In this. i study the MTD and RP2D, safety, PK, and preliminary activity of single-agent ribociclib were investigated in patients with neuroblastoma.

Heterogeneity in mechanisms of emergent resistance in pediatric T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Biological changes associated with T-ALL relapse and resistance are stochastic and highly individual

CCI-007, a novel small molecule with cytotoxic activity against infant leukemia with MLL rearrangements

Identified CCI-007 as a novel small molecule that displays rapid toxicity towards a subset of MLL-r, CALM-AF10 and SET-NUP214 leukemia cell lines

New treatments on horizon for rarest child brain cancers

The WA Kids Cancer Centre has a suite of world-leading research projects to unlock new treatments for childhood cancers.

Leukaemia

Leukaemia, also spelled leukemia, is a cancer that develops in the bone marrow and results in abnormal white blood cells. It is the most common cancer in children, accounting for almost a third of all childhood & teen cancers.

Treatment and Survival Outcomes for Indigenous and Non-Indigenous Australians Within the Victorian Lung Cancer Registry: A Retrospective Cross-Sectional Cohort Study

Our goal was to explore and compare risk factors, patterns of management and survival outcomes in Indigenous compared with non-Indigenous Australian patients using the Victorian Lung Cancer Registry.

A Systematic Review on the Role of Postoperative Radiotherapy in Pelvic Ewing Sarcoma

Ewing Sarcoma of the pelvis has poorer outcomes than other anatomical sites, with complex anatomy often precluding resection with wide margins. The role of postoperative radiotherapy (RT) in improving outcomes remains undefined. A systematic review using Medline, Embase and Cochrane databases (1972-April 2024) evaluated postoperative RT's impact on local recurrence, event-free survival and overall survival. Twenty-nine retrospective studies (21 to 296 patients) met inclusion criteria, with 28 rated good quality.

Advancing CNS tumor diagnostics with expanded DNA methylation-based classification

DNA methylation-based classification is now central to contemporary neuro-oncology, as highlighted by the World Health Organization classification of central nervous system tumors. This expansion is a result of newly identified tumor types discovered through our large online repository and global collaborations, underscoring CNS tumor heterogeneity.
