The landscape of pediatric RTK-driven gliomas

Oncogenic fusions involving receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) provide an excellent opportunity for therapeutic targeting but the clinical and molecular landscape of pediatric RTK-driven gliomas remains largely uncharted. To define clinically-relevant tumor subgroups and assess their prognostic significance, we will evaluate the correlation between molecular and clinical characteristics. This project will provide mechanistic insights into RTK-fused gliomas and enable precision medicine approaches to treat these tumors.
