Plain-language summary
This pilot will study the feasibility and exploratory efficacy of using Cabozantinib for recurrent or refractory central nervous system tumors for which there are no curative options. Patients will also be followed for safety, time to progression, event free survival and overall survival

Inclusion criteria
✓. Age: Patients must be ≥2 years and ≤21 years of age
✓. Diagnosis: Patients with relapsed or refractory central nervous system tumors. Patients must have had histological verification of malignancy at original diagnosis or relapse. Metastatic disease to the spine or primary tumors in the spine are eligible. Patients may be in first, second, or third relapse. Subjects with intrinsic brain stem gliomas may be eligible with or without histological confirmation. Please contact study chair prior to enrollment.
✓. Disease Status: Patients must have measurable disease. Linear enhancement of leptomeningeal without measurable mass is excluded.
✓. Therapeutic Options: Patient's current disease state must be one for which there is no accepted standard therapy, no known curative therapy or therapy proven to prolong survival with an acceptable quality of life. For patients in whom surgery is feasible, maximal surgical resection must have occurred.
✓. Performance Level: Karnofsky ≥ 50% for patients \> 16 years of age and Lansky ≥ 50 for patients ≤ 16 years of age (See Appendix 1). Note: Neurologic deficits in patients must have been relatively stable for at least 7 days prior to study enrollment. Patients who are unable to walk because of paralysis, but who are in a wheelchair, will be considered ambulatory for the purpose of assessing the performance score.
✓. Subjects must have a reasonable life expectancy of at least 2 months.
. Pregnancy or Breast-Feeding: Pregnant or breast-feeding women will not be entered on this study due to risks of fetal and teratogentic adverse events as seen in animal/human studies. Pregnancy tests must be obtained in girls who are post-menarchal. Males or females of reproductive potential may not participate unless they have agreed to use two methods of birth control- a medically accepted barrier method of contraceptive method (e.g., male or female condom) and a second effective method of birth control- during protocol therapy and for at least 4 months after the last dose of cabozantinib. Abstinence is an acceptable method of birth control.
✕. Concomitant Medications:
✕. Corticosteroids: Patients receiving corticosteroids who have not been on a stable or decreasing dose of corticosteroid for at least 7 days prior to enrollment are not eligible.
✕. Investigational drugs: Patients who are currently receiving another investigational drug are not eligible.
✕. Anti-cancer agents: patients who are currently receiving other anti-cancer agents are not eligible.
✕. CYP3A4 active agents: Patients must not be receiving any of the following potent CYP3A4 inducers or inhibitors: erythromycin, clarithromycin, ketoconazole, azithromycin, itraconazole, grapefruit juice or St. John's wort. A list of other known CYP3A4 inducers and inhibitors that should be discontinued prior to initiation of protocol therapy and should be avoided during study therapy if reasonable alternatives exist is included in Appendix V.
✕. Patients who are receiving systemic therapeutic treatment anticoagulation are not eligible. Patients receiving prophylactic systemic anticoagulation will be allowed with heparin or LMWH as long as eligibility PT/INR requirements are met. Concomitant anticoagulation with oral anticoagulations (e.g. warfarin, direct thrombin and Factor Xa inhibitors) or platelet inhibitors (eg. Clopidogrel) are not allowed.
✕. Enzyme-inducing anticonvulsants: Patients must not have received enzyme-inducing anticonvulsants within 14 days prior to enrollment (See Appendix III for a list of unacceptable enzyme inducing anticonvulsants).
