NCT ID NCT03296371

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study explores genetic mutations in children with embryonal or alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma by analyzing saliva or cheek cell samples from the child and their parents. The goal is to identify inherited or new gene changes that may help doctors predict how the disease will progress. About 900 participants and their parents are involved, but this research does not test any new treatments.
