Risk Factors of Subsequent Central Nervous System Tumors after Childhood and Adolescent Cancers: Findings from the French Childhood Cancer Survivor Study

Neige Marie Yvanne Journy et al.

Summary: Childhood or adolescent cancer survivors undergoing cranial irradiation are at increased risk of developing subsequent primary neoplasms of the central nervous system (CNS), particularly meningiomas, and the risk is significantly associated with radiation dose. Monitoring patients with cranial irradiation should continue for at least 30 years post-treatment to ensure early detection and intervention. Identified risk factors, such as radiation dose and cumulative alkylating agents, can help inform long-term surveillance strategies for this population.

Paediatric Gliomas: BRAF and Histone H3 as Biomarkers, Therapy and Perspective of Liquid Biopsies

Jean Yin Tan et al.

Summary: Pediatric gliomas, particularly low-grade and high-grade, differ significantly from adult gliomas in terms of biomarkers, molecular mechanisms, and treatment approaches. Liquid biopsies are less invasive and may be a valuable tool for biomarker detection in children. The development of targeted therapies for pediatric gliomas, especially those with specific mutations like BRAF V600E and H3K27M, shows promising potential for better therapeutic outcomes.

Safety of growth hormone (GH) treatment in GH deficient children and adults treated for cancer and non-malignant intracranial tumors-a review of research and clinical practice

Margaret C. S. Boguszewski et al.

Summary: The safety of GH replacement therapy in survivors of cancer and brain tumors remains debated, with conflicting results from studies, especially in different age groups. While GH replacement therapy is considered relatively safe in individuals with non-functioning brain tumors, the risk versus benefit profile in other patients remains unclear.
