The effectiveness and safety of proton beam radiation therapy in children and young adults with Central Nervous System (CNS) tumours: a systematic review (2024)
Journal Article

Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumours account for around 25% of childhood neoplasms. With multi-modal therapy, 5-year survival is at around 75% in the UK. Conventional photon radiotherapy has made significant contributions to survival, but...

Characterisation of Aberrant Metabolic Pathways in Hepatoblastoma Using Liquid Chromatography and Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) (2023)
Journal Article

Hepatoblastoma (HB) is a rare childhood tumour with an evolving molecular landscape. We present the first comprehensive metabolomic analysis using untargeted and targeted liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry (LC-M...

Development of cancer surveillance guidelines in ataxia telangiectasia: A Delphi‐based consensus survey of international experts (2023)
Journal Article

Background/Objectives: Ataxia telangiectasia (A‐T) is a multiorgan disorder with increased vulnerability to cancer. Despite this increased cancer risk, there are no widely accepted guidelines for cancer surveillance in people affected by A‐T. We aime...

Evaluating the efficacy and safety of single-agent etoposide intra-CSF chemotherapy in children and young people with relapsed/refractory central nervous system tumours (2023)
Journal Article

Purpose The aim of the project was to evaluate intra-CSF etoposide administration in a palliative setting for children and young people with relapsed/refractory central nervous system (CNS) tumours, with the primary endpoints being overall survival...

Whole-body MRI for cancer surveillance in ataxia–telangiectasia: A qualitative study of the perspectives of people affected by A-T and their families (2023)
Journal Article

Background/Objectives: Ataxia–telangiectasia (A-T) is a complex inherited disease associated with an increased risk of malignancy. Surveillance guidelines have demonstrated significant health benefits in other cancer predisposition syndromes. However...
