HSV G207 in Children With Recurrent or Refractory Cerebellar Brain Tumors

Clinical trial: Testing HSV G207 for children's recurring brain tumors.

Recruiting
36-22 years
All
Phase 1

This study is testing a new treatment called G207 for kids with recurring brain tumors in the cerebellum (part of the brain). G207 is a special type of virus called an oncolytic virus, which means it can attack and kill cancer cells without harming normal cells. The study will also see if using a tiny amount of radiation helps the virus work better. It's supported by the FDA OOPD (Food and Drug Administration Office of Orphan Products Development).

  • The study is for kids aged 3 to 21 with specific brain tumors that have come back or haven't responded to other treatments.
  • Participants may get just the virus or the virus plus a small dose of radiation.
  • Doctors will closely check the treatment's safety and gather early results on how well it works.

To join, patients must have tried other treatments first, be in good health (like having enough blood cells and kidney function), and not be pregnant. They also need permission from a doctor or guardian. Some kids won't qualify, like those with certain infections or taking specific medicines. The study will help researchers learn more about fighting these tough-to-treat tumors.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
