Targeted Pediatric High-Grade Glioma Therapy

Molecularly-Guided Phase II Umbrella Trial for Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults Newly Diagnosed With High-Grade Glioma, Including Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma


Sponsor

Nationwide Children's Hospital

Enrollment

350 participants

Start Date

Aug 2, 2024

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The goal of this study is to perform genetic sequencing on brain tumors from children, adolescents, and young adult patients who have been newly diagnosed with a high-grade glioma. This molecular profiling will decide if patients are eligible to participate in a subsequent treatment-based clinical trial based on the genetic alterations identified in their tumor.


Eligibility

Min Age: 12 MonthsMax Age: 39 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study screens children and young adults with newly diagnosed high-grade brain tumors — including DIPG (diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma, an aggressive tumor in the brainstem) — to identify specific genetic mutations. The goal is to match patients to targeted treatments based on their tumor's molecular profile. **You may be eligible if...** - You are between 12 months and 39 years old - You have a newly diagnosed high-grade brain tumor (including DIPG) confirmed by biopsy or surgery - The diagnosis has been reviewed and confirmed by a pathologist **You may NOT be eligible if...** - Your tumor has not been confirmed by tissue biopsy - You have a low-grade brain tumor - You have already received treatment for this brain tumor without the required tumor profiling Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
