About this study
Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) will be used in an open label, multicenter, study as Maintenance Therapy for Molecular High Risk/Very High Risk and Relapsed/Refractory Medulloblastoma.
Sponsor: Giselle Sholler
You may qualify if…
- ✓ 1. Age: 0-21 years of age at diagnosis
- ✓ 2. Pathology All patients must either have a pathologically confirmed diagnosis of medulloblastoma with molecular grouping identified by either Nanostring or methylation profiling.
- ✓ Cohort 1- Molecular High Risk:
- ✓ Metastatic non-MYC amplified Group 3
- ✓ Metastatic Group 4
- ✓ Metastatic non-WNT/non-SHH (Must be non-MYC amplified)
- ✓ Cohort 2- Molecular Very High Risk
- ✓ Metastatic OR MYCN amplified OR TP53 mutant non-infant (\>3 yrs) SHH
You may not qualify if…
- ✕ 1. BSA of \<0.25 m2
- ✕ 2. Metastatic disease outside of CNS
- ✕ 3. Relapsed/refractory patients who are radiation-naïve and age 5 years or older at time of enrollment
- ✕ 4. Investigational Drugs: Subjects who are currently receiving another investigational drug are excluded from participation.
- ✕ 5. Anti-cancer Agents: Subjects who are currently receiving other anticancer agents are not eligible. Subjects must have fully recovered from the hematological and bone marrow suppression effects of prior chemotherapy.
- ✕ 6. Infection: Subjects who have an uncontrolled infection are not eligible until the infection is judged to be well controlled in the opinion of the investigator.
