NCT ID NCT07242963

First seen Nov 21, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 27 times

Summary

This study creates a biobank for children and adults with a relapsed or hard-to-treat type of brain tumor called sonic hedgehog medulloblastoma that has a specific genetic change (U1 mutation). Researchers will collect medical records, tumor samples, and optional cheek swabs from participants and their parents to better understand the disease. The goal is to learn more about the U1 mutation to help design more effective therapies in the future. Participants will not receive direct treatment from this study.
