Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety, toxicity, and antitumor activity of fourth ventricular infusions of nivolumab plus 5-azacytidine for recurrent ependymoma and nivolumab plus methotrexate for recurrent medulloblastoma and other CNS malignancies. Additionally, the study will explore immunologic responses to nivolumab. The hypothesis is that local administration of nivolumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor, is safe and will lead to even more robust treatment responses when administered following 5-azacytidine in patients with recurrent ependymoma or methotrexate in patients with medulloblastoma or other CNS tumors.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of the study drug known as ramucirumab in children with recurrent or refractory solid tumors including central nervous system (CNS) tumors.
The main goals of this Phase I study are to learn about the side effects that may occur when everolimus and bevacizumab are given to children and young adults and to find the highest doses of these drugs that can be given together without causing severe side effects. Bevacizumab will be given into the vein (IV) over 30-90 minutes every two weeks and everolimus tablets will be given daily by mouth. A cycle of therapy will be four weeks.
