Summary

The purpose of this research study is to learn about the safety and feasibility of giving a personalized DNA vaccine to people with central nervous system tumors that have returned or have been resistant to treatment.

Conditions

  • Pediatric Recurrent Central Nervous System Tumors

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Personalized neoantigen DNA vaccine

At each vaccination time point, patients will receive one injection of the neoantigen DNA vaccine, one injection into the vastus lateralis.

DEVICE

Papivax Biotech TDS-IM v2.0

All study injections will be given intramuscularly using an integrated electroporation device (TDS-IM v2.0 device - Papivax Biotech).

PROCEDURE

Peripheral blood draw

-After trial enrollment and up to 7 days after the first vaccine dose (baseline); no more than 2 weeks after the 3rd vaccine dose; no more than 2 weeks after the 6th vaccine dose; two weeks after the last dose; time of progression or discontinuation (optional)
