This individual case review (ICR) analysis aimed to evaluate types of deviations in the initial plan proposals and develop uniform review criteria for TB boost. Patients and methods A total of 78 patients were registered in this trial, of whom a subgroup of 65 patients were available for evaluation of the TB treatment plans. Dose uniformity was evaluated according to the definitions of the protocol. Additional RT-QC criteria for standardized review of target contours were elaborated and data evaluated accordingly. Results Of 65 initial TB plan proposals, 27 (41.5\%) revealed deviations of target volume delineation. Deviations according to the dose uniformity criteria were present in 14 (21.5\%) TB plans. In 25 (38.5\%) cases a modification of the RT plan was recommended. Rejection of the TB plans was rather related to unacceptable target volume delineation than to insufficient dose uniformity. Conclusion In this analysis of pretreatment RT-QC, protocol deviations were present in a high proportion of initial TB plan proposals. These findings emphasize the importance of pretreatment RT-QC in clinical trials for MB. Based on these data, a proposal for RT-QC criteria for tumor bed boost in non-metastatic MB was developed.}, language = {en} } @article{DietlSchwinnDietletal.2016, author = {Dietl, Sebastian and Schwinn, Stefanie and Dietl, Susanne and Riedl, Simone and Deinlein, Frank and Rutkowski, Stefan and von Bueren, Andre O. and Krauss, J{\"u}rgen and Schweitzer, Tilmann and Vince, Giles H. and Picard, Daniel and Eyrich, Matthias and Rosenwald, Andreas and Ramaswamy, Vijay and Taylor, Michael D. and Remke, Marc and Monoranu, Camelia M. and Beilhack, Andreas and Schlegel, Paul G. and W{\"o}lfl, Matthias}, title = {MB3W1 is an orthotopic xenograft model for anaplastic medulloblastoma displaying cancer stem cell- and Group 3-properties}, series = {BMC Cancer}, volume = {16}, journal = {BMC Cancer}, number = {115}, doi = {10.1186/s12885-016-2170-z}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-145877}, year = {2016}, abstract = {Background Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor in children and can be divided in different molecular subgroups. Patients whose tumor is classified as a Group 3 tumor have a dismal prognosis. However only very few tumor models are available for this subgroup. Methods We established a robust orthotopic xenograft model with a cell line derived from the malignant pleural effusions of a child suffering from a Group 3 medulloblastoma. Results Besides classical characteristics of this tumor subgroup, the cells display cancer stem cell characteristics including neurosphere formation, multilineage differentiation, CD133/CD15 expression, high ALDH-activity and high tumorigenicity in immunocompromised mice with xenografts exactly recapitulating the original tumor architecture. Conclusions This model using unmanipulated, human medulloblastoma cells will enable translational research, specifically focused on Group 3 medulloblastoma.}, language = {en} }
