New chemotherapy strategies and biological agents in the treatment of childhood ependymoma.

Karen D Wright1, Amar Gajjar.   

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: With the limited role of current treatment regimens and potential associated side effects of radiation in young children with ependymoma, considerable effort is being focused on new chemotherapeutic strategies and biologic agents. DISCUSSION AND
CONCLUSION: Identification of those molecular changes underlying the development of ependymoma may, in time, lead to the development of not only novel therapeutic agents, but also specific patient-tailored therapies directed against known cell-signaling pathways.
