Clinical and Molecular Characteristics of 100 Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumor Patients from Low- and Middle-Income Countries
In this cohort, no significant survival differences were observed among the methylation subgroups. The higher treatment-related mortality in our cohort compared to the original protocol's toxic-related deaths suggested that intensive and lengthy chemotherapy regimens may need modification for our population. The need for a short intensified approach, including a limited induction cycle followed by an intensified high-dose consolidation therapy, may be more appropriate for our patients with low socioeconomic status to avoid a repeated and prolonged course of protracted neutropenia.
