Personalised targeted therapy for adolescent and young adult medulloblastoma patients

Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumour of childhood but can also occur in older adolescents and young adults (AYA).

This trial will give these patients access to state-of-the-art tumour profiling and targeted therapies in order to ensure optimal treatments to both improve cure rates, reduce therapy-related toxicities.
