Phase 2 Study of Weekly Vinorelbine in Children With Progressive or Recurrent Low-Grade Gliomas
Different treatments exist for children with progressive or recurrent low-grade glioma.
Each has variable efficacy at slowing or reversing growth, and exploration continues into
finding better-tolerated, more effective treatments.
Vinorelbine has recently generated interest in stabilizing some pediatric low-grade gliomas.
It has been fairly well tolerated in both adult and pediatric studies that have examined
its use in other tumors.
In addition, the quality of life for children with low-grade gliomas is important and
requires further study. This trial will incorporate an optional assessment using validated
neuropsychological testing throughout treatment to evaluate the quality of life of the child
being treated.
Objective: To test the efficacy of Vinorelbine in a larger number of children with pediatric
low-grade glioma that has returned or continues to grow.
In this trial, Vinorelbine will be given intravenously once a week for 6 weeks followed by a
2 week rest. This cycle can then be repeated for up to 1-2 years if providing clinical
benefit.
