They hope this will help them design better future treatments and supportive care studies for this disease. Objective: To learn more about chordoma by looking at its clinical course, how it appears on imagine scans, and how it responds to therapies and treatments. Eligibility: People ages 2 and older with chordoma who are enrolled in NCI protocol 19-C-0016 Design: Participants will be screened with their medical history.
