26 Stratification Biological Markers (M1-3)?

27 Biological markers high risk (M + versus M 0)

28 WNT / overall survival / M + versus M 0 97% : classic subtype 9% M + (n = 6 -?-, details not mentioned) M + only children Total : 68 pat. moderate RT concept in WNT M +? Kool, et al., 2012

29 Conclusions M 1 PFS / OS better than M 2 /3 - timing (immediate RT?) M 2/3 Dose response relationship - HART (Italy) : excellent outcome (however : only few patients) - HIT POG 9031 / St. Jude experience Overall treatment time (?) Open question : timing (immediate RT, chx. protocol?) role of acceleration (HART)? M 1-3 Role of concurrent radio-chemotherapy (COG protocol)? Role of biological markers? - stratification of treatment survival benefit 20-30%? (WNT : moderate RT concept?)
