Abstract
Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT) is a malignant tumor that is commonly associated with biallelic alterations of SMARCB1. Recurrent or refractory AT/RT has not been molecularly characterized as well. We present the case of a child with recurrent AT/RT who underwent clinically integrated molecular profiling (germline DNA and tumor DNA/RNA sequencing). This demonstrated a somatic lesion in CDKN1C alongside hallmark loss of SMARCB1. This data allowed us to explore potential personalized therapies for this patient and expose a molecular driver that may be involved in similar cases.Entities:
