Brief Summary

This clinical trial studies dynamic susceptibility-weighted contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DSC-MRI) after administration of ferumoxytol and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) after...

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To describe the vascular properties of pediatric brain tumors using ferumoxytol for DSC-MRI and GBCA for DCE-MRI in pediatric brain tumor (proven or presumptive) patients in a ...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Participant must have either radiological (presumptive) or established (proven) histological diagnosis of a brain tumor or lesion
  • Previously untreated participants must have a measureable lesion on an imaging study
  • Participants undergoing active treatment, or who have completed treatment, will have radiographic abnormalities that may or may not be recurrent tumor
  • Those participants requiring surgical intervention for diagnostic and/or therapeutic purposes as necessary for their disease are eligible; the tissue may be assessed by histology and/or EM for iron particles; only clinically indicated biopsy and/or surgery will be done
  • Participants may have had prior therapy for the primary brain tumor, including surgery, radiotherapy or chemotherapy
  • After entry into the study, participants agree to be followed for up to 6 weeks after the final infusion of ferumoxytol
  • All participants, or their legal guardians, must sign a written informed consent and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) authorization in accordance with institutional guidelines
  • Baseline MRI studies for participants receiving ferumoxytol must be performed within 16 weeks of study entry
  • Sexually active women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study treatment and for the duration of study treatment; should a female become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately

Exclusion

  • Participants with clinically significant signs of uncal herniation, such as acute pupillary enlargement, rapidly developing motor changes (over hours), or rapidly decreasing level of consciousness, are not eligible
  • Participants with known allergic or hypersensitivity reactions to parenteral iron, parenteral dextran, parenteral iron-dextran, or parenteral iron-polysaccharide preparations, are not eligible; participants with significant drug or other allergies or autoimmune diseases may be enrolled at the Investigator's discretion
  • Participants who are pregnant, lactating, or who suspect they might be pregnant are not eligible
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and/or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) greater than 2.5 x upper limits of normal
  • Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) \< 50
  • Participants who have a contraindication for MRI: metal in their bodies (a cardiac pacemaker or other incompatible device), are severely agitated, or have an allergy to GBCA
  • Participants with known hepatic insufficiency or cirrhosis
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive participants on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible
  • Participants that have a known or suspected iron overload (genetic hemochromatosis or history of multiple transfusions)
