- ~15% have activating mutations in PTCH1, SUFU and/or SMO
- PTCH1 germline mutations cause Gorlin's syndrome
- ~20% of sporadic harbour mutations in APC, AXIN1, AXIN2 or CTNNB1
- Turcot's syndrome, (mut in APC), has + incidence of MB
- 30–50% of cases have del: 17p + gain of 17q (forming isochr 17q: i(17)(q10)) = most common genetic lesion in MB
- del 17p – has TP53, add 17q has MYCN (Grotzer CCR 2001) (upstream of Akt, IGF2, BCL2)

Role of Radiotherapy: Historical Role of Radiotherapy: Historical PerspectivePerspective-Original series from Cushing & Baylor
showed only 1/61 survivors w/surgery alone
-Addition of Adj RT from 1969 RoyalMarsden showed 25% OS @ 10 yrs w/CSI
-Historical dose was CSI to 36 Gy w/cone down to PF to 50-54 Gy
-Single most effective tx for MB, howeversequelae have changed dosing & fields

Radiotherapy: TechniquesRadiotherapy: TechniquesCSI:- Simulate Spine 1st
- Allows calculation of collimator angle for cranial fields - Spine borders:
Sup: C2 Inf: inf S2 (end of thecal sac) Lat: 1cm lat to pedicles
- May avoid multiple spinal fields by rotating collimator or + SSD- Field Length: If <35 cm use 100cm SSD, if >35 cm then 120 cm
SSD- OARs: optic structures, lenses, mandible, thyroid gland, lung,
heart, liver, kidneys and small bowel
Radiotherapy: TechniquesRadiotherapy: TechniquesCSI:- Multiple Spinal Fields:
- If multiple spinal fields, then match at depth of mid spinal cord- Inf spinal field should have iso @ sup border of field to ½
beam block- Match fields at L1-L2 region as depth changes most here- Skin Gap = ([0.5 x Length x d]/ SSD1) + ([0.5 x length 2 x d]/SSD2)
Radiotherapy: TechniquesRadiotherapy: TechniquesCSI:- Simulate Head 2nd
- Borders: Sup: flash skin Inf: 0.5-1cm cribiform plateAnt: 1cm ant vertbrl bodies Post: 2-2.5cm post to eye
- Collimator Angle: i.e. matching divergence of spinal fields= arctan (½ length of Sup Spine field / SSD)
- Couch Angle:i.e. match diverging cranial fields= arctan (½ length cranial field / SAD)
- OARs- pituitary, optics, lenses, mandible, thyroid gland- Tx fields: opposed lateral cranial fields
Radiotherapy: TechniquesRadiotherapy: TechniquesCSI: Gap Shifting/Feathering - Every 9 Gy:
Extend inf cranial field inf by 1 cmShift upper spinal field inf by 1 cmShorten lower spine field by 1 cm
- Cranial Iso stays in same spot, Spine Iso and inf jaw moves- Recalculate Couch Angle EACH TIME

J Clin Oncol. 1999 Jul;17(7):2127-36. Treatment of children with medulloblastomas with reduced-dose craniospinal radiation therapy and adjuvant chemotherapy: A Children's Cancer Group Study.

Goal: Reduce CSI dose related neuro/endo/cog sequelae of RT w/Adj Chemo
65 Patients age 3-10 w/M0 MB - RT: CSI to 23.4Gy w/PF boost to 55.8Gy - Concurrent w/1.5mg/m2 Vinc qwk x 8C- Adj: CCNU/Cis/Vinc
Outcomes: Equivalent EFS, OS relative to historical controls w/ 36 Gy CSI
