The substance P (SP)/NK-1 receptor (NK1R) complex represents an intriguing anticancer target for a variety of tumors, including hepatoblastoma (HB). Therefore, NK1R antagonists, such as the clinical drug aprepitant, recently have been proposed as potent anticancer agents. However, very little is known regarding the molecular basis of NK1R inhibition in cancer. Using reverse phase protein array, Western blot, Super TOP/FOP, confocal microscopy, and sphere formation ability (SFA) assays, we identified the AKT and Wnt signaling pathways as the key targets of aprepitant in three human HB cell lines (HepT1, HepG2, and HuH6). Following NK1R blockage, we observed decreased phosphorylation of p70S6K and 4E-BP1/2 and inhibition of the canonical Wnt pathway with subsequent decrease of HB cell growth. This effect was dependent of high baseline Wnt activity either by mutational status of Î²-catenin or extrinsic Wnt activation. Wnt inhibition seemed to be strengthened by disruption of the FOXM1-Î²-catenin complex. Furthermore, treatment of HB cells with aprepitant led to reduced expression of (liver) stemness markers (AFP, CD13, SOX2, NANOG, and OCT4) and SFA when grown under cancer stem cell conditions. Taken together, we show for the first time that targeting the SP/NK1R signaling cascade inhibits canonical Wnt signaling in HB cells. These findings reveal important insight into the molecular mechanisms of the SP/NK1R complex as a critical component in a model of pediatric liver cancer and may support the development of novel therapeutic interventions for HB and other Wnt-activated cancers.

PURPOSE: We sought to identify the clinical variables most critical to successful treatment of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Among the factors tested were age at diagnosis (< 2 years or > or = 2 years), time from diagnosis to initiation of treatment with or without etoposide-containing regimens, timing of cyclosporin A (CSA) administration during induction therapy, and the presence or absence of etoposide. RESULTS: By Kaplan-Meier analysis, the overall survival rate for the entire cohort of 47 patients, most of whom had moderately severe to severe disease, was 78.3% +/- 6.7% (SE) at 4 years. The probability of long-term survival was significantly higher when etoposide treatment was begun less than 4 weeks from diagnosis (90.2% +/- 6.9% v 56.5% +/- 12.6% for patients receiving this agent later or not at all; P <.01, log-rank test). Multivariate analysis with the Cox proportional hazards model demonstrated the independent prognostic significance of a short interval from EBV-HLH diagnosis to etoposide administration (relative risk of death for patients lacking this feature, 14.1; 95% confidence interval, 1.16 to 166.7; P =.04). None of the competing variables analyzed had significant predictive strength in the Cox model. However, concomitant use of CSA with etoposide in a subset of patients appears to have prevented serious complications from neutropenia during the first year of treatment. CONCLUSION: We conclude that early administration of etoposide, preferably with CSA, is the treatment of choice for patients with EBV-HLH.
Imashuku S	Clinical features and treatment strategies of Epstein-Barr virus-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.	Critical reviews in oncology/hematology 2002, 44: 259
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is the major triggering factor producing hemophagocytic syndrome or hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). In this review, diagnostic problems, clinical and histopathological features, and treatment strategies of EBV-HLH have been described. In patients with EBV-HLH, the EBV-infected T cells or natural killer (NK) cells are mostly mono- or oligo-clonally proliferating, where hypercytokinemia plays a major role and causes hemophagocytosis, cellular damage and dysfunction of various organs. Although the majority of EBV-HLH cases develop in apparently immunocompetent children and adolescents, it also occurs in association with infectious mononucleosis, chronic active EBV infection, familial HLH, X-linked lymphoproliferative disease, lymphoproliferative disease like peripheral T-cell lymphoma and NK cell leukemia. In terms of treatment, special therapeutic measures are required to control the cytokine storm generated by EBV and to suppress proliferating EBV-genome-containing cells, because the clinical courses are often fulminant and result in a poor outcome.

