Background: The high incidence of recurrence and unpredictable clinical outcome for paediatric ependymoma reflect the imprecision of current therapeutic staging and need for novel risk stratification markers. Gain of chromosome 1q has been reported as a frequent aberration and correlate of adverse o...

Wilms tumour (nephroblastoma) is the most common paediatric renal tumour, affecting 1 in 10,000 children. Despite the excellent survival of patients treated with a combination of surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, approximately 15% will relapse and die of this disease. We have identified CACNA1...

Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant pediatric brain tumor, and mechanisms underlying its development are poorly understood. We identified recurrent amplification of the miR-17/92 polycistron proto-oncogene in 6% of pediatric medulloblastomas by high-resolution single-nucleotide polymorphism...

The goal of this study is to define biologically distinct subsets of Very Low Risk Wilms Tumors (VLRWT) using oligonucleotide arrays. Description: 52 tumors from the original case:cohort of 600 tumors from NWTS-5 met the criteria for VLRWT. Thirteen tumors were excluded for quality control reasons...

Wilms tumour karyotypes frequently exhibit recurrent, large-scale chromosomal imbalances, among the most common of which are concurrent loss of 1p and gain of 1q. We have previously identified a novel breakpoint at 1p13 by 1Mb-spaced array CGH, and undertook a fine-tiling oligonucleotide array appro...
