PURPOSE Efforts to address inequities in the treatment of pediatric CNS tumors and the burden of childhood cancer globally have prompted the designation of low-grade glioma as one of six index cancers for the World Health Organization Global Initiative for Childhood Cancer. Understanding the importance of neurosurgical interventions and evaluating pediatric neurosurgical capacity may identify critical interventions to improve outcomes for children with low-grade glioma and other CNS tumors. METHODS An online, cross-sectional survey assessing pediatric neurosurgical practice and capacity was distributed to members of the International Society of Pediatric Neurosurgery. The survey included 36 items covering domains including patient volume, available infrastructure, scope of practice, case distribution, and multidisciplinary care. RESULTS Responses from 196 individuals from 61 countries, spanning all WHO regions, were included. Ninety-six (49.0%) were from high-income countries, 57 (29.1%) were from upper-middle–income countries, 42 (21.4%) were from lower-middle–income countries (LMICs), and 1 was (0.5%) from a low-income country. Most respondents had a catchment population of ≥ 1 million and indicated the availability of basic neurosurgical resources such as a dedicated neurosurgical operating theater and surgical microscope. The presence of a neurosurgical intensive care unit, inpatient rehabilitation services, and infection monitoring showed similar availability across country groups. Quantitative scoring of 13 infrastructure and service items established that fewer resources were available in low-income countries/LMICs and upper-middle–income countries compared with high-income countries. The volume of pediatric CNS tumor cases and case distribution did not vary according to World Bank country groups. CONCLUSION This study provides a comprehensive evaluation of pediatric neurosurgical capacity across the globe, establishing variability of resources on the basis of the country income level. Our findings suggest that pediatric neurosurgeons in LMICs may benefit from key neurosurgical instrumentation and increased support for multidisciplinary brain tumor programs and childhood cancer research efforts.

PURPOSE Pediatric neuro-oncology resources are mostly unknown in Chile. We report the human and material resources available in Chilean hospitals providing pediatric neuro-oncology services. METHODS A cross-sectional survey was distributed to 17 hospitals providing pediatric neuro-oncology services (Programa Infantil Nacional de Drogas Antineoplásicas [PINDA] hospitals, 11; private, 6). RESULTS Response rate was 71% (PINDA, 8; private, 4). Pediatric neuro-oncology services were mainly provided within general hospitals (67%). Registries for pediatric CNS tumors and chemotherapy-related toxicities were available in 100% and 67% of hospitals, respectively. CNS tumors were treated by pediatric oncologists in 92% of hospitals; none were formally trained in neuro-oncology. The most used treatment protocols were the national PINDA protocols. All WHO essential medicines for childhood cancer were available in more than 80% of the hospitals except for gemcitabine, oxaliplatin, paclitaxel, and procarbazine. The median number of pediatric neurosurgeons per hospital was two (range, 2-6). General neuroradiologists were available in 83% of the centers. Pathology specimens were sent to neuropathologists (58%), adult pathologists (25%), and pediatric pathologists (17%). Intensity-modulated radiotherapy, conformal radiotherapy, and cobalt radiotherapy were used by 67%, 58%, and 42% of hospitals, respectively. Only one private hospital performed autologous hematopoietic cell transplant for children with CNS tumors. CONCLUSION A wide range of up-to-date treatment modalities are available for children with CNS tumors. Our survey highlights future directions to improve the pediatric neuro-oncology services available in Chile such as the expansion of multidisciplinary clinics, palliative care services, long-term cancer survivorship programs, dedicated clinical research support teams, establishing standardized mechanism for sending pathologic specimen for second opinion to international specialized centers, and establishing specialized neuro-oncology training program.

PURPOSE Pediatric CNS tumors are increasingly a priority, particularly with the WHO designation of low-grade glioma (LGG) as one of six index childhood cancers. There are currently limited data on outcomes of pediatric patients with LGGs in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). METHODS To better understand the outcomes of LGGs in LMICs, this systematic review interrogated nine literature databases. RESULTS The search identified 14,977 publications. Sixteen studies from 19 countries met the selection criteria and were included for data abstraction and analysis. Eleven studies (69%) were retrospective reviews from single institutions, and one (6%) captured institutional data prospectively. The studies captured a total of 957 patients with a median of 49 patients per study. Seven (44%) of the studies described the treatment modalities used. Of 373 patients for whom there was information, 173 (46%) had a gross total or near total resection, 109 (29%) had a subtotal resection, and 91 (24%) had only a biopsy performed. Seven studies, with a total of 476 patients, described the frequency of use of radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy in the cohorts: 83 of these patients received radiotherapy and 76 received chemotherapy. The 5-year overall survival ranged from 69.2% to 93.5%, although lower survival rates were reported at earlier time points. We identified limitations in the published studies with respect to the cohort sizes and methodologies. CONCLUSION The included studies reported survival rates frequently exceeding 80%, although the ultimate number of studies was limited, pointing to the paucity of studies describing the outcomes of children with LGGs in LMICs. This study underscores the need for more robust data on outcomes in pediatric LGG.

