First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 13, 2026 · Updated 31 times

Summary

This study aims to collect and store extra blood, tissue, urine, and tumor samples from children and adults diagnosed with childhood cancers like leukemia, sarcoma, and neuroblastoma. The samples are taken only when already needed for medical care, so no extra procedures are required. Researchers will use these samples to perform detailed molecular and genetic analyses to better understand these cancers. The goal is to create a long-term resource for future studies, not to provide direct treatment to participants.
