Molecular characterization of choroid plexus tumors

Choroid plexus tumors (CPT) are brain tumors predominantly arising in children and adolescents. CPT comprise different histologic and epigenetic subgroups with variable clinical outcome, but despite frequent copy-number alterations and some CPT harboring TP53 mutations, recurrent driver mutations are unknown. The aim of our project is to evaluate the occurrence of fusion transcripts in CPT.
