Precision medicine in pediatric oncology

Abstract: Outcome in treatment of childhood cancers has improved dramatically since the 1970s. This success was largely achieved by the implementation of cooperative clinical research trial groups that standardized and developed treatment of childhood cancer. Nevertheless, outcome in certain types of malignancies is still unfavorable. Intensification of conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy improved outcome only marginally at the cost of acute and long-term side effects. Hence, it is necessary to develop targeted t… Show more

“…HIF1α mediated hypoxia could play a role in an increase of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in the immune TME of ESFT 63 and polarization toward M2 macrophages. 64 Therefore, targeting macrophages through specific ablation or repolarization 7,45 either alone or in combination with other treatment modalities could be an interesting novel treatment strategy in the era of personalized and TME adapted medicine. Additional in vitro and in vivo studies will need to address which soluble factors are responsible for M2 macrophage and neutrophil migration into the tumor and retention.…”

“…3 Thus, the continued search for biomarkers and novel therapeutic targets is urgently needed. 7 The exact cell of origin in ESFT is unclear. However, recent evidence suggests that these tumors may arise from a mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) locked into a stemness phenotype through oncoprotein driven overexpression of enhancer of zeste homolog2 (EZH2).…”

“…In den letzten Jahren hat es (nicht nur bei den pädiatrischen Erkrankungen) zudem eine Ver-schiebung des Fokus auf einen Therapieansatz gegeben, der älter als Chemo-und Radiotherapie ist, die sog. Immunotherapie [24]. Zwar beschrieb Rudolph Virchow schon Immunzellinfiltrate ins Krebsgewebe und 1891 zeigte William Coley, dass therapeutische Modulation des Immunsystems Tumorwachstum beeinflussen kann, aber erst in den letzten 15 Jahren wurde dieser Ansatz klinisch nutzbar weiterentwickelt.…”
