Brief Summary: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells Drugs such as motexafin gadolinium may make the tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of motexafin gadolinium plus radiation therapy in treating children who have newly diagnosed brain stem glioma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

I Determine the maximum tolerated dose MTD and schedule of motexafin gadolinium administered prior to radiotherapy in children with newly diagnosed diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma

II Determine the toxic effects of this drug given at the MTD in these patients

III Determine the intratumor and brain distribution of this drug by magnetic resonance imaging MRI in these patients

OUTLINE This is a dose-escalation study of motexafin gadolinium

Approximately 2-5 hours before radiotherapy patients receive motexafin gadolinium IV over 5 minutes Patients undergo radiotherapy 5 days a week for 6 weeks

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of motexafin gadolinium until the MTD is determined The first cohort receives motexafin gadolinium 5 days a week for 3 weeks the second cohort receives motexafin gadolinium 3 days a week for 6 weeks and subsequent cohorts receive motexafin gadolinium 5 days a week for 6 weeks The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity

Patients are followed every 3 months for up to 3 years

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A maximum of 24 patients will be accrued for this study within 2 years
