Brain tumor drug testing using live tissue samples
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
This trial uses a small piece of your brain tumor after surgery to test which drugs might work best for you. It helps doctors find the most effective treatment for your specific tumor.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a brain or central nervous system tumor that needs surgery to remove it.
- You are willing to follow the study procedures after surgery.
- You can give consent (or a parent/guardian can give consent for you).
- You are not in prison or jail.

This study collects leftover brain or spinal tumor tissue during neurosurgery (or from autopsies) so researchers can test drugs and measure how they work. It may help future treatments by improving drug screening using real patient tissue.
This study tests a new way to choose treatment for people with brain tumors that have not responded to standard therapies. Your tumor sample is analyzed in the lab to find which drugs might work best for you, and then you receive a personalized treatment plan.
This study creates 3D models from brain tumor tissue of children aged 3-18 to test how different drugs might work against their specific tumor. The goal is to find more personalized treatments.
This study collects biological samples from adults with a confirmed brain tumor. Samples may help researchers better understand brain tumors and improve future treatments.
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 trial takes a small sample of your tumor to grow a model in the lab. This model helps doctors test which treatments might work best for you.
