The impact of this study, if treatment proves to be effective, will be highly significant, given the poor response of gliomas to the adjuvant treatment used so far. Pediatric gliomas are of low incidence and may be considered as "orphan" diseases, and therefore as low priority as regards funding. However, because of their unfavorable prognosis these diseases have high clinical and social repercussions, especially high grade gliomas and high risk low grade gliomas, with less mortality but a high incidence of sequelae.
