RECRUITING

A Vaccine (Neoantigen-Targeted ppDC) for the Treatment of H3 G34-mutant Diffuse Hemispheric Glioma

Conditions

Diffuse Hemispheric Glioma, H3 G34-Mutant

Quick Navigation

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This phase I trial tests the safety and side effects, and best dose of a vaccine (neoantigen-target ppDC) in treating patients with H3 G34-mutant diffuse hemispheric glioma. Vaccines made from the patient's own white blood cells and peptide-pulsed dendritic cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Giving neoantigen-targeted ppDC may be safe, tolerable and/or effective in treating patients with diffuse hemispheric glioma with a H3 G34 mutation.
