This trial looked at adding etoposide to the standard chemotherapy treatment for children and young people with a type of brain tumour called low grade glioma.
It was for children and young people, up to the age of 16, who had a low grade tumour. A low grade tumour means that it usually grows very slowly.
Cancer Research UK supported this trial.
