Abstract
CLINICAL/METHODICAL ISSUE The Beckwith-Wiedemann spectrum (BWSp) as well as the WT1-related syndromes, Denys-Drash syndrome (DDS) and WAGR spectrum (Wilms tumor, Aniridia, genitourinary anomalies and a range of developmental delays) are tumor predisposition syndromes (TPS) of Wilms tumor (WT). Patients with associated TPS are at higher risk of developing chronic kidney disease and bilateral and metachronous tumors as well as nephrogenic rests. STANDARD RADIOLOGICAL METHODS Standard imaging diagnostics for WT include renal ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In the current renal tumor studies Umbrella SIOP-RTSG 2016 and Randomet 2017, thoracic computed tomography (CT) is also recommended as standard. Positron emission tomography (PET)-CT and whole-body MRI, on the other hand, are not part of routine diagnostics. METHODOLOGICAL INNOVATIONS In recent publications, renal ultrasound is recommended every 3 months until the age of 7 years in cases of clinical suspicion or molecularly proven TPS. PERFORMANCE Patients with TPS and regular renal ultrasounds have smaller tumor volumes and lower tumor stages at WT diagnosis than patients without such a screening. This allows a reduction of therapy intensity and facilitates the performance of nephron sparing surgery, which is prognostically relevant especially in bilateral WT. ACHIEVEMENTS Early diagnosis of WT in the context of TPS ensures the greatest possible preservation of healthy and functional renal tissue. Standardized screening by regular renal ultrasounds should therefore be firmly established in clinical practice. PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS The initial diagnosis of TPS is clinical and requires a skilled and attentive examiner in the presence of sometimes subtle clinical manifestations, especially in the case of BWSp. Clinical diagnosis should be followed by genetic testing, which should then be followed by sonographic screening.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pain chronicity is considered an important prognostic factor for outcome. Here, it was investigated whether pain duration influences outcome when only chronic patients (pain > three months) are considered. Secondary aims were to determine, in patients of any pain duration, how much variance in outcome is explained by pain duration and whether pain duration truly predicts outcomes, i.e. out-of-sample prediction in independent data. METHODS Secondary analysis of a cohort study of neck pain patients. Patients were assessed before start of treatment and at one week, one, three, six- and 12-months follow-up. Outcomes were Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) and percent change of patients' perceived pain intensity, rated on a numerical rating scale (NRS). Regression analyses (linear and logistic) and supervised machine learning were used to test the influence of pain duration on PGIC and percent NRS change at one week, one, three, six- and 12-months follow-up within sample and out-of-sample. Separate analyses were performed for the full sample (n=720) and for chronic patients (n=238) only. RESULTS No relationship between pain duration and outcome was found for chronic patients only. For the full sample, statistical relationships between pain duration and outcomes were observed at all tested follow-up time points. However, the amount of variance in outcome explained by pain duration was low and no out-of-sample prediction was possible. CONCLUSIONS Pain duration did not emerge as an important predictor of outcome in this database of 720 neck pain patients receiving chiropractic treatment.

Abstract
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer with precursor B-cell ALL (pB-ALL) accounting for ~ 85% of the cases. Childhood pB-ALL development is influenced by genetic susceptibility and host immune responses. The role of the intestinal microbiome in leukemogenesis is gaining increasing attention since Vicente-Dueñas' seminal work demonstrated that the gut microbiome is distinct in mice genetically predisposed to ALL and that the alteration of this microbiome by antibiotics is able to trigger pB-ALL in Pax5 heterozygous mice in the absence of infectious stimuli. In this review we provide an overview on novel insights on the role of the microbiome in normal and preleukemic hematopoiesis, inflammation, the effect of dysbiosis on hematopoietic stem cells and the emerging importance of the innate immune responses in the conversion from preleukemic to leukemic state in childhood ALL. Since antibiotics, which represent one of the most widely used medical interventions, alter the gut microbial composition and can cause a state of dysbiosis, this raises exciting epidemiological questions regarding the implications for antibiotic use in early life, especially in infants with a a preleukemic "first hit". Sheading light through a rigorous study on this piece of the puzzle may have broad implications for clinical practice.