Medical and pediatric oncology 2003, 41: 103
BACKGROUND: Epstein-Barr virus-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (EBV-HLH), also known as EBV-associated hemophagocytic syndrome, develops mostly in children and young adults and may be fatal. Early etoposide treatment has been confirmed to be effective in children. However, it is unclear whether the same treatment is useful in adults. PROCEDURE: To assess whether etoposide is effective in treating young adult cases, we retrospectively studied the therapeutic measures taken and outcomes in 20 young adult cases of EBV-HLH. Eleven cases were registered in our HLH study center in Kyoto and nine derived from the literature. The patients were between 17 and 33 years old and eight were males. The influence of gender, cell lineage (T- or natural killer-), EBV serology pattern, jaundice and treatment on the outcome was assessed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Patients receiving etoposide within four weeks after diagnosis had a good prognosis as five of the seven patients survived compared to one of 13 not treated with etoposide or treated late (chi-square test for survival, P = 0.0095). The Kaplan-Meier analysis showed the 2.5-year survival of 85.7 +/- 13.2% in the early etoposide-treated patients, compared to 10.3 +/- 9.4% in the remaining patients (log-rank test, P = 0.0141). Thus, early etoposide treatment is effective in treating EBV-HLH in young adults as well as in children.

Mutations of the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP) gene result either in the classic Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) or in a less severe form, X-linked thrombocytopenia (XLT). A phenotype-genotype correlation has been reported by some but not by other investigators. In this study, we characterized WASP gene mutations in 50 Japanese patients and analyzed the clinical phenotype and course of each. All patients with missense mutations were WASP-positive. In contrast, patients with nonsense mutations, large deletions, small deletions, and small insertions were WASP-negative. Patients with splice anomalies were either WASP-positive or WASP-negative. The clinical phenotype of each patient was correlated with the presence or absence of WASP. Lack of WASP expression was associated with susceptibility to bacterial, viral, fungal, and Pneumocystis carinii infections and with severe eczema, intestinal hemorrhage, death from intracranial bleeding, and malignancies. Rates for overall survival and survival without intracranial hemorrhage or other serious complications were significantly lower in WASP-negative patients. This analysis provides evidence for a strong phenotype-genotype correlation and demonstrates that WAS protein expression is a useful tool for predicting long-term prognosis for patients with WAS/XLT. Based on data presented here, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation should be considered, especially for WASP-negative patients, while the patients are young to improve prognosis.

Acute and chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is traditionally based on the duration of thrombocytopenia at the cut-off point of 6 months after diagnosis. Registry I evaluated the diagnosis, definition, management, and follow-up of childhood ITP. This report focuses on children with thrombocytopenia persisting more than 6 months.
Imhof SM, Moll AC, Hofman P, Mourits MP, Schipper J, Tan KE	Second primary tumours in hereditary- and nonhereditary retinoblastoma patients treated with megavoltage external beam irradiation.	Documenta ophthalmologica. Advances in ophthalmology 1997, 93: 337
The purpose of this retrospective study is to investigate the influence of 45 Gy megavoltage external beam radiotherapy on the occurrence of second primary tumours in hereditary- and non-hereditary retinoblastoma patients. Eighty-seven hereditary and 19 non-hereditary patients were irradiated for retinoblastoma. The follow-up of the hereditary patients ranged from 4-23 years (mean 12.4 years), of the non-hereditary patients from 6-23 years (mean 12 years). In the hereditary group 4 patients developed a second primary tumour (2 rhabdomyosarcoma, 1 osteosarcoma, 1 malignant histiocytoma), and 5 patients developed a pineoblastoma. Three second primary tumours were situated inside the radiation field. The latency period ranged from 1.5 to 18 years (mean 4.8 years). None of the non-hereditary patients developed a second primary tumour. The actuarially calculated probability of being free from second primary tumours was 96.9% at 10 years and 89.4% at 20 years (pineoblastoma excluded). The survival was 91.2% at 10 years and 84.2% at 20 years (pineoblastoma excluded). From this study it is suggested that external beam irradiation has a potentiating effect in patients, with the genetic predispopsition for retinoblastoma and who are more susceptible to second primary malignancies.

