Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - ONC201
Treatment: Other - Radiation Therapy
Treatment: Drugs - Paxalisib

Experimental: NOT CURRENTLY ENROLLING - ARM 2: ONC201 (Day -1), Radiation+ONC201, Paxalisib+ONC201 - Participants may receive a safety lead in of ONC201. During the trial validation phase, participants without prior biopsy receive ONC201 PO on day -1 prior to standard of care biopsy. During the radiation/re-irradiation phase, participants without prior radiation therapy or have disease progression after radiation therapy undergo weekly radiation therapy and receive ONC201 PO weekly during radiation therapy. During the maintenance phase, participants receive ONC201 PO weekly and paxalisib PO daily (QD). Cycles repeat every 28 days (4 weeks) in the absence of adverse events of unacceptable toxicity

Experimental: NOT CURRENTLY ENROLLING - ARM 4: ONC201 (Day -1,-2), Radiation+ONC201, Paxalisib+ONC201 - Participants may receive a safety lead in of ONC201. During the trial validation phase, participants without prior biopsy receive ONC201 PO on days -2 and -1 prior to standard of care biopsy. During the radiation/re-irradiation phase, participants may receive ONC201 PO weekly during radiation therapy. During the maintenance phase, participants receive ONC201 PO weekly and paxalisib PO QD. Cycles repeat every 28 days (4 weeks) in the absence of adverse events or unacceptable toxicity

Experimental: NOT CURRENTLY ENROLLING - ARM 6: Paxalisib (Day -1), Radiation+Paxalisib , Paxalisib+ONC201 - Participants may receive a safety lead in of ONC201. During trial validation phase, participants without prior biopsy receive paxalisib PO on day -1 prior to standard of care biopsy. During the radiation/re-irradiation phase, participants without prior radiation therapy or have disease progression after radiation therapy undergo weekly radiation therapy and receive paxalisib PO daily during radiation therapy. During the maintenance phase, participants receive ONC201 PO weekly and paxalisib PO QD. Cycles repeat every 28 days (4 weeks) in the absence of adverse events of unacceptable toxicity

Experimental: Cohort 4 - Dose Escalation, Starting Dose 2 (625mg ONC201) - Participants will receive a safety lead in of 625mg ONC201. During the trial validation phase, participants without prior biopsy receive ONC201 PO on days -2 and -1 prior to standard of care biopsy. During any non-interventional radiation/re-irradiation per standard of care treatment, participants will receive 625 mg as the starting dose of ONC201 Days 1 and 2 on a weekly basis. Cycles repeat every 28 days (4 weeks) in the absence of adverse events or unacceptable toxicity

Experimental: Cohort 5 - ONC201 + Targeted therapies - Participants will receive a starting dose of 625mg of ONC201 weekly on Day 1 and 2 during any non-interventional radiation/re-irradiation per standard of care treatment, and in combination with targeted agents to be selected from approved/available agents based on a rational therapy approach guided by molecular data from the tumor tissue or cerebral spinal fluid (CSF). Each individual targeted agent will be dosed at the recommended therapeutic dose, if a dose has been issued for the participant's age group. Observations and schedule of events will be issued based on the chosen agent determined to best fit the molecular profile (e.g. BRAFV600E, PDGFRA, FGFR1, NF1).
