Rare brain tumor registry launches to unlock secrets of ETMR
NCT ID NCT04794686
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study creates a worldwide registry for children diagnosed with Embryonal Tumor with Multilayer Rosettes (ETMR), a rare and aggressive brain tumor. Researchers will collect medical records, tumor tissue, and treatment outcomes from up to 100 patients of any age. The goal is to better understand the disease and evaluate how well a standard treatment plan works.

Who can take part
This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
Who is studied
This registry will encompass a population of patients of any age with histologically confirmed primary intracranial CNS Embryonal Tumor with Multilayer Rosettes OR tumor tissue that possesses C19MC amplification. Patients may be enrolled at any point after diagnosis. In an effort to best achieve the registry's secondary objectives, it is preferable, but not required, for patients to be registered soon after their diagnosis, prior to the initiation of any tumor-directed therapy. Deceased patients may be enrolled to aid in the collection of historical data.
- Ages

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patients of any age 2. Patients must have either a histologically confirmed primary intracranial CNS Embryonal Tumor with Multilayer Rosettes (as agreed upon by central review or local pathologist OR 3. Patients must have tumor tissue that possesses C19MC amplification . Central Review is not required (but is strongly recommended) if the patient's tumor does not demonstrate C19MC amplification. 4. Patients may be enrolled at point following diagnosis
