Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors

Research

Specialists at Mayo Clinic are among the nation's leading cancer researchers and develop protocols that become standard procedures. To provide the most appropriate treatment for malignant peripheral nerve tumors (MPNSTs), Mayo Clinic participates in national clinical trials of new treatment approaches, such as:

• Combinations of different types of chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery
• Nerve surgery
• The mechanisms of MPNSTs
• Nerve regeneration and grafting
