Summary

The goal of this study is to perform genetic sequencing on brain tumors from children, adolescents, and young adult patients who have been newly diagnosed with a high-grade glioma. This molecular profiling will decide if patients are eligible to participate in a subsequent treatment-based clinical trial based on the genetic alterations identified in their tumor.

Eligible Conditions
  • Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma
  • Brain Tumor
  • Anaplastic Astrocytoma
  • Diffuse Midline Glioma
  • Gliomas
  • Glioblastoma

Timeline
