Program Overview
The aim of this study is to determine the safest and most effective dose of eribulin when used with irinotecan and temozolomide in children with solid tumors that have come back or are not responding to treatment. Researchers will also monitor how well the tumors respond to this combination of drugs and if it helps relieve symptoms.
Description
This study is focused on finding the right dose of eribulin when combined with irinotecan and temozolomide for children with solid tumors that are difficult to treat. The primary goal is to identify the maximum dose that can be safely given without causing severe side effects. Researchers will also observe how the tumors respond to this treatment and if it provides any symptom relief.
The study will monitor the overall response of the tumors, including how long the response lasts and the time patients remain free from disease progression. Although the benefits of this drug combination are not yet established, the study aims to offer a potential treatment option for these patients.
