Study of Tumor Samples From Patients With Ependymoma Treated on the Children's Oncology Group ACNS0121 Trial

Completed

Conditions studied: Childhood Infratentorial Ependymoma, Childhood Supratentorial Ependymoma, Newly Diagnosed Childhood Ependymoma

In brief

This research trial studies tumor samples from patients with ependymoma treated on the Children Oncology Group ACNS0121 trial. Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors find better ways to treat cancer.
