Official Title: Identification of Genes Involved in the Pathogenesis of Gliomas by Transcriptome Analysis
Brief Summary:
RATIONALE: Studying the genes expressed in samples of tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment.
PURPOSE: This research study is looking at tissue samples from patients with glioma or other brain tumors.
