4 in progress, 3 open to eligible people
Teratomas are tumors that can include various tissues like skin or muscle. UCSF is exploring a new treatment for brain tumors in children that involves chemotherapy and radiation. Another study examines how active surveillance can help in managing germ cell tumors. UCSF also collects health data from young patients with cancer.
