Interactions between acute lymphoblastic leukemia and bone marrow stromal cells influence response to therapyTo identify links between drug resistance and gene deregulation we used oligonucleotide microarray technology.

SNO-EANO-EURACAN consensus on management of pineal parenchymal tumorsPineal parenchymal tumors are rare neoplasms for which evidence-based treatment recommendations are lacking. These tumors vary in biology, clinical characteristics, and prognosis, requiring treatment that ranges from surgical resection alone to intensive multimodal antineoplastic therapy.

A novel technique of serial biopsy in mouse brain tumour modelsHere we describe a method by which serial biopsy can be used to validate response to dacomitinib treatment in vivo using a mouse glioblastoma model

Use of bevacizumab as a single agent or in adjunct with traditional chemotherapy regimens in children with unresectable or progressive low-grade gliomaBevacizumab is well tolerated and appears most effective for rapid tumor control to preserve vision and improve morbidity
Research
The case for DNA methylation based molecular profiling to improve diagnostic accuracy for central nervous system embryonal tumors (not otherwise specified) in adultsWe report the case of a 45-year-old woman who was diagnosed with a NOS based on immunohistochemical analysis of the patient's tumor at diagnosis.
