Spinal cord glioma surgery results study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
This study is collecting information from patients with spinal cord glioma who are having surgery through a specific surgical approach (dorsolateral sulcus). It aims to learn how well the surgery works and what the recovery looks like over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 3 and 75 years old.
- You are scheduled for surgery to remove a spinal cord tumor, and the tumor is confirmed to be a glioma (a type of brain or spinal cord tumor).
- You are willing to come back for follow-up visits and share your medical records.
- You have not had radiation, chemotherapy, or other cancer treatments in the past month.
- You have not had immunotherapy in the past 3 months.
- You are not currently in another clinical trial, are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and have no major uncontrolled health issues.

This study follows patients who have cancer that has spread to their spine and are having surgery to relieve paralysis. Researchers will track how well patients recover nerve function after surgery and identify factors that help or hinder recovery.
This trial compares surgery to the best non-surgical treatment for people whose glioblastoma has come back. The goal is to see which approach helps people live longer with a better quality of life.
This early-stage study measures electrical brain activity during brain tumor surgery to see if it can predict tumor return or progression. You may be offered the additional measurements while your surgeon removes a suspected or known high-grade glioma.
This study collects data from people having brain or spine surgery for many different conditions. It aims to understand how well different treatments work and how people recover. If you are scheduled for certain brain, spine, or nerve surgeries, you may be able to join.
This trial studies whether operating on a brain tumor that has returned can help people with recurrent glioblastoma. It focuses on people whose scans suggest surgery is safe for important speech and movement brain areas.
This study compares receiving palliative care (supportive treatments) versus surgery (removing the tumor) for people with a high-grade glioma, a fast-growing brain tumor. The goal is to find out which approach improves quality of life and survival.
