Study Summary

The goal of this interventional study is to Assess the safety and tolerability of atovaquone in combination with standard radiation therapy (RT) for the treatment of pediatric patients with newly diagnosed pediatric high-grade glioma/diffuse midline glioma/diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (pHGG/DMG/DIPG). The secondary aim is to assess the safety and tolerability of longer-term atovaquone treatment for pediatric patients with relapsed or progressed pHGG/DMG/DIPG and medulloblastoma (MB) or pHGG/DMG/DIPG after completion of RT and before progression.

Primary Outcome

Adverse events that meet definition of DLT and tolerability. The outcome will be evaluated by descriptive statistics. Rates of symptomatic and asymptomatic radiation necrosis will also be estimated for Stratum 1 patients.
