Summary
This study creates a worldwide database for people with malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST), a rare cancer often linked to the genetic condition neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Researchers will collect medical records, tumor samples, and imaging data from over 1,000 participants to find patterns that may improve diagnosis and treatment. The goal is to better understand the disease, not to test a new therapy.
