Choroid plexus carcinoma
MONDO:0016718A malignant neoplasm arising from the choroid plexus. It shows anaplastic features and usually invades neighboring brain structures. Cerebrospinal fluid metastases are frequent. (Adapted from WHO)
Also known as: cancer of choroid plexus, cancer of the choroid plexus, choroid plexus cancer, malignant neoplasm of choroid plexus, malignant neoplasm of the choroid plexus, malignant tumor of choroid plexus, malignant tumour of choroid plexus, anaplastic choroid plexus papilloma

Experimental Artery-Directed chemo for rare brain tumors: tiny trial ends early
Disease control Stopped earlyThis early-phase trial tested giving chemotherapy drugs directly into the brain's arteries to treat two rare types of choroid plexus tumors. The goal was to shrink the tumor before a second surgery. Only 1 person was enrolled, and the study was terminated, so we have very little …

Spinal tap could replace brain surgery for young tumor patients
Knowledge-focused Stopped earlyThis study looked at whether a liquid biopsy—testing the fluid around the brain and spinal cord—can find tumor DNA in children and young adults with brain tumors. The goal was to see if this safer, non-surgical test could replace risky tissue biopsies for diagnosis and monitoring…

Scientists examine stored tumor samples to uncover DNA clues in Kids' brain cancers
Knowledge-focused Stopped earlyThis study looked at stored tumor samples from 139 children with brain and central nervous system tumors. Researchers wanted to find DNA changes and biomarkers that could help understand these cancers better. The study was terminated early, so results may be limited.
