About this trial

The objective of the International Rare Brain Tumor Registry (IRBTR) is to better understand rare brain tumors through the collection of biospecimens and matched clinical data of children, adolescents, and young adult patients diagnosed with rare brain tumors.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients with a known or suspected CNS Sarcoma.

Patients with a known or suspected BCOR-altered brain tumor

Patients with a known or suspected Astroblastoma/NM-1 altered brain tumor

Patients with known or suspected histologically ambiguous/unclassifiable brain tumor

Disqualifiers

The patient has an extra-CNS primary tumor.

The patient is older than 46 years of age at diagnosis.

The patient or family is not willing to participate or does not sign informed consent.

Trial population

The study population will include patients who have completed the informed consent process and are \<= to 45 years of age at diagnosis of the following: CNS Sarcoma, BCOR-altered tumor, Astroblastoma/MNI-1 altered tumors, histologically ambiguous/unclassifiable brain tumor, rare brain tumor. Patients from anywhere in the world are eligible for enrollment.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Event-free Survival

The primary outcome measure will be time from diagnosis to an event, defined as the occurrence of progression or recurrence of the disease, occurrence of a second malignant neoplasm, or death from any cause. Each cohort will be analyzed separately.

Time frame
10 years

Secondary outcomes

1

Molecular characterization

To determine molecular characteristics of each cohort using somatic and germline SNV calling, methylation profiling, fusion calling and gene expression profiling. Molecular findings will be correlated with clinical characteristics to identify risk factors and subgroup-specific therapeutic susceptibilities.

Time frame
10 years
2

Radiological characterization

To analyze conventional and advanced imaging findings (including diffusion weighted imaging) of each cohort and correlate them with clinical, histopathology and molecular data (radiogenomics).

Time frame
10 years
