lomustine and Neuroectodermal Tumors, Primitive

lomustine has been researched along with Neuroectodermal Tumors, Primitive in 11 studies

Neuroectodermal Tumors, Primitive: A group of malignant tumors of the nervous system that feature primitive cells with elements of neuronal and/or glial differentiation. Use of this term is limited by some authors to central nervous system tumors and others include neoplasms of similar origin which arise extracranially (i.e., NEUROECTODERMAL TUMORS, PRIMITIVE, PERIPHERAL). This term is also occasionally used as a synonym for MEDULLOBLASTOMA. In general, these tumors arise in the first decade of life and tend to be highly malignant. (From DeVita et al., Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology, 5th ed, p2059)

"Significant advances in the treatment of medulloblastoma and primitive neuroectodermal tumors have been made in the past three decades."2.42Medulloblastomas and central nervous system primitive neuroectodermal tumors. ( McLean, TW, 2003)
"Lomustine was administered, but 1 year after surgery, the dog exhibited cluster seizures and died."1.43Case of a miniature dachshund with a primitive neuroectodermal tumor confined to the forebrain region treated with a combination of surgery and chemotherapy. ( Matsunaga, S; Nakamoto, Y; Ozawa, T; Uchida, K; Yamada, A, 2016)
"In seven MB/PNET cell lines investigated, MGMT promoter methylation was detected only in D425 human MB cells as assayed by the qualitative methylation-specific PCR and the more quantitative pyrosequencing assay."1.37Expression of O⁶-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase in childhood medulloblastoma. ( Arnold, L; Faoro, D; Gerber, NU; Grotzer, MA; Haybaeck, J; Hegi, M; Hürlimann, ML; Mittelbronn, M; Rutkowski, S; Sciuscio, D; Shalaby, T; von Bueren, AO, 2011)

"Supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumors (S-PNET) are rare and have a grim prognosis, frequently taking an aggressive course with local relapse and metastatic spread."1.33Supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumors (S-PNET) in children: A prospective experience with adjuvant intensive chemotherapy and hyperfractionated accelerated radiotherapy. ( Casanova, M; Cefalo, G; Collini, P; Ferrari, A; Fossati-Bellani, F; Gandola, L; Giangaspero, F; Luksch, R; Massimino, M; Meazza, C; Pignoli, E; Podda, M; Poggi, G; Polastri, D; Ravagnani, F; Simonetti, F; Spreafico, F; Terenziani, M, 2006)
"Much rarer are PNETs apparently arising in the leptomeninges."1.32Primary leptomeningeal primitive neuroectodermal tumor. ( Antunes, NL; Begemann, M; Dunkel, IJ; Lis, E; Lyden, D; Rosenblum, MK; Wolden, S, 2003)
"The outcome of a child with a primitive neuroectodermal tumors arising supratentorially (SPNET) is not well characterized and may differ from the outcome of a patient with a histologically similar cerebellar tumor (medulloblastoma [MB])."1.31Outcome for children with supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumors treated with surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. ( Janss, AJ; Packer, RJ; Phillips, PC; Reddy, AT; Weiss, HL, 2000)
