Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to improve upon the knowledge currently available about pediatric central nervous system (CNS) tumors by further examining tissue, blood, and saliva samples from consenting patients. Parents of patients with CNS tumor may also be asked to provide saliva samples for analysis.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

    Detailed Description

    The goal of this project is to enable the acquisition of tissue available for research with the prospect of enabling the development of new therapeutic avenues for patients diagnosed with cancer in the central nervous system.

    During the patient's routine operative procedure, if extra tissue deemed unnecessary for diagnostic or clinical purposes is available, selected samples will undergo DNA and/or RNA extraction and integrity analysis, whole genome and RNA sequencing, DNA and RNA methylome analyses, proteomic analysis, immunoprofiling, and primary culturing of the tumor cells. These cultures will then be used for drug screenings and to create patient-derived xenografts.