J Clin Oncol 2011 29: 3293
PURPOSE To assess the toxicity, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of multikinase inhibitor sorafenib in combination with clofarabine and cytarabine in children with relapsed/refractory leukemia. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twelve patients with acute leukemia (11 with acute myeloid leukemia [AML]) received sorafenib on days 1 to 7 and then concurrently with cytarabine (1 g/m(2)) and clofarabine (stratum one: 40 mg/m(2), n = 10; stratum two [recent transplantation or fungal infection]: 20 mg/m(2), n = 2) on days 8 to 12. Sorafenib was continued until day 28 if tolerated. Two sorafenib dose levels (200 mg/m(2) and 150 mg/m(2) twice daily) were planned. Sorafenib pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies were performed on days 7 and 8. Results At sorafenib 200 mg/m(2), two of four patients in stratum one and one of two patients in stratum two had grade 3 hand-foot skin reaction and/or rash as dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). No DLTs were observed in six patients in stratum one at sorafenib 150 mg/m(2). Sorafenib inhibited the phosphorylation of AKT, S6 ribosomal protein, and 4E-BP1 in leukemia cells. The rate of sorafenib conversion to its metabolite sorafenib N-oxide was high (mean, 33%; range, 17% to 69%). In vitro, the N-oxide potently inhibited FLT3-internal tandem duplication (ITD; binding constant, 70 nmol/L) and the viability of five AML cell lines. On day 8, sorafenib decreased blast percentages in 10 of 12 patients (median, 66%; range, 9% to 95%). After combination chemotherapy, six patients (three FLT3-ITD and three FLT3 wild-type AML) achieved complete remission, two (both FLT3-ITD AML) had complete remission with incomplete blood count recovery, and one (FLT3 wild-type AML) had partial remission. CONCLUSION Sorafenib in combination with clofarabine and cytarabine is tolerable and shows activity in relapsed/refractory pediatric AML.
Inusa B, Casale M, Booth C, Lucas S	Subarachnoid haemorrhage and cerebral vasculopathy in a child with sickle cell anaemia.	BMJ case reports 2014,
Stroke in sickle cell anaemia (SCA) is either infarctive or haemorrhagic in nature. In childhood, over 75% of strokes in SCA are infarctive. We present an adolescent with SCA who developed hypertension at the age of 13, and was treated with lisinopril. Sixteen months later she was found in cardiorespiratory arrest and died on arrival in hospital. The last transcranial Doppler scan performed 6 months before her death and a brain MRI were reported normal. The autopsy discovered massive subarachnoid haemorrhage in association with vascular damage in the circle of Willis arteries. The case highlights a cause of haemorrhagic stroke, the first reported association between hypertension, SCA and a histopathologically proven cerebral vasculopathy. The difficulties in the management of haemorrhagic stroke and the poor outcome in SCA are discussed.
Iolascon A, Russo R, Delaunay J	Congenital dyserythropoietic anemias.	Current opinion in hematology 2011, 18: 146
Congenital dyserythropoietic anemias (CDAs) are rare hereditary disorders characterized by ineffective erythropoiesis and by distinct morphological abnormalities of erythroblasts in the bone marrow. Characteristic morphological aberrations were the cornerstone of diagnosis, but following the identification of several causative genes, the molecular approach could represent a rapid tool for the identification of these conditions. This review presents advances in diagnosis and classification of CDAs.

Trilateral retinoblastoma (TRB) is a rare condition characterized by an intracranial neuroblastic tumor associated with bilateral or unilateral retinoblastoma (RB). The outcome is almost always fatal. An 18-month-old patient with familial bilateral RB was referred for a pineal lesion detected on a screening by magnetic resonance imaging. The child, considered inoperable by 2 different neurosurgical teams, was treated with conventional chemotherapy (methotrexate, vincristine, vepeside, cyclophosphamide, and carboplatin) plus tandem transplantation (vepeside/carboplatin and thiotepa/mephalan) followed by local radiotherapy. At 80 months from the diagnosis of TRB, the patient is alive and in complete remission, with no neuropsychologic consequences. An early and aggressive treatment may improve the prognosis of TRB.

