Genomics Identifies Medulloblastoma Subgroups That Are Enriched for Specific Genetic Alterations

TL;DR: Genome-wide expression profiles can partition large tumor cohorts into subgroups that are enriched for specific genetic alterations that may assist ultimately in the selection of patients for future clinical trials of molecular targeted therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurocognitive Consequences of Risk-Adapted Therapy for Childhood Medulloblastoma

TL;DR: Young age at diagnosis was the most prominent risk factor for neurocognitive deficits among survivors of MB despite reductions in CSI dosing and efforts to limit the boost volume.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sebastian M. Waszak, +97 more
- 01 Jun 2018 - 
TL;DR: The prevalence of genetic predispositions differed between molecular subgroups in the retrospective cohort and was highest for patients in the MBSHH subgroup, and survival estimates differed significantly across patients with germline mutations in different medulloblastoma predisposition genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Retinoblastoma: Review of Current Management

TL;DR: The most common ocular cancer in children is retinoblastoma, and exciting discoveries using animal models are providing new insights into the development of this disease and opening new avenues for targeted therapies that may lead to high cure rates with minimal toxicities.
