My 3 yr old grandson has Pilomyxoid Astrocytoma. Is there any talk on clinical trials on this yet? Can this transform to a higher grade?

Last year, my daughter (7years old at the time) had a ganglioglioma tumor removed. It was all removed and has showed no sign of regrowth. Physically, she is very well (besides the occasional migraine)... But emotionally, she is all over. I struggle with knowing if Is it common to be stressed and frustrated... Is this a tumor/surgery thing... Or just a "normal kid" issue.
