Recruiting studies
- NCT06838676RecruitingPhase 2
ACT001 for DIPG and H3K27-altered high-grade gliomas
This trial tests a drug called ACT001 for people with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) or certain high-grade gliomas that have a specific genetic change (H3K27-altered). It includes two groups: one for newly diagnosed DIPG after radiation, and another for progressive or recurrent disease.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 1–39 - NCT07680439RecruitingPhase 2
CAR T cell therapy study for children with DIPG brain tumor
This trial tests a new CAR T cell therapy (BCB-276) for children and young adults with a type of brain tumor called DIPG. The therapy uses your own immune cells that are specially trained to attack the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 1–26 - NCT06140719Recruiting
Study to speed up DIPG and DMG research
This trial collects information from people with a rare type of brain tumor called DIPG or DMG. The goal is to help researchers learn more about these tumors and find better treatments faster.
Los Altos, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06221553RecruitingPhase 1
New CAR T-cell treatment for DIPG brain tumor
This trial tests a new type of immunotherapy called B7H3 IL-7Ra CAR T-cells for children with DIPG, a tough-to-treat brain tumor. The treatment is given directly into the fluid around the brain using a special catheter, and the goal is to see if it's safe and if it can help fight the tumor.
Bangkok, PathumwanAges 1–18 - NCT05476939RecruitingPhase 3
BIOMEDE 2.0 trial for DIPG and similar brainstem gliomas
This phase 3 study tests targeted treatments (ONC201 or everolimus) for children with DIPG or similar diffuse midline brain tumors, based on the tumor’s genetic markers. It aims to improve outcomes by matching treatment to the tumor biology and comparing approaches in a randomized way.
AarhusAges 6 months+ - NCT06465199RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Eflornithine and AMXT 1501 for Advanced Childhood Cancers
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (eflornithine and AMXT 1501) for children and young adults with certain types of cancer that have relapsed or not responded to standard treatment, or for a specific brain tumor (DIPG) at diagnosis. The goal is to see if this drug pair is safe and effective.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 26 years - NCT04196413RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cell treatment for a specific brainstem glioma mutation
This Phase 1 study tests a custom immune therapy called GD2 CAR T cells in children and adults with a specific type of diffuse midline glioma (DMG) that has the H3K27M mutation. The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and can help control the cancer.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 2–60 - NCT04250064RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose bevacizumab with standard radiation for DIPG
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding low-dose bevacizumab (a medicine that affects blood vessel growth) to standard radiation can help children newly diagnosed with DIPG. It’s meant for certain children with a specific type of brain tumor that has not spread.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 3–18 - NCT05099003RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Selinexor plus radiation for newly diagnosed brain tumors
This trial studies whether adding selinexor to standard radiation can improve outcomes for children and young teens with certain newly diagnosed high-grade brain tumors (including DIPG). It’s designed for specific tumor types and genetic markers, and people must be able to start treatment soon after diagnosis.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–21 - NCT03101813Recruiting
Share DIPG/DMG tumor information for an international registry
This trial builds an international registry (a secure collection of patient records) for people who have been diagnosed with DIPG/DMG, including children and adults. Sharing information can help researchers better understand these tumors and plan future studies.
Cincinnati, OhioAges Any age - NCT04943848RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine plus immune treatment for newly diagnosed brain stem tumors
This early-phase trial tests a customized vaccine (made from your tumor’s cell parts) along with an immune “checkpoint blocker” medicine. It’s for newly diagnosed DIPG/DMG to see if this combination is safe and can help control the cancer.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 1–18 - NCT05096481RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine trial for children with certain brain tumors
This Phase 2 study tests a vaccine made to target CMV (a virus) in order to treat children with medulloblastoma or newly diagnosed high-grade glioma/DIPG. If you’re eligible, you’d receive the study vaccine and the team would closely watch how well it’s tolerated and how your cancer responds.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 3–39 - NCT05843253RecruitingPhase 2
Ribociclib plus everolimus or temozolomide for certain brain tumors
This Phase 2 study tests ribociclib with either everolimus or temozolomide, depending on the specific brain tumor type. It may help slow tumor growth in children and young adults whose tumor has specific genetic changes and who have had recent standard radiation therapy.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 1–39 - NCT05956821RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for young people with recurring brain glioma
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a study treatment for children and young adults under 22 whose brain glioma has come back or isn’t responding to prior treatment. It’s designed to see whether the treatment is safe and effective for shrinking tumors in this situation.
Miami, FloridaAges 1–21 - NCT06607692RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
LuPARPed: Targeted radiation plus olaparib for certain childhood cancers
This trial tests a combination of a radioactive drug (Lutathera) and a targeted pill (olaparib) for children and teens whose solid tumors have come back or not responded to treatment and show high levels of a specific receptor (SSTR) on scans. The goal is to see if this two-drug approach can shrink tumors or stop them from growing.
Boadilla del Monte, MadridAges 3 years+ - NCT03914768Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Immune Cell Vaccine for Brain Tumors
This trial tests a vaccine made from immune cells (dendritic cells) designed to train your body to fight brain tumors like DIPG or glioblastoma. You may qualify if you have one of these tumors, have had standard treatment, and are generally healthy enough for the study.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for dipg?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 16 recruiting dipg studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a dipg trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a dipg trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
