Determine Maximum Tolerated Dose, Safety, and Tolerability of Rhenium (186Re) in Pediatric Recurrent, Refractory or Progressive Ependymoma and High-Grade Glioma
56 participantsStarted 2025-09
Plain-language summary
Pediatric patients 6-21 years of age with supratentorial recurrent, refractory, or progressive pediatric ependymoma and high-grade glioma (HGG) will be included in this study of treatment with Rhenium-186 Nanoliposome (186RNL). Phase 1 of the study will look to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of 186RNL in this patient population. Phase 2 of the study will use the recommended dose determined in Phase 1 to continue to look at overall response rate and progression-free survival following 186RNL treatment.

Inclusion criteria
. 6 years to 21 years\* of age.
. Lesion number and size:
. Phase 1a/b only: A single lesion (less than or equal to) ≤3.5 cm (longest axis) and volume of (less than or equal to) ≤22.4 mL as the largest tumor (subsequent to individual Cohort lesion size requirements).
. Phase 2a only: A single lesion or any number of multiple lesions separated by (less than or equal to) ≤3 cm; each lesion (less than or equal to) ≤3.5 cm (longest axis) and volume of (less than or equal to) ≤22.4 mL as the largest tumor.
. Diagnosis:
. Karnofsky Performance Status ≥ 60. For subjects \<16 years of age, Lansky score ≥ 60.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)
Timeframe: 28 days
2
Overall Response Rate (ORR) by RANO in Ependymoma
Timeframe: 90 days
3
Progression-Free Suvival at 12 months (PFS12) in HGG
. Serious intercurrent illness, as determined by the treating physician, which would compromise either patient safety or study outcomes such as:
. Hypertension (two or more blood pressure readings performed at screening of systolic blood pressure (SBP) or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) above 95th percentile for age) despite optimal treatment.
. Active medically significant infection unresponsive to antibiotics (e.g., non-healing wound, ulcer), uncontrolled systemic infection, or bone fracture.
