Summary

This study tests a drug called tovorafenib in children and young adults (ages 1 to 39) who have been newly diagnosed with a fast-growing brain tumor (high-grade glioma or DIPG) that has a specific genetic change. The goal is to see if the drug can help them live longer by targeting the altered pathway in their tumor. About 79 participants will receive the drug after radiation therapy.
