Intensive physiotherapy for children with posterior fossa tumors
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests if intensive physical therapy helps children recover after surgery for a brain tumor at the back of the head. It is designed for kids and young adults up to age 25.

Who can take part
- You had surgery to remove a tumor in the back part of your brain (called the posterior fossa)

This study looks at children under 18 with a type of brain tumor at the back of the brain (posterior fossa) to understand what affects their outcomes. It will help doctors learn more about how these tumors behave and what to expect.
This study tests whether adding two medicines, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and tretinoin (ATRA), to standard treatment helps children with a type of brain tumor called ependymoma. It aims to find safe doses and see if they improve outcomes.
This study looks at “brain biomarkers,” meaning brain signals measured on MRI and thinking/learning tests on a computer. It may help researchers understand how brain tumors affect the brain and track changes over time.
This study compares two surgical methods for treating lesions at the back of the brain (posterior fossa). It aims to see which approach leads to better recovery and fewer complications.
This trial tests if a precise type of radiation called proton therapy is safe and effective for children with certain brain tumors. It aims to reduce side effects by focusing radiation only on the tumor.
