PURPOSE: This screening and multi-sub-study phase II trial studies how well treatment that is directed by genetic testing works in pediatric patients with solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphomas, or histiocytic disorders that have progressed following at least one line of standard systemic therapy and/o ...More
This phase II clinical trial will have 3 strata in order to assess the efficacy of a highly immunogenic CMV-directed peptide vaccines in children with (1) recurrent medulloblastoma (rMB), (2) newly-diagnosed high-grade gliomas (HGG) and (3) newly-diagnosed diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG). Ea ...More
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Lutathera (177Lu-DOTATATE) in pediatric and young adult patients with progressive or recurrent High-Grade Central Nervous System (CNS) tumors and meningiomas (any grade) that express Somatostatin Type 2A Receptors by immunohistochemistry and demons ...More
A pilot pharmacokinetic trial to determine the safety and efficacy of a flavored, orally administered irinotecan VAL-413 (Orotecan®) given with temozolomide for treatment of recurrent pediatric solid tumors including but not limited to neuroblastoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, hepatoblasto ...More
Indoximod was developed to inhibit the IDO (indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase) enzymatic pathway, which is important in the natural regulation of immune responses. This potent immune suppressive mechanism has been implicated in regulating immune responses in settings as diverse as infection, tissue/organ ...More
This clinical trial studies the side effects and best dose of pembrolizumab and to see how well it works in treating younger patients with high-grade gliomas (brain tumors) or diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (brain stem tumors) that have come back, progressed, or have not responded to previous tre ...More
This is a multicenter pilot study of SurVaxM (SVN53-67/M57-KLH) for children and young adults with progressive or relapsed medulloblastoma, high grade glioma, ependymoma and newly diagnosed diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma. Survivin (BIRC5) is an inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) protein that is highly e ...More
Phase I component is a dose-escalation study. The Phase II component is to establish the safety of 1000mg BID given continuously. The study will open with a safety cohort of 3 subjects who are considered skeletally-mature. The initial 3 subjects will be administered CX-4945 twice a day at the adult ...More
This trial is a multi-center, non-randomized, open-label Phase I/II study evaluating the feasibility and efficacy of vincristine, irinotecan, temozolomide, and atezolizumab in children with relapsed/refractory solid tumors. In this study, we will test the combination of atezolizumab with chemotherap ...More
This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effect of volitinib in treating participants with Medulloblastoma, High-Grade Glioma or Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma that have come or does not respond to treatment. Volitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes nee ...More