Purpose Two phase II studies assessed the efficacy of vismodegib, a sonic hedgehog (SHH) pathway inhibitor that binds smoothened (SMO), in pediatric and adult recurrent medulloblastoma (MB). Patients and Methods Adult patients enrolled onto PBTC-025B and pediatric patients enrolled onto PBTC-032 were treated with vismodegib (150 to 300 mg/d). Protocol-defined response, which had to be sustained for 8 weeks, was confirmed by central neuroimaging review. Molecular tests to identify patterns of response and insensitivity were performed when tissue was available. Results A total of 31 patients were enrolled onto PBTC-025B, and 12 were enrolled onto PBTC-032. Three patients in PBTC-025B and one in PBTC-032, all with SHH-subgroup MB (SHH-MB), exhibited protocol-defined responses. Progression-free survival (PFS) was longer in those with SHH-MB than in those with non-SHH–MB, and prolonged disease stabilization occurred in 41% of patient cases of SHH-MB. Among those with SHH-MB, loss of heterozygosity of PTCH1 was associated with prolonged PFS, and diffuse staining of P53 was associated with reduced PFS. Whole-exome sequencing identified mutations in SHH genes downstream from SMO in four of four tissue samples from nonresponders and upstream of SMO in two of four patients with favorable responses. Conclusion Vismodegib exhibits activity against adult recurrent SHH-MB but not against recurrent non-SHH–MB. Inadequate accrual of pediatric patients precluded conclusions in this population. Molecular analyses support the hypothesis that SMO inhibitor activity depends on the genomic aberrations within the tumor. Such inhibitors should be advanced in SHH-MB studies; however, molecular and genomic work remains imperative to identify target populations that will truly benefit.

Purpose To determine the developmental trajectory of early cognitive and adaptive skills in young children with retinoblastoma from diagnosis to 5 years of age. Patients and Methods Ninety-four patients with retinoblastoma treated according to an institutional protocol underwent serial assessments of cognitive and adaptive functioning at age 6 months and 1, 2, 3, and 5 years. Data were analyzed by treatment strata, with patients with 13q deletion analyzed separately. Results At baseline, across all patients (except those with 13q deletion), developmental functioning was comparable with the normative mean, with mean scores for all strata within the average range. However, at age 5 years, developmental functioning was in the low average range and significantly below normative means. The trajectories of developmental functioning demonstrated significant decline over time, although this varied by treatment group/strata. Patients treated with enucleation only evidenced the greatest decline in cognitive functioning; significant change was not observed in patients treated with other modalities. Notable declines in parent-reported communication skills were observed in the majority of patients. Patients with 13q deletion evidenced delayed cognitive functioning at baseline, but minimal declines were observed through age 3 years. However, significant decreases in adaptive functioning were demonstrated over time for the 13q deletion subset. Conclusion The declines in functioning observed in this study were unexpected, as was the poorer performance of the enucleation-only group. This highlights the necessity of continuing to assess cognitive functioning in patients with retinoblastoma as they age. Additional research is necessary to determine the long-term trajectory of cognitive development in this population.

Purpose Carboplatin-induced ototoxicity remains poorly defined but is of potential great consequence in children with retinoblastoma. We retrospectively assessed the incidence of ototoxicity and its risk factors in children with retinoblastoma who were treated with carboplatin. Patients and Methods We reviewed the audiologic test results of 60 patients with retinoblastoma who received front-line treatment with systemic carboplatin and vincristine according to the St Jude RET-3 protocol (n = 23) or best clinical management (n = 37). Ototoxicity was evaluated by three different grading systems. Results Twelve patients (20%) developed ototoxicity at some time after treatment initiation; however, ototoxicity resolved in two patients, and thus,10 patients (17%) had sustained hearing loss as documented at their most recent audiologic evaluation. Nine of these 10 patients had grade 3 or 4 ototoxicity, and nine patients were less than 6 months of age at the start of chemotherapy. Age at the start of chemotherapy was the only risk factor identified as a significant predictor of sustained hearing loss. Younger age was associated with an increased incidence of hearing loss. The different ototoxicity grading systems showed good overall agreement in the identification of patients with ototoxicity. Agreement was greatest between the Brock and Children's Cancer Group systems. Conclusion We found that young patients with retinoblastoma who were treated with systemic carboplatin had a higher incidence of ototoxicity than previously reported. Younger patients (< 6 months of age at the start of treatment) were more likely to have ototoxicity than were older patients. Children treated with carboplatin should routinely undergo thorough, long-term audiologic monitoring.

