Grade 3 Meningioma Survivor Story | Nick Stump | Ivy Brain Tumor Center
Nick was diagnosed with a Grade 3 meningioma, a rare tumor that forms on the membranes covering the brain and spinal cord.
By performing a genetic analysis of Nick's tumor tissue, researchers at the Ivy Center were able to identify a new experimental drug therapy matched specifically to the individual biologies of his tumor.
Two years later, his aggressive meningioma is still undetectable. Hear from Nick to learn more about his story.

The Ivy Brain Tumor Center (https://www.ivybraintumorcenter.org/) at Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix, AZ, is a non-profit translational research program that employs a bold, early-phase clinical trials strategy to identify new treatments for aggressive brain tumors, including glioblastoma. The Ivy Centerโs Phase 0 clinical trials program is the largest of its kind in the world. It enables personalized care in a fraction of the time and cost associated with traditional drug development. In addition, unlike conventional clinical trials focusing on single drugs, its accelerated trials program tests therapeutic combinations matched to individual patients.