Abstract
We report the final measurement of the neutrino oscillation parameters Δm_{32}^{2} and sin^{2}θ_{23} using all data from the MINOS and MINOS+ experiments. These data were collected using a total exposure of 23.76×10^{20} protons on target producing ν_{μ} and ν[over ¯]_{μ} beams and 60.75 kt yr exposure to atmospheric neutrinos. The measurement of the disappearance of ν_{μ} and the appearance of ν_{e} events between the Near and Far detectors yields |Δm_{32}^{2}|=2.40_{-0.09}^{+0.08}(2.45_{-0.08}^{+0.07})×10^{-3} eV^{2} and sin^{2}θ_{23}=0.43_{-0.04}^{+0.20}(0.42_{-0.03}^{+0.07}) at 68% C.L. for normal (inverted) hierarchy.

Abstract
Searches for electron antineutrino, muon neutrino, and muon antineutrino disappearance driven by sterile neutrino mixing have been carried out by the Daya Bay and MINOS+ collaborations. This Letter presents the combined results of these searches, along with exclusion results from the Bugey-3 reactor experiment, framed in a minimally extended four-neutrino scenario. Significantly improved constraints on the θ_{μe} mixing angle are derived that constitute the most constraining limits to date over five orders of magnitude in the mass-squared splitting Δm_{41}^{2}, excluding the 90% C.L. sterile-neutrino parameter space allowed by the LSND and MiniBooNE observations at 90% CL_{s} for Δm_{41}^{2}<13 eV^{2}. Furthermore, the LSND and MiniBooNE 99% C.L. allowed regions are excluded at 99% CL_{s} for Δm_{41}^{2}<1.6 eV^{2}.

FRI0265 IS AN IMPROVEMENT IN SKIN FIBROSIS ASSOCIATED WITH BETTER OUTCOME IN PATIENTS WITH SYSTEMIC SCLEROSIS? A EUSTAR ANALYSIS. Ann Rheum Dis 2020.

Abstract
Background:In previous studies, we showed that in patients with diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dcSSc), worsening of skin fibrosis predicts later decline in lung function and worse survival. However, in many patients, an improvement of skin fibrosis is the natural course of dcSSc, and many current clinical trials are designed to show improvement of skin fibrosis rather than prevention of skin fibrosis progression.Objectives:To investigate whether an improvement in skin fibrosis is associated with less progression of visceral organ involvement and better overall-survival during follow-up.Methods:We evaluated patients from the European Scleroderma Trials and Research Group (EUSTAR) database with diffuse cutaneous systemic (dcSSc), baseline modified Rodnan skin score (mRSS) ≥7, valid mRSS at 12±3 months after baseline and ≥1 follow-up visit. Regression of skin fibrosis was defined as a decrease in mRSS >5 and ≥25% and progression as increase by the respective numbers from baseline to 12±3 months. Outcomes were pulmonary progression, cardiac progression, intestinal progression, new onset of scleroderma renal crisis and all-cause death using recently specified definitions (1). Associations between skin changes and outcomes were evaluated by Kaplan-Meier analysis and multivariable Cox regression.Results:Of 1257 included patients, 282 (22.4%) showed a regression of skin fibrosis, 883 (70.2%) were categorized as stable patients and 92 (7.3%) showed progression of skin fibrosis at 12±3 months. Median long-term follow-up for organ involvement/death was 4.2 years. Cox regression analyses indicated that skin fibrosis regression had a significantly lower probability of later FVC decline ≥10% than non-regressive (stable and progressive) patients when controlled for baseline mRSS (p=0.013). No significant association of skin fibrosis regression was found with other organ manifestations or all-cause death. Conversely, associations of skin fibrosis progression were found for later FVC decline ≥10% with a more significant p-value (p<0.001, Figure 1), and there was also an association with all cause death (p=0.026).Conclusion:Progression of skin fibrosis is stronger associated with organ changes and all-cause death at follow up than improvement of skin fibrosis. These data suggest a prevention of progression paradigm for clinical practice. They also suggest that clinical trials designed for prevention of skin fibrosis progression are more meaningful for long-term outcome of SSc patients than trials designed to show improvement of skin fibrosisReferences:[1]Progressive skin fibrosis is associated with a decline in lung function and worse survival in patients with diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis in the European Scleroderma Trials and Research (EUSTAR) cohort.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To enhance risk stratification for Wilms tumour (WT) in a pre-operative chemotherapy setting, we explored the prognostic significance and optimal age cutoffs in patients treated according to International Society of Paediatric Oncology Renal Tumour Study Group (SIOP-RTSG) protocols. METHODS Patients(6 months-18 years) with unilateral WT were selected from prospective SIOP 93-01 and 2001 studies(1993-2016). Martingale residual analysis was used to explore optimal age cutoffs. Outcome according to age was analyzed by uni- and multivariable analysis, adjusted for sex, biopsy(yes/no), stage, histology and tumour volume at surgery. RESULTS 5631 patients were included; median age was 3.4 years(IQR: 2-5.1). Estimated 5-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) were 85%(95%CI 83.5-85.5) and 93%(95%CI 92.0-93.4). Martingale residual plots detected no optimal age cutoffs. Multivariable analysis showed lower EFS with increasing age(linear trend P<0.001). Using previously described age categories, EFS was lower for patients aged 2-4(HR 1.34, P = 0.02), 4-10(HR 1.83, P<0.0001) and 10-18 years(HR 1.74, P = 0.01) as compared to patients aged 6 months-2 years. OS was lower for patients 4-10 years(HR 1.67, P = 0.01) and 10-18 years(HR 1.87, P = 0.04), but not for 2-4 years(HR 1.29, P = 0.23). Higher stage, histological risk group and tumour volume were independent adverse prognostic factors. CONCLUSION Although optimal age cutoffs could not be identified, we demonstrated the prognostic significance of age as well as previously described cutoffs for EFS (2 and 4 years) and OS (4 years) in children with WT treated with pre-operative chemotherapy. These findings encourage the consideration of age in the design of future SIOP-RTSG protocols.

