简要总结

RATIONALE: Donepezil may decrease the side effects caused by radiation therapy to the brain.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well donepezil works in treating young patients with primary brain tumors previously treated with radiation therapy to the brain.

详细描述

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the impact of donepezil hydrochloride on cognitive function in pediatric patients with primary brain tumors previously treated with cranial radiotherapy.

Secondary

  • Assess health-related quality of life of patients treated with this drug.
  • Assess function and quality of life of the families of patients treated with this drug.
  • Determine the physiologic effects of radiotherapy on cerebrovascular hemodynamics in patients treated with this drug.
  • Determine the toxicity of donepezil hydrochloride in these patients.
