WNT-Activated Medulloblastoma is a type of medulloblastoma, a cancerous brain tumour that starts in the cerebellum, the area of the brain that controls balance and coordination. It is most often diagnosed in older children and teenagers, although it can occur at any age.
This subtype is linked to changes in the WNT signaling pathway, which helps regulate normal cell growth. Among all medulloblastoma subtypes, WNT-Activated Medulloblastoma has the most favourable outcome.
Many sufferers of WNT-Activated Medulloblastoma struggle because they feel that their disease doesn’t have the same level of awareness as more common cancers. Without a Ribbon is an Australian non-profit organisation that believes that rare cancers should never go unnoticed. We aim to provide a detailed set of resources and information for anyone suffering from cancers such as WNT-Activated Medulloblastoma. We have recently created an WNT-Activated Medulloblastoma resource page to help sufferers understand their disease. It covers the symptoms, available treatments and other important information.
We hope that this resource page will help you or a friend/family member to learn about their illness and aid them through their battle with the disease.
