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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had surgery to remove a tumor in the back part of your brain (called the posterior fossa)
- You are between 0 and 25 years old
- You are not currently using special technology devices for your rehab

This study looks at children with tumors in the back part of the brain (the posterior fossa) to understand what affects their recovery after surgery. It may help doctors better predict outcomes for similar cases.
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 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.
This trial tests if metformin can help treat a certain type of brain tumor called PFA ependymoma that has come back after surgery and radiation. It's for people ages 1 to 39 who are healthy enough for surgery or have tumors that can be measured on scans.
This study tests whether a supervised physical therapy program can help children and teens aged 3–16 who have finished cancer treatment and are in remission. The goal is to improve their physical function and recovery.
This study tests if a special computer training program, which uses brain activity (neurofeedback) and thinking exercises, can help children who survived a brain tumor improve their attention and memory. If your child struggles with focus or planning after treatment, this may offer extra support.
