Scientists search for genetic clues in childhood muscle cancer
NCT ID NCT03296371
Summary
This study aims to understand the genetic factors that might contribute to two types of childhood muscle cancer, called rhabdomyosarcoma. Researchers are collecting saliva samples from children diagnosed with this cancer and both of their parents to look for inherited genetic changes. The goal is to learn more about what causes this disease and potentially help with future diagnosis and care.
