With the advancement of molecular oncology, numerous new opportunities are available for the effective and efficient treatment of patients diagnosed with childhood brain tumors. This includes gene panel analysis aiding personalized treatment used in clinical trials, and the application of targeted therapy independent of tissue type (tumor agnostic therapy). Most personalized therapies inhibit certain kinases. In our review, we present the modern pathological diagnosis of childhood brain tumors, as well as the complex intracellular regulation of signal transduction pathways important from the point of view of clinical practice, and we describe their further targets defined on the basis of pharmacological characteristics of the pathway, based on international and our own results. Despite common mutations affecting kinases, personalized therapy is not available in many types of tumors. Through the example of childhood brain tumors, we demonstrate the expected future therapeutic significance of tyrosine kinases.
