Study Summary

The study will assess the immunogenicity, safety and preliminary clinical efficacy of the glioma associated antigen (GAA)/tetanus toxoid (TT) peptide vaccine and poly-ICLC in HLA-A2+ children with unresectable low-grade gliomas that have received at least two chemotherapy/biologic regimens. Radiation therapy counts as one biologic regimen, but patients may not have received radiation to the index lesion within 1 year of enrollment.

Primary Outcome

Participants who demonstrate radiological evidence of tumor shrinkage or stable disease without regimen-limiting toxicity (RLT) after the initial 8 vaccines will be eligible to receive additional vaccinations beginning week 24 and every 6 weeks thereafter for up to two years.