Abstract
A search for mixing between active neutrinos and light sterile neutrinos has been performed by looking for muon neutrino disappearance in two detectors at baselines of 1.04 and 735 km, using a combined MINOS and MINOS+ exposure of 16.36×10^{20} protons on target. A simultaneous fit to the charged-current muon neutrino and neutral-current neutrino energy spectra in the two detectors yields no evidence for sterile neutrino mixing using a 3+1 model. The most stringent limit to date is set on the mixing parameter sin^{2}θ_{24} for most values of the sterile neutrino mass splitting Δm_{41}^{2}>10^{-4} eV^{2}.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a devastating cancer of childhood and adolescence. METHODS The study included patients between 3 and 20 years with clinically and radiologically confirmed DIPG. Primary endpoint was 6-month progression-free survival (PFS) following administration of nimotuzumab in combination with external beam radiotherapy (RT). Nimotuzumab was administered intravenously at 150 mg/m2 weekly for 12 weeks. Radiotherapy at total dose of 54 Gy was delivered between week 3 and week 9. Response was evaluated based on clinical features and MRI findings according to RECIST criteria at week 12. Thereafter, patients continued to receive nimotuzumab every alternate week until disease progression/unmanageable toxicity. Adverse events (AE) were evaluated according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTC-AE) Version 3.0 (CTC-AE3). RESULTS All 42 patients received at least one dose of nimotuzumab in outpatient settings. Two patients had partial response (4.8%), 27 had stable disease (64.3%), 10 had progressive disease (23.8%) and 3 patients (7.1%) could not be evaluated. The objective response rate (ORR) was 4.8%. Median PFS was 5.8 months and median overall survival (OS) was 9.4 months. Most common drug-related AEs were alopecia (14.3%), vomiting, headache and radiation skin injury (7.1% each). Therapy-related serious adverse events (SAEs) were intra-tumoral bleeding and acute respiratory failure, which were difficult to distinguish from effects of tumor progression. CONCLUSIONS Concomitant treatment with RT and nimotuzumab was feasible in an outpatient setting. The PFS and OS were comparable to results achieved with RT and intensive chemotherapy in hospitalized setting.

