H3K27M diffuse midline glioma

Hello everyone!

My wife (30 years old) was diagnosed diffuse midline glioma (H3K27M).

The story so far:
27/10/2018 MRI, evidence of brain tumour in brainstem.
11/11/2018 stereotaxic biopsy. According to the results of histological examination: diffuse midline glioma WHO IV H3K27M. H3K27M immunostain is strongly positive.
27/11/2018 MRI, tumour increased as well as brain swelling after biopsy.
03/12/2018 - 06/12/2018: chemotherapy course. Temozolomide (280mg) + Carboplatin injection (300mg).
12/12/2018 VP shunt placement.
29/12/2018 chemotherapy course. Temozolomide (250mg) + Bevacizumab injection (400mg).
09/01/2019 MRI, short decrease of tumour size.
10/01/2019 chemotherapy course. Bevazicumab injection (400mg)
25/01/2019 chemotherapy course. Bevacizumab injection (400mg)
08/02/2019 chemotherapy course. Temozolomide (100mg) + Bevacizumab injection (400mg).
22/02/2019 chemotherapy course. Bevacizumab injection (400mg).
27/02/2019 end of radiotherapy treatment. Truebeam, 31 session, 55,8gr.
07/03/2019 chemotherapy course. Bevacizumab injection (400mg).

Also we made Foundation One Cdx genome analysis. In the accordance with the results:
Microsatellite status - MS stable
Tumor Mutational Burden - TM-Low (5 Must/Mub).
Gene alterations:
CD274 (PD-L1) amplification - equivocal
FGFR1 - N546K
NF1 - Q1993
PDCD1LG2 amplification - equivocal
H3F3A - K28M
JAK2 amplification - equivocal

We have ended radiotherapy about three weeks ago and we must decide what to do next. Our chemotherapist in Moscow suggests to continue taking Bevacizumab every two weeks with no additional treatment.
We are planning to do MRI next week (22.03.2019).

1) Will the immonotherapy be effective in our case? We have contacted IOZK and Verita Life clinics in Germany. There is also an option of immunotherapy in Moscow.

2) Are there any promising ways (clinical trials for example) of treatment of H3K27M?

3) My wife took dexamethasone (8mg daily) for 3,5 months. We quit dexamethasone for three weeks now. Now she has moon face and big belly. When does usually these symptoms go away?

Thank you so much and best wishes to everyone,
Alexander
