Brain Tumors

Research program aims to advance precision medicine for children and young people whose cancer has returned

Potential new therapy for childhood brain cancer is effective in infiltrating, killing tumor cells in preclinical models in mice

UCLA researchers look to create point-of-care test that can confirm diagnosis at the bedside

New research identifies a critical genetic variation in Group 3 medulloblastomas, paving the way for improved diagnostic and treatment strategies for this challenging form of pediatric brain cancer

The new rapid genotyping test for brain cancers eliminates the need for invasive biopsies, reducing time to diagnosis from 10 days to 2 days

Researchers develop fully off-the-shelf, stem cell-derived natural killer cells against glioblastoma

Researchers were able to deliver the CAR-T cells directly into the tumor site and the cerebrospinal fluid

 Learning how tumor cells adapt to treatment through nanobiopsy could aid in preventing cancer recurrence

The simple blood tests for childhood cancers are being tested in the clinical setting for the first time

Trials showed the effect of combination therapy on survival and quality of life in children with low- and high-grade gliomas
