Molecular insights into pediatric brain tumors have the potential to transform therapy.
High-throughput genomic technologies have shed light on the biologic heterogeneity of several pediatric brain tumors. The biology of the four common pediatric brain tumors-namely medulloblastoma; ependymoma; high-grade glioma (HGG), including diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma; and low-grade glioma-is highlighted in this CCR Focus article. The discovery that medulloblastoma consists of four diffe...
متن کاملPotential New Therapies for Pediatric Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma
Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is an extensively invasive malignancy with infiltration into other regions of the brainstem. Although large numbers of specific targeted therapies have been tested, no significant progress has been made in treating these high-grade gliomas. Therefore, the identification of new therapeutic approaches is of great importance for the development of more effec...
متن کاملDiffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma: Time for Cautious Optimism.
Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma is a lethal brain cancer that arises in the pons of children. The median survival for children with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma is less than 1 year from diagnosis, and no improvement in survival has been realized in more than 30 years. Currently, the standard of care for diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma is focal radiation therapy, which provides only tempor...

demonstrated ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and to permeate the brainstem. Rapid advances in understanding DIPG biology and identifying new potential therapies have resulted from discovery of theDIPGH3.3 K27M mutation. New insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying DIPG tumorigenesis have revealed promising molecular therapeutic agents that alter histone methylation biology (su...
متن کاملPathology, Molecular Genetics, and Epigenetics of Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma
Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a devastating pediatric brain cancer with no effective therapy. Histological similarity of DIPG to supratentorial high-grade astrocytomas of adults has led to assumptions that these entities possess similar underlying molecular properties and therefore similar therapeutic responses to standard therapies. The failure of all clinical trials in the last 3...
متن کاملSuperselective intracerebral catheterization for administration of oncolytic virotherapy in a case of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma.
New therapies are needed to improve current results in diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma. We present here the initial experience of administering Celyvir, autologous mesenchymal stem cells infected with ICOVIR-5, an oncolytic adenovirus that selectively replicates in cancer cells, by means of superselective intra-arterial delivery, in a patient diagnosed of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma. Feas...
