Subtyping of Group 3/4 medulloblastoma as a potential prognostic biomarker among patients treated with reduced dose of craniospinal irradiation: a Japanese Pediatric Molecular Neuro-Oncology Group study

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: One of the most significant challenges in patients with medulloblastoma is reducing the dose of craniospinal irradiation (CSI) to minimize neurological sequelae in survivors. Molecular characterization of patients receiving lower than standard dose of CSI therapy is important to facilitate further reduction of treatment burden. METHODS: We conducted DNA methylation analysis using an Illumina...
