MT2015-25: Tandem Myeloablative Consolidation Therapy and Autologous Stem Cell Rescue for High-Risk Neuroblastoma
The primary purpose of this study is to gain information, especially disease free outcomes, using the tandem approach as compared to the historical information of using a single transplant. The data will be analyzed for transplant “milestones” such as time to blood count recovery and how patients are doing at 3 months and 1 year after the treatment. Participation in this study will not alter treatment or medical care. All information for this study will be collected from medical records.

COG ACNS1931 - A Phase 3 Study of Selumetinib (NSC# 748727, IND# 77782) or Selumetinib in Combination with Vinblastine for non-NF1, non-TSC Patients with Recurrent or Progressive Low-Grade Gliomas (LGGs) Lacking BRAFV600E or IDH1 Mutations
This phase III trial investigates the best dose of vinblastine in combination with selumetinib and the benefit of adding vinblastine to selumetinib compared to selumetinib alone in treating children and young adults with low-grade glioma (a common type of brain cancer) that has come back after prior treatment (recurrent) or does not respond to therapy (progressive). Selumetinib is a drug that works by blocking a protein that lets tumor cells grow without stopping. Vinblastine blocks cell growth by stopping cell division and may kill cancer cells. Giving selumetinib in combination with vinblastine may work better than selumetinib alone in treating recurrent or progressive low-grade glioma.
• ages 2 to 21 at time of starting the study
• diagnosis of low-grade glioma or low-grade astrocytoma brain tumor

• contact study staff for additional criteria
• treatment for another tumor in the past year
• any serious medical or mental health diagnosis, including substance use disorders or ophthalmological conditions (study staff will review)
• women who are pregnant or breast feeding
NRG-BN011: A Phase III Trial of Lomustine-Temozolomide Combination Therapy Versus Standard Temozolomide in Patients with Methylated MGMT Promoter Glioblastoma
We are looking at adding lomustine to temozolomide and radiation therapy when compared to temozolomide and radiation therapy alone (usual care). We will compare the effect (shrinking or stabilizing) and side effects when treating newly diagnosed MGMT methylated glioblastoma. Each of the drugs and radiation work in a different way to stop the growth of tumor cells.
