Brief summary (registry, in English)

Primary malignant central nervous system (CNS) tumors are the second most common childhood malignancies. Amongst, medulloblastomas are the most common malignant brain tumor of childhood and occur primarily in the cerebellum. According to molecular characteristics, medulloblastomas were classified into four subtypes: WNT, SHH, Group3 and Group4 and different prognosis were noticed between subgroups. Several genetic predispositions related to clinical outcome were also discovered and might influence the treatment of medulloblastomas as novel pharmaceutical targets. This study aims to investigate genetic and cellular profiles of pediatric brain malignancies, mostly medulloblastomas, and other central nervous system tumor based on WGS, RNA-seq, single-cell sequencing and spatial transcriptomics. We also aim to investigate the correlation between genetic characteristics and clinical prognosis.

  • 1 site in 1 country
  • Visits and tests: ask the trial team, the registry does not list them

Built from the registry fields of ClinicalTrials.gov. It describes the study, not your situation.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • Patients with major systemic illness (e.g., serious infection or significant cardiac, pulmonary, hepatic, or other organ dysfunction) which might compromise the patient's ability to tolerate standard treatment or would likely interfere with overall prognosis;

Lab values

  • Quality of tumor tissue sample did not meet the criterion for genetic sequencing and laboratory investigations;

Other

  • \- Patients with major perioperative complications which lead to significant and sudden deterioration;
  • Patients with major adverse events or sudden deterioration irrelevant to the current study;
  • Patients who refuse to participate in the study or who request dropping out from the study

Who the study is looking for

  • \- Children and adolescents aged between 0-18 years old, diagnosed with medulloblastoma or other malignant central nervous system tumors including glioma, ependymoma, germ cell tumors,tuberous sclerosis, neuronal and neuronoglial tumors, choroid plexus tumors, atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumors, ependymoblastoma, and medulloepithelioma;
  • Patients must be eligible for and receive tumor resection;
  • Histological examination by institutional neuro-pathological evaluation must confirmed the diagnosis of brain malignancies;
  • Participants consent with joining the current study and comply with follow-up visits;
  • The patients must have no previous radiotherapy or chemotherapy other than corticosteroids.

Age in the registry: 0 years to 18 years · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
