Local staging and treatment in extremity rhabdomyosarcoma. A report from the EpSSG-RMS2005 study.
Rhabdomyosarcoma of the extremities present with two main challenges: correct evaluation of initial regional nodal involvement and define adequate local treatment. Methods Pediatric patients with localized rhabdomyosarcoma ...
18F-FDG PET/CT in Detecting Metastatic Infection in Children.
(2016-04)
Purpose of the report Metastatic infection is a severe complication of bacteremia with high morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of 18F-FDG PET combined with CT (FDG PET/CT) ...
Individualized 131I-mIBG therapy in the management of refractory and relapsed neuroblastoma.
(SPRINGER, 2013-10-01)
OBJECTIVE: Iodine-131-labelled meta-iodobenzylguanidine (I-mIBG) therapy is an established treatment modality for relapsed/refractory neuroblastoma, most frequently administered according to fixed or weight-based criteria. ...
Intrinsic susceptibility MRI identifies tumors with ALKF1174L mutation in genetically-engineered murine models of high-risk neuroblastoma.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2014-03-25)
The early identification of children presenting ALK(F1174L)-mutated neuroblastoma, which are associated with resistance to the promising ALK inhibitor crizotinib and a marked poorer prognosis, has become a clinical priority. ...
MRI Imaging of the Hemodynamic Vasculature of Neuroblastoma Predicts Response to Antiangiogenic Treatment.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-06)
Childhood neuroblastoma is a hypervascular tumor of neural origin, for which antiangiogenic drugs are currently being evaluated; however, predictive biomarkers of treatment response, crucial for successful delivery of ...
A tailored molecular profiling programme for children with cancer to identify clinically actionable genetic alterations.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2019-11-01)
BACKGROUND: For children with cancer, the clinical integration of precision medicine to enable predictive biomarker-based therapeutic stratification is urgently needed. METHODS: We have developed a hybrid-capture next-generation ...
Addition of dose-intensified doxorubicin to standard chemotherapy for rhabdomyosarcoma (EpSSG RMS 2005): a multicentre, open-label, randomised controlled, phase 3 trial.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2018-08-01)
BACKGROUND: Rhabdomyosarcoma is an aggressive tumour that can develop in almost any part of the body. Doxorubicin is an effective drug against rhabdomyosarcoma, but its role in combination with an established multidrug ...
Combined MYC and P53 defects emerge at medulloblastoma relapse and define rapidly progressive, therapeutically targetable disease.
(CELL PRESS, 2015-01-12)
We undertook a comprehensive clinical and biological investigation of serial medulloblastoma biopsies obtained at diagnosis and relapse. Combined MYC family amplifications and P53 pathway defects commonly emerged at relapse, ...
Integrated Molecular Meta-Analysis of 1,000 Pediatric High-Grade and Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-10-09)
We collated data from 157 unpublished cases of pediatric high-grade glioma and diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma and 20 publicly available datasets in an integrated analysis of >1,000 cases. We identified co-segregating ...
Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma with regional nodal involvement: Results of a combined analysis from two cooperative groups.
(WILEY, 2021-03-01)
BACKGROUND: Treatment of children and adolescents with alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) and regional nodal involvement (N1) have been approached differently by North American and European cooperative groups. In order to ...