Abstract
Summary
Objective:
Chemotherapy planning in pediatric oncology is complex and time-consuming. The correctness of the calculation according to state-of-the-art research is crucial for curing the child. Computer-assistance can be of great value. The objective of our research was to work out a meta-model of chemotherapy planning based on the Unified Modeling Language (UML). The meta-model is used for the development of an application system which serves as a knowledge-acquisition tool for chemotherapy protocols in pediatric oncology as well as for providing protocol-based care.
Methods:
We applied evolutionary prototyping, software re-engineering techniques and grounded theory, a qualitative method in social research. We repeated the following steps several times over the years: Based on a requirements analysis (i) a meta-model was developed or adapted, respectively (ii). The meta-model served as a basis for implementing evolutionary prototypes (iii). Further requirements were identified (i) from clinical use of the systems.
Results:
We developed a comprehensive UML-based meta-model for chemotherapy planning in pediatric oncology (chemoMM). We implemented it and introduced evolutionary prototypes (CATIPO and DOSPO) in several medical centers. Systematic validation of the prototypes enabled us to derive a final meta-model which covers the requirements that have turned out to be necessary in clinical routine.
Conclusions:
We have developed an application system that fits well into clinical routine of pediatric oncology in Germany. Validation results have shown that the implementation of the meta-model chemoMM can adequately support the knowledge acquisition process for protocol-based care.

Abstract
The development and operation of liquid-argon time-projection chambers for neutrino physics has created a need for new approaches to pattern recognition in order to fully exploit the imaging capabilities offered by this technology. Whereas the human brain can excel at identifying features in the recorded events, it is a significant challenge to develop an automated, algorithmic solution. The Pandora Software Development Kit provides functionality to aid the design and implementation of pattern-recognition algorithms. It promotes the use of a multi-algorithm approach to pattern recognition, in which individual algorithms each address a specific task in a particular topology. Many tens of algorithms then carefully build up a picture of the event and, together, provide a robust automated pattern-recognition solution. This paper describes details of the chain of over one hundred Pandora algorithms and tools used to reconstruct cosmic-ray muon and neutrino events in the MicroBooNE detector. Metrics that assess the current pattern-recognition performance are presented for simulated MicroBooNE events, using a selection of final-state event topologies.

Abstract
Congenital mesoblastic nephroma (CMN) is a rare pediatric renal tumor with low malignant potential that most commonly occurs early in infancy. Treatment strategies are based on the few published CMN series, while a significant number of CMN patients have been described in case reports. The aim of this narrative review was to create an up-to-date overview of the literature. Complete surgical removal is curative in most cases. The risk of treatment-related mortality (both surgery- and chemotherapy-related) is relatively high in the first weeks of life, indicating that these young patients deserve special attention with respect to timing and type of treatment.

Abstract
Searches for a light sterile neutrino have been performed independently by the MINOS and the Daya Bay experiments using the muon (anti)neutrino and electron antineutrino disappearance channels, respectively. In this Letter, results from both experiments are combined with those from the Bugey-3 reactor neutrino experiment to constrain oscillations into light sterile neutrinos. The three experiments are sensitive to complementary regions of parameter space, enabling the combined analysis to probe regions allowed by the Liquid Scintillator Neutrino Detector (LSND) and MiniBooNE experiments in a minimally extended four-neutrino flavor framework. Stringent limits on sin^{2}2θ_{μe} are set over 6 orders of magnitude in the sterile mass-squared splitting Δm_{41}^{2}. The sterile-neutrino mixing phase space allowed by the LSND and MiniBooNE experiments is excluded for Δm_{41}^{2}<0.8 eV^{2} at 95% CL_{s}.

Abstract
We report results of a search for oscillations involving a light sterile neutrino over distances of 1.04 and 735 km in a ν_{μ}-dominated beam with a peak energy of 3 GeV. The data, from an exposure of 10.56×10^{20} protons on target, are analyzed using a phenomenological model with one sterile neutrino. We constrain the mixing parameters θ_{24} and Δm_{41}^{2} and set limits on parameters of the four-dimensional Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata matrix, |U_{μ4}|^{2} and |U_{τ4}|^{2}, under the assumption that mixing between ν_{e} and ν_{s} is negligible (|U_{e4}|^{2}=0). No evidence for ν_{μ}→ν_{s} transitions is found and we set a world-leading limit on θ_{24} for values of Δm_{41}^{2}≲1 eV^{2}.

