Proton Craniospinal Irradiation With Bone Sparing to Decrease Growth Decrement From Radiation

Conditions

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 research study is studying proton radiation as a possible treatment for brain tumor that requires radiation. The radiation involved in this study is: -Proton Radiation

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Ages Eligible for Study:3 Years to 18 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:CHILD, ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * Age ≥ 3 years and ≤ 18 years at the time of registration
  2. * Histologically proven malignancy necessitating cranio-spinal irradiation. This will include patients with a diagnosis of medulloblastoma, Supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumor (SPNET), germ cell tumor (GCT), disseminated ependymoma, embryonal tumor with abundant neuropil and true rosettes (ETANTR), Atypical Teratoid/Rhabdoid Tumor (ATRT), and disseminated low-grade glioma (LGG).
  3. * Life expectancy ≥ 12 months.
  4. * Signed informed consent document and assent when appropriate.
  5. * HGB of \> 10 g/L and PLT count \> 80 K/uL
  1. * Any prior therapeutic radiation therapy \> 500 cGy has been delivered.
  2. * Individuals with a history of a different malignancy are ineligible except for the following circumstances: if they have been disease-free for at least 5 years and are deemed by the investigator to be a low-risk for recurrence of that malignancy; or, have had only cervical cancer in situ, or basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin.
  3. * Any major uncontrolled or poorly controlled intercurrent illness that would limit compliance with study requirements.
  4. * Pregnant females are excluded. Females of childbearing age/menstruating must confirm that either they are not sexually active or have a negative pregnancy test prior to initiation of radiation therapy.
  5. * Patients that receive concurrent chemotherapy with the exception of concurrent Vincristine.
