Tissue Collection for Drug Screening and Bioanalysis
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 17 Dec 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The purpose of this study is to improve upon the knowledge currently available about central nervous system (CNS) tumors. We will study the different characteristics of these tumors using tissue samples collected during surgery and post-autopsy. The aim is to create tumor cell lines and models to test how they respond to different drugs. This research will help improve treatment options and identify new targets for therapy.
