Study Summary

The blood brain barrier (BBB) prevents some drugs from successfully reaching the target tumor. Focused Ultrasound (FUS) using microbubbles and neuro-navigator controlled sonication is a non-invasive method of temporarily opening up the blood brain barrier to allow a greater concentration of the drug to reach into the brain tumor. This may improve response and may also reduce system side effects in the patient. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of safely opening the blood brain barrier in children with progressive diffuse midline gliomas (DMG) treated with oral etoposide using focused ultrasound with microbubbles and neuro-navigator-controlled sonication. For the purpose of the study, the investigators will be opening up the blood brain barrier temporarily in one or two locations around the tumor using the non-invasive focused ultrasound technology, and administrating oral etoposide in children with progressive diffuse midline glioma.

Primary Outcome

This is to evaluate the safety of using focused ultrasound to open the blood brain barrier at one or two sites for administration of etoposide in children with progressive diffuse midline glioma. Safety will be assessed by adverse events as per the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0 (including abnormalities from physical and neurologic examinations, laboratory values, and radiographic results).
