About this trial
This is an open-label, comprehensive, iterative investigation of evaluating the use of induction chemotherapy, high-dose chemotherapy, and focal radiation therapy in children with newly diagnosed Embryonal Tumor With Multilayered Rosettes (ETMR).
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Participants must have either a molecularly or histologically confirmed embryonal tumor with multilayered rosettes.
For enrollment, a confirmation of a minimum of 10-20 unstained formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) slides or 1 block (15-20 mg) with tumor content of 40% or greater is required. Anything less must be discussed and approved by the study chairs prior to enrollment.
Cohort 1 participants must not have received any prior tumor-directed therapy other than surgical resection.
Cohort 2 and 3 participants may receive tumor-directed therapy prior to enrollment. These participants must be discussed with study chairs prior to enrollment.
Disqualifiers
Cohort 1 only: Participants who have received any prior tumor-directed therapy other than surgical intervention
Participants who are receiving any other tumor directed investigational agents.
History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to the agents used in study.
Uncontrolled intercurrent illness.

Treatments tested in this trial
Radiotherapy (RT)
RadiationUndergo RT
Chemotherapy Drug, Cancer - Physician's Choice
DrugOne or more of the following may be assigned by the physician (physician's choice) per standard of care guidelines upon study enrollment following surgery: Cytarabine, Carboplatin, Cisplatin, Vincristine Sulfate injection (Vincristine PFS), Topotecan Hydrochloride, Dactinomycin, Thiotepa, Filgrastim, Cyclophosphamide, or Doxorubicin Hydrochloride. Not all participants will receive all possible drug regimens.
Non-Investigational Surgical Resection
Procedure/SurgeryUndergo surgery directly before study enrollment as part of planned care.
Temozolomide
DrugParticipants assigned to or whom receive optional RT will receive concurrent temozolomide
Tumor Tissue Sample
Procedure/SurgeryTumor tissue will be collected for correlative studies
Blood Sample
Procedure/SurgeryBlood samples will be collected for correlative studies
Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Sample
Procedure/SurgeryCSF samples will be collected for correlative studies
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Median Progression-free survival at 6 months (PFS6) (Cohort 1)
The median PFS6 is defined as the median number of months for participants in Cohort 1 who have remained progression-free from the date of initial surgical resection until 6 months.
Secondary outcomes
Median Progression-free survival at 2 years progression-free survival (PFS)
The median PFS6 is defined as the median number of months for participants by cohort who have remained progression-free from the date of initial surgical resection until 2 years post-surgery.
Median Overall Survival at 2 years (OS)
The median OS is defined as the median number of months for participants by cohort who are still alive from the date of initial surgical resection until 2 years post-surgery.