10504 Background: A greater understanding of the Ras-MAP kinase-signaling pathway in pediatric low-grade glioma (LGG) paired with the availability of potent selective inhibitors has enhanced the ability to target this pathway with therapeutic intent. Methods: The PBTC conducted a multi-institutional phase II study (NCT01089101) evaluating selumetinib (AZD6244, ARRY-142886), a MEK I/II inhibitor, in children with recurrent/refractory LGG assigned to 6 strata and treated at 25 mg/m2/dose PO BID for up to two years. Here we present the data from three of these strata. The remaining strata are still accruing patients. Results: Stratum I included children with non-NF-1 and non-optic pathway recurrent/refractory pilocytic astrocytoma (PA) harboring BRAF aberrations (BRAF V600e mutation or the BRAF-KIAA 1549 fusion). Eight of 25 (32%) patients achieved a partial response (PR) with 2-year PFS of 66+/-11%. Two of 7 (29%) patient tumors with a BRAF V600e mutation and 6/18 (33%) with a BRAF KIAA-1549 fusion had a PR. Stratum 3 enrolled NF-1-associated LGG. Tissue for tumor BRAF evaluation was not required for eligibility. Ten of 25 (40%) achieved PR with a 2-year PFS of 96+/-4%. Only one patient progressed while on treatment. Stratum 4 included children with non-NF-1 optic pathway/hypothalamic LGG. Tissue for tumor BRAF evaluation was not required for eligibility. Two of 16 (12.5%) had a PR with a 2-year PFS of 65+/-13%. The BRAF aberration status of the responders in strata 3 and 4 is mostly unknown. All responses were confirmed centrally and seven patients remain on treatment. The most common toxicities were grade 1/2 CPK elevation, diarrhea, hypoalbuminemia, elevated AST and rash. Rare grade 3/4 toxicities included elevated CPK, rash, neutropenia, emesis and paronychia. Conclusions: Selumetinib was effective in treating children with recurrent/refractory LGG, including those with NF-1 associated LGG and PA harboring BRAF V600e mutation or BRAF-KIAA 1549 fusion. Larger prospective studies are necessary to determine the future, specific role of this agent in treating children with LGG harboring specific molecular aberrations. Clinical trial information: NCT01089101.

2035 Background: Almost 80% of adult medulloblastoma are of the SHH subtype. Second line therapy for adult MB is limited; therefore we tested the efficacy of vismodegib, a small molecule inhibitor of Smoothened (SMO) among patients with this disease. Methods: Adult patients with refractory or recurrent MB and who had measureable disease were enrolled on the study. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to stratify patients to Stratum A (non-SHH group); Stratum B (SHH tumors) and Stratum C (indeterminate). All patients were treated with vismodegib at 150 mg/day PO daily. Tumor response, which had to be maintained for 8 weeks to meet protocol definition of sustained response, was assessed using RECIST criteria and central imaging review. Separate but identical Simon 2-stage MinMax designs (α = 0.10) were used in strata A and B to test for evidence that sustained response rates exceeded 5% with 90% power to detect 25% sustained response rates. Thus, 3/20 sustained responses were needed to declare potential activity of vismodegib. Results: 32 patients with a median age of 30 years (range 22.4-51.9) were enrolled on the study [Stratum A (n = 8); Stratum B (n = 20); Stratum C (n = 4)], including 18 males and 14 females. No responses were observed in Strata A or C and the median duration of treatment was 1.5 months (range 0.66-2.33). Three of 20 patients enrolled on Stratum B had sustained responses. The median duration of therapy for Stratum B patients was 2.76 months (range 0.33- 13.61). Six patients were on treatment for ≥6.44 months and 3 remain on treatment after 5.42, 9.34 and 13.61 months. During course 1, 2 patients experienced grade 3 decrease in lymphocytes; 1 experienced a grade 4 thromboembolic event; and 2 experienced grade 3 toxicities (back pain & syncope). During course 2, 3 patients experienced grade 3 toxicities (decrease in lymphocytes; myalgia & seizure). One other patient experienced grade 3 hypophosphatemia in courses 1 and 2. Conclusions: Vismodegib has activity against recurrent or refractory adult ‘SHH-subtype’ medulloblastoma and should be considered as a therapeutic option for newly diagnosed patients with this disease. Clinical trial information: NCT00939484.

9540 Background: There is a need to identify new effective chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of intraocular retinoblastoma (RB). Methods: An institutional protocol (RET5) for the study and treatment of patients with intraocular RB stratified patients into three groups according to laterality and stage of disease. The primary objective of RET5 was to estimate the response of window therapy for patients with bilateral RB in whom at least one eye was Reese-Ellsworth IV or V. Window therapy consisted of 2 courses of vincristine and topotecan (VT with G-CSF support). Patients with ≥ partial response received 3 more courses of VT alternating with 6 courses of vincristine and carboplatin. The topotecan dose started at 3 mg/m2/day, and was adjusted to attain a target systemic exposure of 140 ± 20 ng/ml*hr. Carboplatin was administered to achieve an area under the curve of 6.5 mg/ml/min. The dose of vincristine dose was 0.05 mg/kg if age at diagnosis 12 months...
