Study Description

This is a phase 2 study designed to evaluate the safety of a drug called Lutathera in patients 12 to <18 years old with GEP-NET and PPGL disease. For patients on the study, this drug will be infused 4 times at 8-week intervals. After the infusions are complete, a follow-up period will take place after the last dose for each patient who received at least one dose of Lutathera.

Inclusion Criteria

• Patients must have a diagnosis of GEP-NET or PPGL that has gotten worse or can not be operated on
• Patients must be between 12 to <18 years old at the time of enrollment
• Patients must be up and about for over half of their waking hours
• Patients and their families (as applicable) must agree to sign the written informed consent forms outlined by the study team

Other inclusion and exclusion criteria may apply and will be discussed with you by the study team.

Study Description

This is a Phase 3 study to evaluate how safe and effective a drug called tovorafenib is when compared to standard of care chemotherapy. This study is for patients with low-grade glioma (LGG) who have a genetic mutation called a RAF alteration. 

Inclusion Criteria

• Patients must be under 25 years of age to participate
• Must have a diagnosis of a low grade glioma that has RAF alteration 

Other inclusion and exclusion criteria may apply and will be discussed with you by the study team.

Study Description

This study looks to assess if additional intensive treatment for patients with medulloblastoma and other embryonal brain tumors improves outcomes without adding significant short or long-term side effects. 

Inclusion Criteria

Patients 10 years of age of less with a diagnosis of medulloblastoma or CNS embryonal tumors of the brain or spinal cord. Any stage of medulloblastoma or CNS embryonal tumor in children less than 6 years old are eligible, whereas only high risk patients from 6-10 years of age are eligible. 

Multiple other inclusion and exclusion criteria could apply and will be reviewed by your treating team.

Study Description

The study's purpose is to see if the drug, abemaciclib, is safe and effective when given with other drugs to kill cancer cells. The study is open to children and young adults with solid tumors, including neuroblastoma, that did not respond or grew during other anti-cancer treatment.

Inclusion Criteria

• Participants must be ≤ 18 years of age (Part A and B only) or < 21 years of age (Part C only)
• Must have adequate body surface area (BSA)
• Participants must have a solid tumour (excluding lymphoma) that has come back or progressed on standard therapies
• PART C ONLY: Participants with neuroblastoma that has come back or progressed on standard therapies
• Participants must be able to be up and about for at least half of their waking hours
• Participants of reproductive potential must not be pregnant within 7 days of and during the study
• Ability to swallow
• Participants and their families (as applicable) must agree to the study assessments by signing an informed consent form

Other inclusion and exclusion criteria may apply and will be discussed with you by the study team

Study Description

This trial studies how well cisplatin and combination chemotherapy works in treating children and young adults with hepatoblastoma or liver cancer after surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, doxorubicin, fluorouracil, vincristine sulfate, carboplatin, etoposide, irinotecan, sorafenib, gemcitabine and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving combination chemotherapy after surgery may kill more tumor cells.


Inclusion Criteria

• Patients must be newly diagnosed with hepatic malignancies (liver cancers) such as hepatoblastoma or hepatocellular carcinoma
• Patients must be under 30 years of age 
• All patients and/or their parents or legal guardians must sign a written informed consent

Study Description

Testing the Combination of Two Immunotherapy Drugs (Nivolumab and Ipilimumab) in Children, Adolescent, and Young Adult Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Cancers That Have an Increased Number of Genetic Changes, The 3CI Study

This study investigates the side effects of the combination of two immunotherapy medications called nivolumab and ipilimumab, and to see how well they work in treating children, adolescents and young adults with cancers that have come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) and have an increased number of genetic changes. Immunotherapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

This study is being done to help doctors learn if the combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab can help children, adolescents, and young adults patients live longer.

This study will have two parts

• PART I: A tissue sample from the tumour is analysed for "tumour mutation burden" level. Patients with elevated level may be eligible for Part II.
• PART II: Patients receive receive treatment with nivolumab or nivolumab and ipilimumab.

Inclusion Criteria

• Age from 12 months to 25 years
• Patient with a cancer that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory)
• All tumours can be considered except leukemia and diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma
• The tumour will be tested (part 1). It needs to to have an increased number of genetic changes for the patient to be considered for part 2
• Multiple other inclusion and exclusion criteria could apply and will be reviewed by your treating team
