Study Synopsis:

This tissue and blood banking trial was launched in 2013 with the focus to further personalize medicine for children with cancer. PedsTCC has always aimed to be a foundation from which clinicians could answer specific questions related to their patient’s cancer through the use of molecular testing. These test results can have a significant impact on the patient’s choice of therapy. Indeed rigorous studies of rare cancer and a rare patient have launched from this foundation across institutions bringing national experts to an individual’s care.
