Embryonal tumor with multilayered rosettes is a rare and highly malignant early childhood brain tumor. We report a case of embryonal tumor with multilayered rosettes in the parietooccipital region of a 2-year-old girl. Histopathology of the tumor demonstrated amplification of the 19q13.42 locus and strong positivity for LIN28A. Treatment was multimodal and included 3 surgical resections, adjuvant chemotherapy with autologous stem cell rescue, and focal radiotherapy. The use of the agents vorinostat and isotretinoin, and the addition of focal radiation have not been extensively described in this patient population, but may attribute to our patient's sustained remission at 2.5-years follow-up.

We aimed to build a robust classifier for the MGMT methylation status of glioblastoma in multiparametric MRI. We focused on multi-habitat deep image descriptors as our basic focus. A subset of the BRATS 2021 MGMT methylation dataset containing both MGMT class labels and segmentation masks was used.

Management of melanoma has changed significantly with the discovery of targeted therapies and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). Our aim in the study is to determine which treatment alternatives, specifically dabrafenib plus trametinib and ICIs, are effective in adjuvant therapy and which treatment is effective as first-line metastatic therapy. This retrospective, multicenter study included 120 patients diagnosed with stage IIIB-IIID melanoma receiving both adjuvant and first-line metastatic treatment between 2007 and 2023.

Glioblastomas (GBMs) are the most common and aggressive brain tumors, with a poor prognosis. Effective preclinical models are crucial to investigate GBM biology and develop novel treatments. Syngeneic models, which consist in injecting murine GBM cells into mice with a similar genetic background, offer reproducibility, cost-effectiveness, and an intact immune system, making them ideal for immunotherapy research.
