Brain and Central Nervous System Tumors
Intrathecal Radioimmunotherapy, Radiation Therapy, and Chemotherapy After Surgery in Treating Patients With Medulloblastoma
RATIONALE: Radioimmunotherapy uses radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies to locate tumor cells and deliver radioactive tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells.
- Trial name
- NCT00058370

Brain and Central Nervous System Tumors
Erlotinib and Radiation Therapy in Treating Young Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioma
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
- Trial name
- NCT00124657
- Testing
- Erlotinib hydrochloride
- Where
- 3 sites in United States
- Volunteers
- 62 people
