简要总结
The aim of the study is to examine the safety and feasibility of using 5-ALA in children who have MRI scans showing an aggressive looking brain tumour. It will also study if 5-ALA can help the surgeon achieve maximal tumour removal and discriminate between normal brain tissue and tumour.
Patients will be between 3-18 years (inclusive) and all patients will receive 5-ALA 3-6 hours prior to resection surgery.

入选标准
- •Magnetic Resonance Imaging confirmation of diagnosis consistent with either: primary presentation of high grade brain tumour OR patient relapsing with previously confirmed ependymoma or high-grade glial tumour
- •Tumours will be either intrinsic supratentorial or infratentorial / posterior fossa, non-brainstem, tumours
- •Patient is appropriate for maximal safe resection of tumour, based on Investigator and Multidisciplinary Team judgement
- •3 - 18 years inclusive
- •Adequate liver and kidney function
- •creatinine - less than one and a half times the upper limit of normal.
- •haemoglobin above the lower limit of normal
- •Alanine transferase or Aspartate transferase less than twice the upper limit of normal (if both performed, then both results must be lower than twice the upper limit of normal
- •bilirubin lower than one and a half times the upper limit of normal
- •Normal Coagulation profile
- •o Prothombin Time, Activated Partial Prothombin Time and Thrombin Time all within normal limits
- •Urine porphyrin - Test to be completed and sent for analysis
- •Blood pressure lower than or equal to the upper limit of normal
- •Negative pregnancy test in women of childbearing potential*
- •Informed Consent *A positive pregnancy test that is suspected to be due to the location of the tumour is to be queried with the TMG prior to registration of the patient
排除标准
- •Patients with low grade tumours (either radiological or histological diagnosis)
- •Patient is appropriate for biopsy only, based on Investigator and MDT judgement
- •Known history (including family history) of porphyria
- •Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to porphyrins
- •History of light sensitivity reactions
- •Pregnant or breastfeeding women