Abstract
We conducted an open-label, prospective, randomized trial to assess the efficacy and safety of RANKL inhibition with denosumab to prevent the loss of bone mineral density (BMD) in the first year after kidney transplantation. Ninety kidney transplant recipients were randomized 1:1 2 weeks after surgery to receive denosumab (60 mg at baseline and 6 months) or no treatment. After 12 months, total lumbar spine areal BMD (aBMD) increased by 4.6% (95% confidence interval [CI] 3.3-5.9%) in 46 patients in the denosumab group and decreased by -0.5% (95% CI -1.8% to 0.9%) in 44 patients in the control group (between-group difference 5.1% [95% CI 3.1-7.0%], p < 0.0001). Denosumab also increased aBMD at the total hip by 1.9% (95% CI, 0.1-3.7%; p = 0.035) over that in the control group at 12 months. High-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography in a subgroup of 24 patients showed that denosumab increased volumetric BMD at the distal tibia and radius (all p < 0.05). Biomarkers of bone turnover (C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen, procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide) markedly decreased with denosumab (all p < 0.0001). Episodes of cystitis and asymptomatic hypocalcemia occurred more often with denosumab, whereas graft function, rate of rejections, and incidence of opportunistic infections were similar. In conclusion, denosumab increased BMD in the first year after kidney transplantation but was associated with more frequent episodes of urinary tract infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Perioperative antimicrobial prophylaxis (PAP) is an important target for internal audits, concerning the judicious use of antibiotics. Paediatric oncology patients face an increased risk of surgical site infection (SSI) after implantation of long term central venous catheters (CVAD). PATIENTS All PATIENTS<18 years admitted to the paediatric oncology centre (POC) with implantation of a CVAD. METHODS Systematic audit in 2 groups: retrospective (Jan 01, 2012 - March 31, 2014) and prospective (April 01, 2014 - March 31, 2015) referring to an internal PAP guideline, invented in Jan 2014. Surveillance of SSI up to 30 days after the operation. RESULTS In total, 97 CVAD implantations were analysed in 89 paediatric oncology patients (Broviac in 94%). The detailed analysis of PAP revealed lower Cefuroxim doses than requested (30 vs. 50 mg/kg). In addition, Cefotaxim was used in 1 case and in 3 cases Clindamycin was given without a medical history of Penicillin hypersensitivity. In the retrospective audit group PAP was administered in 22% for≤24 h); this was the case in 91% of the prospective group (p<0.001). No SSI was detected. CONCLUSION This first comprehensive audit of PAP in a German POC outlines significant opportunities for improvement in terms of correct dosing, correct choice of the antibiotic, and shorter duration of PAP. In addition our results illustrate the challenges of optimising standard workflows in clinical practice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Considering that parental well-being influences the healing process of a child significantly, the relevance of psychosocial care of parents with children with cancer is obvious. Since the parental distress has hardly been studied in Germany, this study examines the burdens of parents of children with cancer. In addition, it provides a diagnostic tool that is used to standardize and facilitate the whole patient management. METHODS n=213 parents have participated in the survey scheduled from September 2013 to September 2014 in pediatric oncology centers. The examination of parental distress was based on five burdens (namely "depression", "anxiety", "somatization", "posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)" and "obsessive-compulsive"). Moreover, confirmatory factor analyzes were calculated which form the basis of the tools. RESULTS 42% of parents show above-average depression scores (z>1), 56,7% above-average anxiety scores, 30,6% above-average obsessive-compulsive scores, 17,4% above-average PTSD scores and 25,9% above-average somatization scores. The confirmatory factor analyzes provide evidence for a dimensional factor model and a second-order factor model. DISCUSSION The results show that parents of children with cancer in Germany represent a risk group in terms of developing their own mental health problems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE For localized prostate cancer, treatment options include external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), radical prostatectomy (RP), and brachytherapy (BT). Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common side-effect. Our aim was to evaluate penile erectile function (EF) before and after BT, EBRT, or RP using a validated self-administered quality-of-life survey from a prospective registry. MATERIAL AND METHODS Analysis included 478 patients undergoing RP (n = 252), EBRT (n = 91), and BT (n = 135) with at least 1 year of follow-up and EF documented using IIEF-5 scores at baseline, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, and annually thereafter. RESULTS Differences among treatments were most pronounced among patients with no or mild initial ED (IIEF-5 ≥ 17). Overall, corrected for baseline EF and age, BT was associated with higher IIEF-5 scores than RP (+ 7.8 IIEF-5 score) or EBRT (+ 3.1 IIEF-5 score). EBRT was associated with better IIEF-5 scores than RP (+ 4.7 IIEF-5 score). In patients undergoing EBRT or RP with bilateral nerve sparing (NS), recovery of EF was observed and during follow-up, the differences to BT were not statistically significant. Overall age had a negative impact on EF preservation (corrected for baseline IIEF). CONCLUSION In our series, EF was adversely affected by each treatment modality. Considered overall, BT provided the best EF preservation in comparison to EBRT or RP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Central nervous system (CNS) and non-CNS embryonal tumors occur principally in children and are rarely seen in adults. The incidence rates for rare entities such as atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumors (AT/RT) or primitive neuroectodermal tumors in the CNS are rarely published. Incidence rates for certain subgroups, such as hepatoblastomas, have been increasing in some countries. METHODS Data of 8337 embryonal tumors, registered in children (0-14 years) between 1991 and 2012 (for AT/RT 2000-2012) in the population-based German Childhood Cancer Registry with complete national coverage were analyzed for incidence rates, time trends, and survival. RESULTS For most entities, the incidence rates were the highest for children <1 year. An important exception was medulloblastomas, which occurred mainly in 1- to 9-year-olds. Neuroblastomas and ganglioneuroblastomas as well as Wilms tumors (nephroblastomas) had the highest age standardized incidence rates (13.7 and 9.4 per million, respectively). A statistically significant increasing trend for hepatoblastomas (annual average percent change 4.6%) was detected. The survival probabilities varied between the diagnostic groups: primitive neuroectodermal tumors and AT/RT had the lowest and retinoblastomas the highest. The survival was dependent on the age at diagnosis, the most extreme examples being neuroblastomas, for which the survival probability declined steeply for children ≥1 year and medulloblastomas, for which the highest survival was seen for 10- to 14-year-olds. CONCLUSIONS This study presents a comprehensive overview of pediatric embryonal tumors from a well-established, complete nationwide cancer registry. Significant increasing trend for hepatoblastomas was detected for the first time in Europe.

