Cohort 1 is for patients with diffuse midline glioma, diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma, medulloblastoma, or another rare high-grade glioma that expresses GD2. Cohort 2 is for patients with a type of cancer called progressive diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma that expresses GD2.\n\nBecause there is no standard treatment at this time, patients are asked to volunteer in a gene transfer research study using special immune cells called T cells. T cells are a type of white blood cell that help the body fight infection.\n\nThis research study combines two different ways of fighting cancer: antibodies and T cells. Both antibodies and T cells have been used to treat cancer patients. They have shown promise but have not been strong enough to cure most patients.\n\nResearchers have found from previous research that they can put a new antibody gene into T cells that will make them recognize cancer cells and kill them. GD2 is a protein found on several different cancers. Researchers testing brain cancer cells found that many of these cancers also have GD2 on their surface.\n\nIn a study for neuroblastoma in children, a gene called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) was made from an antibody that recognizes GD2. This gene was put into the patients own T cells and given back to 11 patients. The cells did grow for a while but started to disappear from the blood after 2 weeks. The researchers think that if T cells are able to last longer they may have a better chance of killing tumor cells.\n\nIn this study, a new gene will be added to the GD2 T cells that can potentially cause the cells to live longer. T cells need substances called cytokines to survive. The gene C7R has been added that gives the cells a constant supply of cytokine and helps them to survive for a longer period of time.\n\nIn other studies using T cells researchers found that giving chemotherapy before the T cell infusion can improve the amount of time the T cells stay in the body and therefore the effect the T cells can have. This is called lymphodepletion and it will allow the T cells to expand and stay longer in the body and potentially kill cancer cells more effectively.\n\nAfter treating 11 patients, the largest safe dose of GD2-CAR T cells given in the vein (IV) was determined. We are now combining an IV infusion with an infusion directly into the brain through the Ommaya reservoir or programmable VP shunt. The goal is to find the largest safe dose of GD2-C7R T cells that can be administered in this way.\n\nPatients will now be assigned to Cohort 1 and 2 based on their tumor type.\n\nThe GD2.C7R T cells are an investigational product not approved by the FDA.\n\nThe purpose of this study is to combine infusions into the vein in the first treatment cycle with infusions directly into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain (intracerebroventricularly) through the ommaya reservoir or programmable VP shunt for infusions cycles 2-24. The goal is to find the largest safe dose of GD2-C7R T cells that can be administered in this way, and additionally to evaluate how long they can be detected in the blood and CSF and what affect they have on brain cancer.",[30,162,365,366],"Embryonal Tumor","Ependymal Tumor",[368,369,370,34,35,371,372,114,373,374,375],"Gene Therapy","CAR T-cells","chimeric antigen receptor","Glioma","Brain tumor","ETMRs","Medulloepithelioma","Atypical teratoid\u002Frhabdoid tumors","2026-04-23",{"date":378,"type":41},"2026-04-27",{"date":380,"type":41},"2020-02-03",{"date":382,"type":23},"2041-02",{"name":384,"class":48},"Baylor College of Medicine",{"id":386,"slug":387,"hasResults":12,"nctId":388,"briefTitle":389,"officialTitle":390,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":391,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":18,"minAge":89,"maxAge":57,"enrollmentInfo":392,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":24,"phases":394,"briefSummary":395,"conditions":396,"keywords":403,"overallStatus":72,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":405,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":406,"startDateStruct":408,"completionDateStruct":410,"leadSponsor":412,"locationsCount":49},"100376708","phase-1-study-of-b7-h3-specific-car-t-cell-locoregional-immunotherapy-for-diffuse-intrinsic-pontine-gliomadiffuse-midline-glioma-and-recurrent-or-refractory-pediatric-central-nervous-system-tumors-100376708","NCT04185038","Study of B7-H3-Specific CAR T Cell Locoregional Immunotherapy for Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma\u002FDiffuse Midline Glioma and Recurrent or Refractory Pediatric Central Nervous System Tumors","Phase 1 Study of B7-H3-Specific CAR T Cell Locoregional Immunotherapy for Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma\u002FDiffuse Midline Glioma and Recurrent or Refractory Pediatric Central Nervous System Tumors","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.

The T cells will then be bioengineered into a second-generation CAR T cell that targets B7H3-expressing tumor cells. Patients will be assigned to one of 3 treatment arms based on location or type of their tumor. Patients with supratentorial tumors will be assigned to Arm A, and will receive their treatment into the tumor cavity. Patients with either infratentorial or metastatic\u002Fleptomeningeal tumors will be assigned to Arm B, and will have their treatment delivered into the ventricular system. The first 3 patients enrolled onto the study must be at least 15 years of age and assigned to Arm A or Arm B. Patients with DIPG will be assigned to Arm C and have their treatment delivered into the ventricular system. The patient's newly engineered T cells will be administered via the indwelling catheter for two courses. In the first course patients in Arms A and B will receive a weekly dose of CAR T cells for three weeks, followed by a week off, an examination period, and then another course of weekly doses for three weeks. Patients in Arm C will receive a dose of CAR T cells every other week for 3 weeks, followed by a week off, an examination period, and then dosing every other week for 3 weeks. Following the two courses, patients in all Arms will undergo a series of studies including MRI to evaluate the effect of the CAR T cells and may have the opportunity to continue receiving additional courses of CAR T cells if the patient has not had adverse effects and if more of their T cells are available.\n\nThe hypothesis is that an adequate amount of B7H3-specific CAR T cells can be manufactured to complete two courses of treatment with 3 or 2 doses given on a weekly schedule followed by one week off in each course. The other hypothesis is that B7H3-specific CAR T cells can safely be administered through an indwelling CNS catheter or delivered directly into the brain via indwelling catheter to allow the T cells to directly interact with the tumor cells for each patient enrolled on the study. Secondary aims of the study will include evaluating CAR T cell distribution with the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), the extent to which CAR T cells egress or traffic into the peripheral circulation or blood stream, and, if tissues samples from multiple timepoints are available, also evaluate disease response to B7-H3 CAR T cell locoregional therapy.",[116,30,122,397,398,399,64,400,401,402,371],"Ependymoma","Medulloblastoma, Childhood","Germ Cell Tumor","Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor","Choroid Plexus Carcinoma","Pineoblastoma, Childhood",[404],"CNS, CAR T cell, B7-H3, pediatric, young adult, brain tumor, DIPG, DMG","2026-04-07",{"date":407,"type":41},"2026-04-13",{"date":409,"type":41},"2019-12-11",{"date":411,"type":23},"2042-05",{"name":413,"class":48},"Seattle Children's Hospital",{"id":415,"slug":416,"hasResults":12,"nctId":417,"briefTitle":418,"officialTitle":419,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":420,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":18,"minAge":274,"maxAge":189,"enrollmentInfo":421,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":24,"phases":423,"briefSummary":424,"conditions":425,"keywords":428,"overallStatus":37,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":431,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":432,"startDateStruct":434,"completionDateStruct":436,"leadSponsor":438,"locationsCount":4},"100608845","phase-2-study-of-tovorafenib-in-high-grade-glioma-and-diffuse-intrinsic-pontine-glioma-dipg-100608845","NCT07206849","Study of Tovorafenib in High-Grade Glioma and Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG)","A Phase 2 Study of Tovorafenib in Pediatric and Young Adult Patients Newly Diagnosed With High-Grade Glioma (HGG), Including Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG), Which Harbor Alterations in the Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) Pathway","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patient must have previously enrolled on TarGeT-SCR.\n\n  1.
