Biology and grading of pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma-what have we learned about it?

Rachael Vaubel et al.

Summary: Pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma (PXA) is a rare astrocytoma that predominantly affects children and young adults. Comprehensive genomic characterization revealed frequent alterations in CDKN2A/B deletion and BRAFp.V600E. Clinical follow-up data showed a significant difference in overall survival between PXA and A-PXA, while progression-free survival did not show a significant difference.
