This trial tests a new immune therapy using your child's own specially trained white blood cells to fight brain tumors. The treatment is given directly into the fluid around the brain, and it is for children with specific types of brain cancer.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 1–30 - NCT06942039RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study of two drugs for young children with aggressive brain tumors
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy drugs (topotecan given into the spine plus maintenance chemo) for children under 6 with high-risk embryonal brain tumors. The goal is to see if this approach can improve outcomes after initial treatment.
Calgary, AlbertaAges Up to 6 years - NCT07087002RecruitingPhase 1
GPC2-CAR T cells for children and young adults with relapsed medulloblastoma
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy called GPC2-CAR T cells for children and young adults whose medulloblastoma or related brain tumor has come back or not responded to standard treatment. The goal is to see if these specially designed immune cells can find and attack the tumor.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 1–30 - NCT06861244RecruitingPhase 2
ETMR brain tumor trial for children
This trial is for children with a rare brain tumor (ETMR) who have not had radiation. Depending on how much tumor is left after surgery and if it has spread, the study compares giving radiation early versus high-dose chemotherapy.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT04794686Recruiting
Study for children with a brain tumor with multilayer rosettes
This registry research program collects information and tumor samples from people with a specific type of brain embryonal tumor (with multilayer rosettes). It may help researchers understand the tumor better and improve future treatments.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges Any age - NCT03067181RecruitingPhase 3
Active surveillance and chemotherapy for germ cell tumors
This study looks at how to manage germ cell tumors in children and young adults using careful monitoring for some patients and chemotherapy for others. It aims to see whether these approaches can control the cancer while avoiding unnecessary treatment when possible.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - 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 - NCT05711992Recruiting
Registry for rare brain embryonal tumors in children and teens
This study is an international registry (a way to collect medical information) for people with certain rare brain tumors, diagnosed since 2010. It helps researchers understand these tumors better, which can guide future treatments.
YerevanAges 1 day–25 years - NCT05259605Recruiting
Study uses brain tumor tissue and scans to track treatment outcomes
This is an observational study that collects and compares information from patients with primary brain tumors and their treatment results. It uses stored tumor tissue and brain scans to better understand outcomes using updated tumor classification methods.
InnsbruckAges 18 years+ - NCT05564026Recruiting
Study of DNA patterns in childhood germ cell tumors
This study looks at “molecular” (DNA-related) features of germ cell tumors in children and teens. It also follows patients over time, which can help researchers understand tumor patterns and improve future care.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Any age - NCT05293197RecruitingPhase 1
Safety study of repeated blood-brain barrier opening for pediatric brain tumors
This Phase 1 study tests whether a device can safely and repeatedly open the blood-brain barrier (a protective shield in the brain) in children with malignant brain tumors. It aims to help the tumor treatment work better while watching for safety issues.
ParisAges 5–17 - NCT04099797RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T therapy for certain GD2 brain tumors
This Phase 1 study tests CAR T cells designed to target a marker called GD2 on brain tumors. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and whether it can shrink or control these tumors in children and young adults.
Houston, TexasAges 1–25 - NCT07148050RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T-cell therapy for children with solid tumors
This trial tests a new kind of immunotherapy for children and teens with solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The therapy uses specially engineered T cells (CAR T cells) that target a protein called GPC3 found on many tumor cells, and it includes extra signals (IL-15 and IL-21) to help the T cells work better.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 1–26 - NCT05298995RecruitingPhase 1
GD2 CAR T-cell treatment for pediatric brain tumors
This trial tests a special immune-cell therapy (GD2 CAR T cells) made for pediatric brain tumor patients. It uses a planned treatment plan and monitoring to see if the therapy is safe and can work against the tumor.
Roma, ItalyAges 6 months–30 years - NCT05278208RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Lutathera for high-grade brain tumors that returned or got worse
This trial tests if Lutathera, a radioactive drug that targets certain tumors, can help children and young adults with high-grade brain tumors or meningiomas that have come back or are growing. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and works.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 4–39 - NCT07424092RecruitingPhase 2
Virus injection for children with recurrent brain tumors
This trial is testing a virus called DNX-2401, which is injected directly into the tumor, for children and young adults with high-grade brain tumors that have come back or are hard to treat. The goal is to see if this virus can shrink or control the tumor.
UtrechtAges 1–25 - NCT06198296RecruitingPhase 1
Armored CAR T cells for GPC3-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a new type of immunotherapy called CAR T cells that are trained to find and attack cancer cells with a specific marker (GPC3). The CAR T cells are also 'armored' with extra proteins (IL-15 and IL-21) to help them work better. It might be an option for adults with advanced solid tumors, especially liver cancer, that have not responded to standard treatments.
Houston, TexasAges Up to 21 years - NCT07172958RecruitingPhase 1
Immune cell therapy for children with certain solid tumors
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy called CAR T cells that are designed to recognize and attack cancer cells in children and young adults with certain solid tumors that have come back or not responded to standard treatment.

New treatment study for children and young adults with NGGCT brain tumors
This Phase 2 study tests a new treatment approach for certain brain tumors called NGGCT in children and young adults. It may help improve outcomes by targeting tumors in specific brain locations and using tumor marker tests to guide care.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for embryonal tumor?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 23 recruiting embryonal tumor 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 embryonal tumor 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 embryonal tumor 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.
