Multicentre service evaluation of presentation of newly diagnosed cancers and type 1 diabetes in children in the UK during the COVID-19 pandemic (2021)
Journal Article

Background The COVID-19 pandemic led to changes in patterns of presentation to emergency departments. Child health professionals were concerned that this could contribute to the delayed diagnosis of life-threatening conditions, including childhood ca...

EPEN-04. SIOP EPENDYMOMA I: FINAL RESULTS, LONG TERM FOLLOW-UP AND MOLECULAR ANALYSIS OF THE TRIAL COHORT: A BIOMECA CONSORTIUM STUDY (2021)
Journal Article

Introduction Surgery and radiotherapy are established childhood ependymoma treatments. The efficacy of chemotherapy has been debated. We report final results of the SIOP Ependymoma I trial, with 12-year follow-up, in the context of a post-hoc analys... Read More about EPEN-04. SIOP EPENDYMOMA I: FINAL RESULTS, LONG TERM FOLLOW-UP AND MOLECULAR ANALYSIS OF THE TRIAL COHORT: A BIOMECA CONSORTIUM STUDY.

EPEN-07. SINGLE-CELL RNA SEQUENCING IDENTIFIES A UNIQUE MYELOID SUBPOPULATION ASSOCIATED WITH MESENCHYMAL TUMOR SUBPOPULATION IN POOR OUTCOME PEDIATRIC EPENDYMOMA (2021)
Journal Article

We have previously shown immune gene phenotype variations between posterior fossa ependymoma subgroups. PFA1 tumors chronically secrete IL-6, which induces secretion of myeloid cell IL-8 and pushes the infiltrating myeloid cells to an immune suppress... Read More about EPEN-07. SINGLE-CELL RNA SEQUENCING IDENTIFIES A UNIQUE MYELOID SUBPOPULATION ASSOCIATED WITH MESENCHYMAL TUMOR SUBPOPULATION IN POOR OUTCOME PEDIATRIC EPENDYMOMA.

EPEN-11. TUMOR DIFFERENTIATION IMPACTS THE BIOLOGY OF RECURRENCE IN CHILDHOOD POSTERIOR FOSSA EPENDYMOMA (2021)
Journal Article

Ependymoma (EPN) of childhood is curable in only 50% of cases, with recurrences in the remainder that are refractory to treatment. In recent years significant advances have been made in understanding the molecular and cellular biology of EPN. Recent... Read More about EPEN-11. TUMOR DIFFERENTIATION IMPACTS THE BIOLOGY OF RECURRENCE IN CHILDHOOD POSTERIOR FOSSA EPENDYMOMA.

Assessment of Cannabidiol and ?9-Tetrahydrocannabiol in Mouse Models of Medulloblastoma and Ependymoma (2021)
Journal Article

Children with medulloblastoma and ependymoma are treated with a multidisciplinary approach that incorporates surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy; however, overall survival rates for patients with high-risk disease remain unsatisfactory. Data indi... Read More about Assessment of Cannabidiol and ?9-Tetrahydrocannabiol in Mouse Models of Medulloblastoma and Ependymoma.
