Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Cisplatin

Other interventions - Laboratory Biomarker Analysis
Treatment: Drugs - Lomustine
Treatment: Surgery - Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Treatment: Other - Radiation Therapy
Treatment: Drugs - Vincristine
Treatment: Drugs - Vincristine Sulfate
Experimental: Treatment (reduced radiation therapy and chemotherapy) - RADIATION THERAPY: Beginning 4-5 weeks after surgery, patients undergo craniospinal radiation therapy 5 days a week for 6 weeks.
MAINTENANCE THERAPY (WEEKS 1, 3, 5, and 7): Beginning 4-6 weeks after completion of radiation therapy patients receive lomustine PO on day 1, vincristine sulfate IV over 1 minute or via minibag on days 1, 8, and 15, and cisplatin IV over 6 hours on day 1. Treatment repeats every 42 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
MAINTENANCE THERAPY (WEEKS 2, 4, AND 6): Patients receive cyclophosphamide IV over 30-60 minutes on days 1 and 2, mesna IV over 15-30 minutes on days 1 and 2, and vincristine sulfate IV over 1 minute or via minibag on days 1 and 8. Treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Patients also undergo MRI throughout the trial.

Results will be compared to the results of the molecular screening tests.

Change in neurocognitive function (cognitive, social, emotional and behavioral) according to Children Oncology Group Standard Neuropsychological Battery

Assessment method [2]
0
0
Neurocognitive function will be measured at 9, 30 and 60 months post diagnosis and will be compared with the neurocognitive outcomes from an age and gender matched ACNS0331 cohort to the WNT patients treated on ACNS1422. Data for all assessments will be available as standardized t-scores. The change over time for each component of the neuropsychological testing will be estimated using the Generalized Estimating Equation (GEE) approach, with the standardized t-scores as the dependent variable and the assessment times as a covariate. Within the ACNS1422 cohort GEE models will also be used to explore associations of changes over time with factors such as gender, age at initiation of radiation therapy, tumor location, number of surgical interventions, etc.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Patients must be greater than or equal to 3 years and less than 22 years of age at the time of enrollment
* Patients must be newly diagnosed and have:
* Eligibility confirmed by rapid central pathology and molecular screening review on APEC14B1:
* Classical histologic type (non LC/A) WNT medulloblastoma
* Positive nuclear beta-catenin by immunohistochemistry (IHC)
* Positive for CTNNB1 mutation by Sanger sequencing
* Negative for MYC and MYCN by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)
* Patient must have negative lumbar cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cytology
* Note: CSF cytology for staging should be performed no sooner than 14 days post operatively to avoid false positive CSF; ideally, CSF should be obtained between day 14 and day 21 to allow for final staging status before enrollment onto the study; patients with positive CSF cytology obtained 0 to 14 days after surgery should have cytology repeated to determine eligibility and final CSF status; patients with negative CSF cytology from lumbar puncture obtained 0 to 14 days after surgery do not need cytology repeated; patients with negative CSF cytology from lumbar puncture obtained prior to surgery do not need cytology repeated post-operatively
* Patients must have eligibility confirmed by Rapid Central Imaging Review on APEC14B1; patients must have =< 1.5 cm^2 maximal cross-sectional area of residual tumor; whole brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with and without gadolinium and spine MRI with gadolinium must be performed
* Patients must be enrolled, and protocol therapy must be projected to begin, no later than 36 days after definitive diagnostic surgery (day 0)
* Peripheral absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1000/uL
* Platelet count >= 100,000/uL (transfusion independent)
* Hemoglobin >= 8.0 g/dL (may receive red blood cell [RBC] transfusions)
* Creatinine clearance or radioisotope glomerular filtration rate (GFR) >= 70 mL/min/1.73 m^2 or a serum creatinine based on age/gender as follows:
* 3 to < 6 years of age: maximum (max) serum creatinine 0.8 mg/dL (males and females)
* 6 to < 10 years of age: max serum creatinine 1 mg/dL (males and females)
* 10 to < 13 years of age: max serum creatinine 1.2 mg/dL (males and females)
* 13 to < 16 years of age: max serum creatinine 1.5 md/dL (males) and 1.4 md/dL (females)
* >= 16 years of age: max serum creatinine 1.7 mg/dL (males) and 1.4 mg/dL (females)
* The threshold creatinine values were derived from the Schwartz formula for estimating GFR utilizing child length and stature data published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
* Total or direct bilirubin =< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age, and
* Serum glutamate pyruvate (SGPT) (alanine aminotransferase [ALT]) =< 135 U/L (3x ULN); for the purpose of this study, the ULN for SGPT is 45 U/L
* Central nervous system function defined as:
* Patients with seizure disorder may be enrolled if on anticonvulsants and well controlled
* Patients must not be in status epilepticus, a coma or on assisted ventilation at the time of study enrollment
* Patients must have receptive and expressive language skills in English, French, or Spanish to complete the QoL and neurocognitive assessments; if a patient meets these criteria but the parent/guardian speaks a language other than English, French, or Spanish, the patient may still be enrolled and tested, and the parent-report measures should be omitted
* All patients and/or their parents or legal guardians must sign a written informed consent; assent, when appropriate, will be obtained according to institutional guidelines

Summary
Brief summary
This phase II trial studies how well reduced doses of radiation therapy to the brain and spine (craniospinal) and chemotherapy work in treating patients with newly diagnosed type of brain tumor called WNT)/Wingless (WNT)-driven medulloblastoma. Recent studies using chemotherapy and radiation therapy have been shown to be effective in treating patients with WNT-driven medulloblastoma. However, there is a concern about the late side effects of treatment, such as learning difficulties, lower amounts of hormones, or other problems in performing daily activities. Radiotherapy uses high-energy radiation from x-rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, vincristine sulfate, cyclophosphamide and lomustine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving reduced craniospinal radiation therapy and chemotherapy may kill tumor cells and may also reduce the late side effects of treatment.
