Outcomes of non-anaplastic stage III and ‘inoperable’ Wilms tumour treated in the UKW3 trial (2018)
Journal Article
Irtan, S., Messahel, B., Moroz, V., Taylor, R. E., Grundy, R., Kelsey, A., …Pritchard-Jones, K. (2019). Outcomes of non-anaplastic stage III and ‘inoperable’ Wilms tumour treated in the UKW3 trial. Radiotherapy and Oncology, 131, 1-7. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.radonc.2018.10.026

© 2018 Background and purpose: To describe the outcome of patients with stage III Wilms tumours (WT) treated in the UKW3 trial. Material and methods: Patients with a pathologically confirmed stage III non-anaplastic WT at nephrectomy (Group A) or wit...

Molecular heterogeneity and CXorf67 alterations in posterior fossa group A (PFA) ependymomas (2018)
Journal Article
Pajtler, K. W., Wen, J., Sill, M., Lin, T., Orisme, W., Tang, B., …Ellison, D. W. (2018). Molecular heterogeneity and CXorf67 alterations in posterior fossa group A (PFA) ependymomas. Acta Neuropathologica, 136(2), 211-226. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00401-018-1877-0

Of nine ependymoma molecular groups detected by DNA methylation profiling, the posterior fossa type A (PFA) is most prevalent. We used DNA methylation profiling to look for further molecular heterogeneity among 675 PFA ependymomas. Two major subgroup...

Tumour compartment transcriptomics demonstrates the activation of inflammatory and odontogenic programmes in human adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma and identifies the MAPK/ERK pathway as a novel therapeutic target (2018)
Journal Article
Apps, J. R., Carreno, G., Gonzalez-Meljem, J. M., Haston, S., Guiho, R., Cooper, J. E., …Martinez-Barbera, J. P. (2018). Tumour compartment transcriptomics demonstrates the activation of inflammatory and odontogenic programmes in human adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma and identifies the MAPK/ERK pathway as a novel therapeutic target. Acta Neuropathologica, 135(5), 757-777. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00401-018-1830-2

Adamantinomatous craniopharyngiomas (ACPs) are clinically challenging tumours, the majority of which have activating mutations in CTNNB1. They are histologically complex, showing cystic and solid components, the latter comprised of different morpholo...

Translating childhood brain tumour research into clinical practice: the experience of molecular classification and diagnostics (2018)
Journal Article
Ritzmann, T. A., & Grundy, R. G. (2018). Translating childhood brain tumour research into clinical practice: the experience of molecular classification and diagnostics. Paediatrics and Child Health, 28(4), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.paed.2018.01.006

Diagnosis and treatment of paediatric brain tumours has shown limited progress over the last half century. However, in the past 10 years the development of molecular techniques for investigating these tumours has expanded exponentially. The use of me...
