Pediatric Brain Stem Glioma Clinical Trial
Official title:
Prospective Randomized Trial of Two Hypofractionated Radiotherapy Regimens Versus Conventional Radiotherapy in Pediatric Diffuse Brainstem Glioma
This Trial offers a reduction in patient burden, which is especially preferable in children with a poor compliance and poor performance status. This prospective randomized trial was extension to the previous controlled prospective study performed in Children's Cancer Hospital, Egypt and registered at clinicaltrials.com (NCT01635140). The ultimate aim of this work is to demonstrate noninferiority of the hypofractionated regimens relative to the conventional regimen in a controlled randomized clinical study.
In this study will add a third arm in which we will increase in the total dose to 4500 cGy in 15 fractions in 3 weeks may lead to improvement in Over-all survival or Progression-Free Survival. ;
