A Study Evaluating Limited Target Volume Boost Irradiation and Reduced Dose Craniospinal Radiotherapy (18.00 Gy) and Chemotherapy in Children With Newly Diagnosed Standard Risk Medulloblastoma: A Phase III Double Randomized Trial
-
- STATUS
- Not Recruiting
Summary
This randomized phase III trial is studying standard-dose radiation therapy to see how well it works compared to reduced-dose craniospinal radiation therapy AND posterior fossa boost radiation therapy to see how well it works compared to tumor bed boost radiation therapy when given together with chemotherapy in treating young patients who have undergone surgery for newly diagnosed standard-risk medulloblastoma.
Description
The purpose of this study is to compare event-free and overall survival of pediatric patients (3 to 7 years of age) with newly diagnosed standard-risk medulloblastoma treated with standard-dose vs reduced-dose craniospinal radiotherapy and posterior fossa boost vs tumor bed boost radiotherapy in combination with chemotherapy comprising vincristine, cisplatin, lomustine, and cyclophosphamide and to compare event-free and overall survival of these patients (8 to 21 years of age) treated with standard-dose craniospinal radiotherapy and posterior fossa boost vs tumor bed boost radiotherapy in combination with this chemotherapy regimen.
