Ribociclib and Everolimus in Treating Children With Recurrent or Refractory Malignant Brain Tumors
NCT03387020 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of ribociclib and everolimus and to see how well they work in treating patients with malignant brain tumors that have come back or do not respond to treatment. Ribociclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as everolimus, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving ribociclib and everolimus may work better at treating malignant brain tumors.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT03387020
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT03387020 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as Phase 1, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 22 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Pediatric Brain Tumor Consortium, which has 8 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 7 conditions, with Malignant Glioma appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 4 interventions — of which Laboratory Biomarker Analysis is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT03387020 reports 12 study locations spanning 10 distinct geographic areas — top geographies include California, Tennessee, Colorado. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
