Systematic Review of Pediatric Brain Tumors in Neurofibromatosis Type 1: Status of Gene Therapy

Abstract: As oncology practice is rapidly shifting away from toxic chemotherapy, gene therapy provides a highly specific therapeutic approach for brain tumors. In this systematic review, we investigate gene therapy's status in pediatric brain tumors and future recommendations. The search was conducted systematically using PubMed, Cochrane, Google Scholar, and ClinicalTrials.gov databases. The field search used in the process was selected based on the keywords and Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), depending on the databas… Show more

“…[24][25][26] Gliomas NF1 incurs a susceptibility to optic pathway gliomas (OPG) and brain stem gliomas, most frequently pilocytic astrocytomas. [27][28][29] Approximately two-thirds of these tumors belong to the OPG category. OPG are World Health Organization (WHO) grade I astrocytic tumors 27 that almost always remain fully benign, but which can lead to blindness or other symptoms associated with tumor location.…”
