Scientists hunt genetic clues in childhood cancer relapse

NCT ID NCT02868268

Summary

This study aims to understand why neuroblastoma, a serious childhood cancer, comes back after treatment. Researchers will analyze tumor samples from children and young adults whose cancer has returned or hasn't responded to therapy. They're looking for specific genetic markers that could help match future patients to more targeted treatments.
