Clinico-Radiological Outcomes in WNT-Subgroup Medulloblastoma.

ABSTRACT: Medulloblastoma (MB) comprises four broad molecular subgroups, namely wingless (WNT), sonic hedgehog (SHH), Group 3, and Group 4, respectively, with subgroup-specific developmental origins, unique genetic profiles, distinct clinico-demographic characteristics, and diverse clinical outcomes. This is a retrospective audit of clinical outcomes in molecularly confirmed WNT-MB patients treated with maximal safe resection followed by postoperative standard-of-care risk-stratified adjuvant radio(chemo)therapy at a tertiary-care comprehensive cancer centre. Of the 74 WNT-MB patients registered in a neuro-oncology unit between 2004 to 2020, 7 patients accrued on a prospective clinical trial of treatment deintensification were excluded, leaving 67 patients that constitute the present study cohort.
