ABSTRACT Background Fimepinostat, an oral dual inhibitor of histone deacetylase (HDAC) and phosphatidylinositol‐4,5‐bisphosphate 3‐kinase (PI3K), has shown activity in preclinical models of Myc‐driven pediatric malignancies. This Phase 1 trial aimed to determine the recommended pediatric Phase 2 dose (RPP2D), describe the toxicity profile, and evaluate

Oncohistone Mutations in Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma
Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a lethal pediatric tumor with no currently available treatment options. More than 60-70% DIPG tumors harbor heterozygous mutations at genes encoding histone H3 proteins that replace lysine 27 with methionine (K27M).

Genomic aberrations in pediatric diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas [PDF]
Diagnostic biopsy is not routinely performed for children with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG). Consequently, our understanding of DIPG biology is hindered by limited tissue availability. We performed comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) on autopsy specimens to examine the feasibility of determining DNA genomic copy number aberrations on ...

Bevacizumab in Pediatric Neuro-Oncology
Bevacizumab is often used off-label in pediatric neuro-oncology, and evidence for indications of bevacizumab use in pediatric neuro-oncology is often fragmented.

ABSTRACT Background Hypercalcemia is rarely observed in pediatric patients with cancer. However, rare cases of renal insufficiency and osteoporosis have been reported as severe consequences. Published literature focuses predominantly on hypercalcemia in pediatric hematologic malignancies, precluding causative associations with solid tumor disease ...

Pathology, 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 ...

Evaluation of a novel antibody to define histone 3.3 G34R mutant brain tumours [PDF]
Missense somatic mutations affecting histone H3.1 and H3.3 proteins are now accepted as the hallmark of paediatric diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPG), non-brain stem paediatric high grade gliomas (pHGG) as well as a subset of adult glioblastoma ...

IMPDH and GTP Metabolism in Cancer: Mechanisms, Regulation, and Translational Scope
This review provides a systematic summary of the current understanding of IMPDH biology, emphasizing its complex regulation and therapeutic relevance in cancer. We will outline key unresolved questions, including isozyme‐specific roles and mechanisms for escaping regulations, and propose mechanistic and translational strategies to design IMPDH‐targeted

A 6½‐year‐old girl was diagnosed with a medulloblastoma, SHH activated, subtype 3 and TP53 mutant (somatic). After surgery and chemotherapy, she was monitored with quarterly magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans and remained free of disease for almost 4 years.
