Multicenter Register for Children and Young Adults With Intracranial Localized Medulloblastoma, CNS-PNET or Ependymoma

May 28, 2015 updated by: Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf

Multicenter Register for Children and Young Adults With Intracranial Localized Medulloblastoma, Central Nervous System (CNS)- Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumour (PNET), or Ependymoma

The Register is based on the study HIT 2000 that recruited patients until 31.12.2011. All german patients with intracranial medulloblastoma, CNS-PNET, ependymoma can be included in the register. Object of the register is to maintain the quality of diagnostic standard by using of central review (Neuroradiology, Pathology, and cranio spinal fluid (CSF) cytology).

Furthermore, the register should enable to continue the collection of epidemiologic data and biological material (tumor material, CSF, and blood) for associated studies.