Abstract
The results of our third trial on epicutaneous allergen-specific immunotherapy (EPIT) will be presented and discussed in the context of our previous trials. This monocentric, placebo-controlled, double-blind phase I/IIa trial included 98 patients with grass pollen rhinoconjunctivitis. Prior to the pollen season 2009, patients received six patches (allergen extract: n = 48; placebo: n = 50) with weekly intervals, administered onto tape-stripped skin. Allergen EPIT produced a median symptom improvement of 48% in 2009 and 40% in the treatment-free follow-up year 2010 as compared to 10% and 15% improvement after placebo EPIT (P = 0.003). After allergen EPIT but not placebo EPIT, conjunctival allergen reactivity was significantly decreased and allergen-specific IgG4 responses were significantly elevated (P < 0.001). In conclusion, our three EPIT trials found that allergen EPIT can ameliorate hay fever symptoms. Overall, treatment efficacy appears to be determined by the allergen dose. Local side-effects are determined by the duration of patch administration, while risk of systemic allergic side-effects is related to the degree of stratum corneum disruption.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The outcome in children and adolescents with high-risk (HR) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is still unsatisfactory. Therefore, in study AML-BFM 2004 we aimed to improve outcome of HR-patients by adding moderately dosed 2-Chloro-2-Deoxyadenosine (2-CDA) to the respective consolidation treatment backbone without increasing toxicity. The aim was to improve prognosis especially in FAB M4/M5/MLL patients, who represent the largest subgroup of HR patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS In total, 343 children and adolescents with HR-AML were randomized to receive or not 2-CDA (6 mg/m²/d, days 1, 3) in combination with cytarabine/idarubicine (AI=500 mg/m² cytarabine 5 days continuous infusion plus 7 mg/m²/d idarubicin, days 3 and 5). RESULTS RESULTS for patients of the AI/2-CDA arm (n=168) vs. the AI-arm (n=175) were similar: 5-year overall survival 68±4 vs. 72±4%, plogrank=0.38, event-free survival 53±4 vs. 49±4%, plogrank=0.77; cumulative incidence of relapse at 5 years: 35±4 vs. 37±4%, p(Gray)=0.89. RESULTS in patients with MLL rearrangement or FAB M4/M5 were also similar in the treatment groups. In addition, toxicities did not differ between the two arms. CONCLUSION We conclude that additional, moderate dose 2-CDA does not improve prognosis in HR-patients when given during consolidation treatment. Its effect might be too low in this multidrug regimen, where the strongest effects are achieved during induction, or the chosen dose of 2-CDA might have been too low.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In a prospective multicentre study of bloodstream infection (BSI) from November 01, 2007 to July 31, 2010, seven paediatric cancer centres (PCC) from Germany and one from Switzerland included 770 paediatric cancer patients (58% males; median age 8.3 years, interquartile range (IQR) 3.8-14.8 years) comprising 153,193 individual days of surveillance (in- and outpatient days during intensive treatment). Broviac catheters were used in 63% of all patients and Ports in 20%. One hundred forty-two patients (18%; 95% CI 16 to 21%) experienced at least one BSI (179 BSIs in total; bacteraemia 70%, bacterial sepsis 27%, candidaemia 2%). In 57%, the BSI occurred in inpatients, in 79% after conventional chemotherapy. Only 56 % of the patients showed neutropenia at BSI onset. Eventually, patients with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) or acute myeloblastic leukaemia (AML), relapsed malignancy and patients with a Broviac faced an increased risk of BSI in the multivariate analysis. Relapsed malignancy (16%) was an independent risk factor for all BSI and for Gram-positive BSI. CONCLUSION This study confirms relapsed malignancy as an independent risk factor for BSIs in paediatric cancer patients. On a unit level, data on BSIs in this high-risk population derived from prospective surveillance are not only mandatory to decide on empiric antimicrobial treatment but also beneficial in planning and evaluating preventive bundles. WHAT IS KNOWN • Paediatric cancer patients face an increased risk of nosocomial bloodstream infections (BSIs). • In most cases, these BSIs are associated with the use of a long-term central venous catheter (Broviac, Port), severe and prolonged immunosuppression (e.g. neutropenia) and other chemotherapy-induced alterations of host defence mechanisms (e.g. mucositis). What is New: • This study is the first multicentre study confirming relapsed malignancy as an independent risk factor for BSIs in paediatric cancer patients. • It describes the epidemiology of nosocomial BSI in paediatric cancer patients mainly outside the stem cell transplantation setting during conventional intensive therapy and argues for prospective surveillance programmes to target and evaluate preventive bundle interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Topotecan has been variably incorporated in the treatment of patients with relapsed Wilms tumour (WT) who failed initial treatment with three or more effective drugs. Our objective was to describe outcome and to retrospectively investigate the potential role of topotecan in relapsed WT patients. METHODS Children who were treated with topotecan as part of their chemotherapeutic regimens for relapsed WT were identified and included in our retrospective study. Patient charts were reviewed for general patient characteristics, histology and stage at initial diagnosis, number and type of relapse, salvage treatment schedules, toxicity, response to treatment and outcome. RESULTS From 2000 to 2012, 30 children (median age at relapse 5.5 years, range 1.6-14.5 years) were identified to have received topotecan as part of their salvage regimens (primary progressive disease n = 3, first, second and third relapse n = 13, 9 and 2 respectively, partial response n = 3). Topotecan was administered as a single agent (12 patients) or in combination with other drugs (18 patients). Sixteen patients had high-risk histology according to the SIOP classification, 15 died within 12 months because of progressive disease. Fourteen patients had SIOP intermediate-risk histology of which four patients displayed objective responses to topotecan. Overall, 6 out of 14 intermediate-risk patients survived (median follow up of 6 years), however, three of whom (stage V) had bilateral nephrectomy after topotecan treatment. CONCLUSIONS Topotecan does not seem to show effectiveness in the treatment of relapsed WT patients with initial high-risk histology. In patients with intermediate-risk histology, the role of topotecan might deserve further attention, to prove its efficacy.

