Clinical trials: Solid Tumor Leptomeningeal Metastasis
AIDS-related Diffuse Large Cell Lymphoma, AIDS-related Diffuse Mixed Cell Lymphoma
Topotecan Hydrochloride in Treating Children With Meningeal Cancer That Has Not Responded to Previous Treatment
Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. This phase II trial is studying how well topotecan hydrochloride works in treating children with meningeal cancer that…
