Approaches Toward Improving the Prognosis of Pediatric Patients With Glioma: Pursuing Mutant Drug Targets With Emerging Small Molecules [PDF]
Gliomas represent approximately 70% of all pediatric brain tumors and most of these are of astrocytic lineage, furthermore, malignant or high-grade astrocytoma account for approximately 20% of pediatric astrocytoma. Treatment options for pediatric glioma

CAR T cell therapies for diffuse midline glioma
Diffuse midline glioma (DMG) is a fatal pediatric cancer of the central nervous system (CNS). The location and infiltrative nature of DMG prevents surgical resection and the benefits of palliative radiotherapy are temporary; median overall survival (OS) is 9-11 months.

Electrophysiology of glioma: a Rho GTPase-activating protein reduces tumor growth and spares neuron structure and function [PDF]
Background. Glioblastomas are the most aggressive type of brain tumor. A successful treatment should aim at halting tumor growth and protecting neuronal cells to prevent functional deficits and cognitive deterioration.

Progress in the treatment of pediatric H3 K27M mutant diffuse midline glioma
The high-grade glioma, H3 K27M mutant diffuse midline glioma tends to occur in children, and its high malignancy lead to very poor prognosis after treatment (median survival after diagnosis < 1 year).

Intersection of brain development and paediatric diffuse midline gliomas: potential role of microenvironment in tumour growth [PDF]
Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a devastating and incurable paediatric brain tumour with a median overall survival of 9 months. Until recently, DIPGs were treated similarly to adult gliomas, but due to the advancement in molecular and imaging ...