Abstract
Blastemal-type Wilms tumour (BT-WT) has been identified as a high risk histological subgroup in WT assessed after pre-nephrectomy chemotherapy in trials of the International Society of Paediatric Oncology (SIOP) Renal Tumour Study Group. Therefore, in SIOPWT2001, post-operative chemotherapy for BT-WT was intensified aiming to improve survival. Survival analysis of all unilateral BT-WT patients (SIOPWT2001) (n=238), was compared with historical BT-WT controls (SIOP93-01) (n=113). 351/4061 (8.6%) unilateral non-metastatic BT-WT patients (SIOP93-01/SIOPWT2001) were studied. Median age at diagnosis was 43 months (Inter Quartile Range (IQR) 24-68 months), stages: I (n=140, 40%), II (n=106, 30%), III (n=105, 30%). BT-WTs were higher staged, showed greater volume decrease after pre-operative chemotherapy and were diagnosed at an older median age compared to other WT patients. Patient characteristics did not differ substantially between SIOP93-01 and SIOPWT2001. Univariate analysis showed a 5-year event-free survival (EFS) of 80% (95% confidence interval (CI): 75-86%) (SIOPWT2001) compared to 67% in SIOP93-01 (95% CI: 59-76%; p=0.006) and overall survival (OS) of 88% (95% CI: 83-93%) (SIOPWT2001) compared to 84% (95% CI: 77-91%; p=0.4) in SIOP93-01. 95% of relapses were distant metastases (SIOP93-01/SIOPWT2001). Treatment protocol, age at diagnosis, tumour stage (III versus I/II) and volume (at surgery), were prognostic variables for EFS (uni- and multivariate Cox regression analysis). Independent prognosticators for OS were age at diagnosis, tumour stage and volume (at surgery). The most significant survival benefit of intensified treatment, was observed in Stage I (EFS 96% in SIOPWT2001 (OS 100%), 71% in SIOP93-01 (OS 90%)). BT-WT derived benefits from more intensive chemotherapy as reflected by a reduction in relapse risk. However, the benefit of the more intensive chemotherapy to improve OS was only observed in stage I BT-WTs, by adding doxorubicin.

