    Anticipated Enrollment :
    30 participants
    Observational Model:
    Cohort
    Time Perspective:
    Prospective
    Official Title:
    Immunomodulation Analysis on Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells of Radiation Therapy in Pediatric Malignant Brain Tumors
    Actual Study Start Date :

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. The changes of peripheral blood immune cells [6 weeks (prior and post the radiation therapy )]

      The flow cytometric analysis of lymphocyte subtypes populations would be performed

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Activation status of T cells [6 weeks (prior and post the radiation therapy )]

      Activation status of peripheral IFN-γ-producing effector CD8+ T cells by Elispot.

    2. The changs of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines [6 weeks (prior and post the radiation therapy )]

      Human inflammatory cytokines and chemokines will be analyzed by ELISA during radiation therapy. The cytokines and chemokines are IL-2, IL-10, IFN-γ, TNF-α