European journal of cancer 2019, 116: 13
RATIONALE: The impact of biopsying Wilms tumour (WT) at diagnosis on assigning the tumour stage and recommended treatment remains controversial. To address this important question, we analysed the potential association of all types of biopsy with local recurrence in patients treated in the SIOP WT 2001 trial, where needle biopsy was permitted without 'upstaging' the tumour to stage III. Only open biopsy required treatment as stage III. METHODS: Among 2971 patients with unilateral WT (stages I-IV), 420 relapsed (139 local). Risk factors for recurrence were analysed by Cox proportional hazard methods. RESULTS: Biopsy was performed in 969 of 2971 (33%) patients (64% cutting needle, 30% fine needle aspiration [FNA] and 6% open biopsy). Biopsied patients were older, with larger tumours and a greater proportion with high-risk histology. In multivariate analysis that included all factors associated with local recurrence in univariate analysis, only high-risk histology (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.32; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.58-3.42, p=<0.0001), age≥2 years (HR = 2.24; 95% CI: 1.22-4.09, p = 0.01) and preoperative tumour volume (HR = 1.07 per 100 ml; 95% CI: 1.02-1.12, p = 0.01) were significant. The HR for the association of local recurrence and event-free and overall survival with biopsy was not significant (HR = 1.4; 95% CI: 0.9-2.17, p = 0.13; HR = 1.1; 95% CI: 0.85-1.42, p = 0.46 and HR = 1.13; 95% CI: 0.79-1.62, p = 0.51, respectively). These results were not materially different whether FNA or open biopsy were included in the biopsy group or not. CONCLUSIONS: This post hoc analysis provides some reassurance that needle biopsy is not an independent adverse factor for either local recurrence or survival after adjustment for all relevant risk factors. Needle biopsy should not be an automatic criterion to 'upstage' WT. Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Blood 2014, 124: 3420
For most children who relapse with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), the prognosis is poor, and there is a need for novel therapies to improve outcome. We screened samples from children with B-lineage ALL entered into the ALL-REZ BFM 2002 clinical trial (www.clinicaltrials.gov, #NCT00114348) for somatic mutations activating the Ras pathway (KRAS, NRAS, FLT3, and PTPN11) and showed mutation to be highly prevalent (76 from 206). Clinically, they were associated with high-risk features including early relapse, central nervous system (CNS) involvement, and specifically for NRAS/KRAS mutations, chemoresistance. KRAS mutations were associated with a reduced overall survival. Mutation screening of the matched diagnostic samples found many to be wild type (WT); however, by using more sensitive allelic-specific assays, low-level mutated subpopulations were found in many cases, suggesting that they survived up-front therapy and subsequently emerged at relapse. Preclinical evaluation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1/2 inhibitor selumetinib (AZD6244, ARRY-142886) showed significant differential sensitivity in Ras pathway-mutated ALL compared with WT cells both in vitro and in an orthotopic xenograft model engrafted with primary ALL; in the latter, reduced RAS-mutated CNS leukemia. Given these data, clinical evaluation of selumetinib may be warranted for Ras pathway-mutated relapsed ALL.
Isakoff MS, Bielack SS, Meltzer P, Gorlick R	Osteosarcoma: Current Treatment and a Collaborative Pathway to Success.	Journal of clinical oncology : official journal of the American Society of Clinical Oncology 2015 Sep 20; 33: 3029
Osteosarcoma is the bone tumor that most commonly affects children, adolescents, and young adults. Before 1970, treatment primarily included surgical resection. However, the introduction of chemotherapy led to a dramatic improvement in prognosis for patients with localized osteosarcoma; long-term survival rates of less than 20% improved to 65% to 70% after the advent of multiagent chemotherapy regimens. Controversy concerning the ideal combination of chemotherapy agents ensued throughout the last quarter of the 20th century because of conflicting and often nonrandomized data. However, large cooperative group studies and international collaboration have demonstrated that the most effective regimens include the combination of high-dose methotrexate, doxorubicin, and cisplatin (MAP). The introduction of biologic agents such as muramyl tripeptide and the use of additional cytotoxic chemotherapy such as ifosfamide have not definitively improved the survival of patients with osteosarcoma. Collaborative efforts to increase understanding of the biology of osteosarcoma and the use of preclinical models to test novel agents will be critical to identify the path toward improving outcomes for patients. Once promising agents are identified, an international infrastructure exists for clinical trials. Herein, biologic, preclinical, and clinical trial efforts will be described along with future international collaborative strategies to improve outcomes for patients who develop this challenging tumor. © 2015 by American Society of Clinical Oncology.
