimental drug PEN-866 to two standard chemotherapy drugs (vincristine and temozolomide) can help adolescents and young adults (ages 12–39) whose solid tumors have come back or stopped responding to treatment. The goal is to find the safest dose and see if the combination shrinks tumors. Participants receive up to 18 cycles of treatment and are followed for long-term effects.
