Early phase 1: testing CDK4/6 Inhibitor (Palbociclib, Ribociclib, Abemaciclib) for Medulloblastoma, Childhood

Medulloblastoma (MB), a rare yet critical pediatric brain tumor, is divided into 4 molecular subgroups (WNT, SHH, Group 3, Group 4), each with distinct genetic profiles. Despite diagnostic and therapeutic advances, neurotoxicity from standard treatments (resection, radiotherapy, chemotherapy) and the need for long-term care remain challenges.

Official registry: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06959979 · Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS · enrollment listed as 60

What this phase means

Phase 1: the first tests in people. The main question is safety and dose, not whether it cures the condition. Groups are small. Side effects are watched closely.

Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.

What the registry says happens

If you join, the listed intervention(s) are CDK4/6 Inhibitor (Palbociclib, Ribociclib, Abemaciclib). The registry lists allocation as randomized. Medulloblastoma (MB), a rare yet critical pediatric brain tumor, is divided into 4 molecular subgroups (WNT, SHH, Group 3, Group 4), each with distinct genetic profiles.

They plan to enroll about 60 people at Roma. Taking part typically means taking a study drug (or dummy pill) plus check-ins.

Phase 2: testing Pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

Background: The NCI Surgery Branch has developed an experimental therapy that involves taking white blood cells from patients' tumors, growing them in the laboratory in large numbers, and then giving the cells back to the patient. These cells are called Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes, or TIL and we have given this type of treatment to over 200 patients with melanoma.
