\<Duration of Research Participation\> Registration period for research subjects: 2022-08-01 - 2027-12-31 Duration of medical records to be utilized: to 2030-12-31 Total projected duration of research: IRB approved to 2032-12-31 Interim assessment of data quality and integrity: 6 Mo after Data collection Evaluation for the Adaptation of Protocols: 1 and 2 years after the initiation of the study Analysis of Quality of Life and other questionnaires: 3 and 5 years Interim Analysis of all data: 5 years (2027) Final analysis of treatment outcome: 2032
- Detailed Description
\<Selection standards\>
* A patient who was diagnosed with CNS GCT and agreed to participate in the research between 2022-2027.
* Patients diagnosed between 2016-2022 can be enrolled if the participating institute has IRB approval for recruiting these patients as separate IRB document (Seoul Asan Hospital) or by comprehensive IRB document (Singapore NCC, Taiwan Medical University), or by recruitment on the basis of acquirement of the consent form for research (NCC, Korea).
* The age at the time of diagnosis is 0\< ≤40 years
* A patent who has been diagnosed with the relevant tumor via an operation or a biopsy ⑤In the case of CNS germinoma, a biopsy may not have been performed on a patient. In this case, the patient may register as germinoma if he or she meets the following criteria: -Germinoma is strongly suspected radiologically, and a tumor marker from serum or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has not increased above the institute's reference normal value;
* Germinoma is suspected radiologically, and a tumor marker from serum or CSF has elevated above the institute's reference normal value (tumor markers may be AFP or hCG)
\<Exclusion criteria\> ①The patient or the guardian of the patient did not consent to participate.
\<Attrition criteria\>
* The patient refuses the treatment plan when the treatment is not completed.
* The consent to participate has been rescinded in the process of data collection after the completion of the treatment.
③The research subject expresses the intention to rescind the consent to participate after the subject reaches the age of majority.
\<Recruitment through an international multi-agency network\> Managers at Korean institutions who agreed to participate in the research are charged with the registration of patient information. Internationally, researchers in each institution in Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, and Korea which agreed to participate in the research enter the information by logging into a registration system.
Each institution obtained approval from its respective institutional review board.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Radiological assessments Untill the year 2027 * Brain and spinal MRI with gadolinium contrast should be obtained at the time of diagnosis.
* For early response evaluation, brain MRI is highly recommended to be obtained at radiation dose of 20 Gy in patients who are not given induction chemotherapy. Otherwise, brain MRI should be obtained after induction chemotherapy and before the initiation of radiotherapy.
* For final response evaluation, brain MRI should be obtained within 3 months after the completion of radiotherapy.Treatment response, acute and late complications, and survival Untill the year 2027 * Treatment response (by radiologic imaging, tumor markers), treatment-related acute and late complications, co-morbid condition, last traced date, whether the patient survived or not
* Whether the disease relapsed, the date of relapse, the location of relapse (brain or spine, out or inside of final boost field, out or inside of whole ventricular field)
* Development of second malignant neoplasm (SMN)Demographic and diagnostic elements Untill the year 2027 * Sex, date of birth, birth order, weight at birth, education, disability diagnosis, parents' socio-economic information, cancer family history
* Age at diagnosis, date of diagnosis, name of diagnosis, pathological name of the diagnosis, ECOG performance status at the time of diagnosis, location of tumor, stage, tumor marker, biopsy, etc.Laboratory and pathologic assessments Untill the year 2027 * Laboratory assessments include full blood count, PT, PTT, serum electrolytes, alakaline phosphatase, alanine transferase, aspartate aminotransferase, bilirubin, serum creatinine, GFR, serum lactate, and ammonium.
* Both of serum and CSF tumor markers including bHCG and AFP are highly recommended to be obtained at the time of diagnosis. Tumor markers in both serum and CSF should be obtained within 3 months after the completion of radiotherapy for final response evaluation.
* Biopsy is strongly recommended as a component of diagnostic assessments, even when germinoma is highly suspected based on radiological images and tumor markers. Biopsy is particularly strongly recommended when ß-HCG is higher than 50 mIU/mL.Radiologic response criteria Untill the year 2027 * Complete response (CR): complete disappearance of visible disease on imaging. allowing for minimal residual disease/enhancement ≤0.5 cm maximal dimension in suprasellar or ≤1cm in pineal locations.
* Partial response (PR): \> 0.5 cm dimension residual in the suprasellar area or \> 1 cm residual in pineal location, but ≥ 65% decrease in the sum of the products of the three perpendicular diameters (volume) of all target lesions.
* Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient decrease in the sum of the products of the three perpendicular diameters of all target lesions to qualify for PR (taking as reference the initial baseline measurements), nor sufficient increase in a single target lesion to qualify for PD, and residual disease of \> 1.5 cm maximal diameter.
* Progressive Disease (PD): 40% or more increase in the product of perpendicular diameters (volume) of any target lesion, or the appearance of one or more new lesions.Treatment elements Untill the year 2027 * Whether the operation has been performed and the extent of operation if performed
* Chemotherapy: Medication used for treatment, treatment response, the timing of treatment (pre- or post-radiation therapy)
* Radiation therapy: Site of treatment, treatment volume (radiotherapy field), radiation dose, treatment response, start date, end date
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Neurocognitive assessment Untill the year 2027 • Neurocognitive functions of patients are highly recommended to be assessed before the initiation of treatment (either chemotherapy or radiotherapy) and at 1 years post-treatment, and every 1-2 years thereafter after the completion of all treatment.
Quality of life assessment Untill the year 2027 • Under the standard treatment, conduct a survey before initial treatment either chemotherapy or radiotherapy, 1 years post-treatment, and every 1-2 years thereafter after the completion of all treatment (Those who underwent chemotherapy before radiotherapy need to undergo first survey before chemotherapy and additionally a second survey before radiotherapy)
