Summary

Patients ≥ 3 years of age with newly-diagnosed, diffuse, intrinsic pontine glioma will be enrolled in this study. However, the primary objectives of this study are to 1) compare overall survival, the time from randomization to death from any cause, for study subjects 3-21 years of age with newly-diagnosed, diffuse, intrinsic pontine glioma who receive Antineoplaston therapy (Atengenal + Astugenal) + radiation therapy vs. radiation therapy alone and 2) describe the toxicity profile (all subjects) for Antineoplaston therapy + radiation therapy vs. radiation therapy alone.

A secondary objective is to compare progression-free survival for study subjects 3-21 years of age with newly-diagnosed, diffuse, intrinsic pontine glioma treated with Antineoplaston therapy + radiation therapy vs. radiation therapy alone.
