Establishment and Clinical Application of Risk Classification Model Based on Molecular Typing of Medulloblastoma in Children

Study Purpose

The purpose of this study:(1) Development of a new risk classification model for childhood medulloblastoma.

(2) Evaluation and improvement of existing individualized treatment protocols.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms	No
Study Type An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.	Observational
Eligible Ages	6 Months - 18 Years
Gender	All

- Availability of tumor samples and determination of molecular typing.

- Postoperative KPS score ≥ 70.

- Voluntary enrollment in the group and the ability to receive long-term follow-up.

- The patient or the patient's family voluntarily signed the informed consent form.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Patients who have recently received other drugs or radiation therapy.

- Patients suffering from neurological or psychiatric diseases or mental disorders that cannot be easily controlled, or poor compliance.

- Patients who cannot receive enhanced MRI scans.

- Other conditions that the investigator believes make the patient unfit to participate in this trial.

Trial Details

Trial ID: This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.	NCT05406947
Phase Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

Medulloblastoma (medulloblastoma, MB) is the most common intracranial malignant tumor in children, accounting for 20% of all central nervous system tumors in children, seriously affecting the quality of life and life span of children. Based on a retrospective analysis of previous MB cases in our center, we found that the clinical prognosis of previous MB patients in our center was worse than that in foreign countries, with an overall five-year survival rate of about 65%, and nearly 30% of the patients had tumor recurrence and metastasis within 2 years after the operation, and the prognosis was poor. We analyzed the possible reasons as follows:

(1) the compliance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy in children with MB in our center was poor, and some of the patients only completed radiotherapy and had poor compliance with chemotherapy; (2) due to the lack of family doctor system, the tumor of the newly diagnosed patients was huge, which seriously affected the important brain function and clinical prognosis; (3) the patients were not followed up strictly and regularly after operation to monitor tumor recurrence, which led to poor treatment effect after recurrence.

(4) the unified treatment standard has not been formed yet, and the treatment mode for patients is complex.

As the largest neurosurgery and pediatric neurosurgery center in China, the center intends to prospectively establish a high-quality homogeneous MB observation cohort in children, make use of the center's case resources and biological sample processing advantages, and carry out accurate treatment research on children's MB through regular follow-up and systematic management of the clinical cohort.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

: Low risk group

Based on clinicopathological diagnosis and molecular pathological diagnosis, the children were classified into low risk groups, individualized radiotherapy and chemotherapy plan was made, and a perfect registration and follow-up system was established.

: Middle risk group

Based on clinicopathological diagnosis and molecular pathological diagnosis, the children were classified into middle risk groups, individualized radiotherapy and chemotherapy plan was made, and a perfect registration and follow-up system was established.

: High risk group

Based on clinicopathological diagnosis and molecular pathological diagnosis, the children were classified into high risk groups, individualized radiotherapy and chemotherapy plan was made, and a perfect registration and follow-up system was established.

Interventions

Other: - Prospective observational study, no intervention

Prospective observational study, no intervention
