Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
This study will not interfere with the patients routine treatment pathway and there will be no deviation from the standard of care: the molecular characterization of the tissues will be performed according to the standard diagnostic routine using the currently approved methodologies. For the retrospective study, it will be used the left-over DNA. For the cohort, that includes the collection and the subsequent analysis of liquid biopsies (prospective study), blood and CSF will be sampled during surgery.
The mutations in the molecular markers will be analyzed in tissue as well as in plasma and CFS samples by the new real-time based assays. Then, the qualitative and quantitative values obtained on liquid biopsies with the new methodology will be compared to the results of the standard methodologies already obtained, for diagnostic routine, on surgical tissue samples of the same patients.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Retrospective
The cases with glioma will be identified in the databases of hospital, the material will be preliminarily evaluated in order to see if there is sufficient tissue left for analysis.
validation of new technologies
Development of a new molecular assay on tissue as well as on liquid biopsies (plasma and CSF), based on a single, open, real-time PCR platform with unprecedented sensitivity
Prospective
A blood sample for molecular analyses will be collected in all the cases, CSF samples will be taken only if recommended by the normal surgical routine.
