Exploring therapeutic options for BRCA-mutant DIPG

There is an urgent need for better therapies to treat patients with the most aggressive type of childhood cancer, Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG). DIPG is an incurable brain cancer with 5-year survival of <1%. We have formed an international collaboration to find genetic causes of DIPG, and have made ...

The current situation of childhood brain tumor long-term survivors in ...

Central nervous system tumors, represent the highest mortality rate of all childhood malignancies, Nevertheless, the number of survivors of pediatric Brain tumors continues to increase. Gradually improving survival rates and a growing population of long-term survivors have expanded the focus of research, Increased attention has been given to late ...

A novel CRISPR/Cas9 approach to target the EWS-FLI1 fusion ...

Ewing’s sarcoma (EWS) is a devastating pediatric cancer of bone and soft tissues where the treatments used are typically very toxic, resulting in profound morbidities. Furthermore, these intense and non-specific treatments often lead to secondary tumors later in life. Thus, a less toxic and more specific treatment is ...

Investigating the impact of radiation toxicity on immune response in ...

Abstract: Cancer is a disease caused by changes in the genes and a leading cause of death worldwide. Cancer treatment is challenging despite years of innovations and research. In advanced stage, it is largely incurable and poorer prognosis. Radiotherapy is one of the effective means of managing advanced stage ...

Mapping DIPG Tumour Progression and understanding Biological Heterogeneity using Spatial ...

Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) otherwise known as Diffuse Midline Glioma (DMG) is a fatal brain stem glioma arising in young children. There are no effective therapies for DIPG and children typically succumb to the disease within 2 years. No therapy to-date has improved the survival rate for children with DIPG ...
