Study of skull base tumors using tumor tissue
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Cancer clinical trials.
This study aims to learn more about skull base tumors by examining tumor tissue from surgery. It may help doctors better understand these tumors and improve future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with a skull base tumor (a tumor in the area at the base of the skull).
- You are having tumor tissue removed during surgery.
- You must have enough tumor tissue available at the time of surgery for the study.
- You will be asked for the specific tumor sample to be used for analysis.

This study looks at how doctors manage tumors that start in the nose/sinuses and spread to the skull base. It may help improve planning of care for people with this specific type and location of tumor.
This study looks at how well a type of keyhole surgery through the nose works for removing tumors at the base of the skull. It aims to see how much of the tumor can be removed and how patients recover.
This is an observational study that collects and compares information from patients with primary brain tumors and their treatment results. It uses stored tumor tissue and brain scans to better understand outcomes using updated tumor classification methods.
This study uses tumor tissue taken from people with head and neck cancer, then grows it in a lab to better understand the cancer and predict responses. If you have a new or returning cancer and can share key medical details and follow-up information, you may be able to take part.
This study looks at tissue samples from bone and soft tissue tumors to learn more about their molecular features and improve diagnosis and treatment. It may help researchers find better ways to manage these conditions.
This study is for people (children or adults) who are planning brain surgery to remove tumor tissue. It may help researchers learn about care for brain tumors and how outcomes can be improved.
