About this study

Official title: A Pilot Trial Testing the Clinical Benefit of Using Molecular Profiling to Determine an Individualized Treatment Plan in Children With Newly Diagnosed DIPG

This is a single arm multi-center pilot trial within the Pacific Pediatric Neuro-Oncology Consortium (PNOC). The current study will use a new treatment approach based on each patient's tumor genomic profiling consisting of whole exome sequencing and RNA sequencing as well as predictive modeling.

Read the detailed description

The current study will test whether patients gain a clinical benefit from such a treatment approach by comparing overall survival at 12 months (OS12) to historical controls. Newly diagnosed patients will receive an individualized treatment recommendation including up to four FDA approved drugs based on the molecular profile of the patient's tumor as determined by gene expression analysis, Whole-exome sequencing (WES) and predictive modeling, age of the patient and other existing medical conditions. Initial therapy will consist of standard radiation therapy per institutional guidelines followed by molecular based therapy with FDA approved drugs.

Being tested
Specialized tumor board recommendation, Standard radiation therapy
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Specialized tumor board recommendationOther

    A combination of up to four FDA approved drugs based on the molecular profile of the patient's tumor as determined by gene expression analysis, WES and predictive modeling.

  • Standard radiation therapyRadiation

    Initial therapy will consist of standard radiation therapy per institutional guidelines followed by molecular based therapy with FDA approved drugs.

TreatmentExperimentalThe treatment plan for each patient is individualized and different depending on what the Specialized Tumor Board recommends depending on the molecular profile of the patient's tumor.
Receives: Other: Specialized tumor board recommendation; Radiation: Standard radiation therapy

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To determine OS12 of children with newly diagnosed DIPG that are being treated based on a specialized tumor board recommendation which is based on RNA based expression analysis, WES and predictive modeling.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Specialized tumor board recommendation and Standard radiation therapy in people with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG), run by University of California, San Francisco at 5 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 0 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To determine OS12 of children with newly diagnosed DIPG that are being treated based on a specialized tumor board recommendation which is based on RNA based expression analysis, WES and predictive modeling. (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Nov 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