Abstract
Secure access to patient data is becoming of increasing importance, as medical informatics grows in significance, to both assist with population health studies, and patient specific medicine in support of treatment. However, assembling the many different types of data emanating from the clinic is in itself a difficulty, and doing so across national borders compounds the problem. In this paper we present our solution: an easy to use distributed informatics platform embedding a state of the art data warehouse incorporating a secure pseudonymisation system protecting access to personal healthcare data. Using this system, a whole range of patient derived data, from genomics to imaging to clinical records, can be assembled and linked, and then connected with analytics tools that help us to understand the data. Research performed in this environment will have immediate clinical impact for personalised patient healthcare.

Abstract
Background: Clear cell sarcoma of the kidney (CCSK) is an uncommon paediatric renal tumour. Relapses occur in about 15% of the patients. Since detailed clinical information on relapsed CCSK is scarce, the current study aims to describe outcome of patients with relapsed CCSK treated according to recent European protocols. Patients and methods: We analysed prospectively collected data of all CCSK patients who developed a relapse after complete remission at the end of primary treatment, entered onto SIOP and AIEOP trials between 1992 and 2012. Results: Thirty-seven of 237 CCSK patients (16%) treated according to SIOP and AIEOP protocols developed a relapse. Median time from initial diagnosis to relapse was 17 months (range, 5.5 months - 6.6 years). Thirt-five out of thirty-seven relapses (95%) were metastatic; the most common sites of relapse were the brain (n=13), lungs (n=7) and bone (n=5). Relapse treatment consisted of chemotherapy (n=30), surgery (n=19) and/or radiotherapy (n=18), followed by high-dose chemotherapy and autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) in 14 patients. Twenty-two out of thirty-seven patients (59%) achieved a second complete remission (CR); 15 of whom (68%) developed a second relapse. Five-year event-free survival (EFS) after relapse was 18% (95% CI: 4%–32%), and 5-year overall survival (OS) was 26% (95% CI: 10%–42%). Conclusions: In this largest series of relapsed CCSK patients ever described, overall outcome is poor. Most relapses are metastatic and brain relapses are more common than previously recognised. Intensive treatment aiming for local control, followed by high dose chemotherapy and ABMT, seems to be of benefit to enhance survival. Novel development of targeted therapy is urgently required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The statistical analysis of nasal provocation tests is very complex. We compared the conventional analysis with the maximally selected test statistics and the hierarchical ordered logistic model. METHODS We re-analyzed data from a trial with 112 patients suffering from grass pollen allergy. The patients had been randomized to receive either intralymphatic immunotherapy (ILIT) or subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT). RESULTS The conventional analysis indicated that the logarithmized ratio between the pre- and the post-treatment threshold concentration was significantly lower for ILIT than for SCIT. The maximally selected test statistics was used to test different threshold symptom scores that would imply positive clinical symptoms at the given allergen concentration. A threshold score of 3 maximised the difference in improvement between the ILIT and the SCIT groups. The hierarchical ordered logistic model does not take threshold allergen concentrations as the basis for analysis, but the single scores measured at each concentration. This approach simultaneously considers the treatment effect (ILIT versus SCIT), the time effect (pre- versus post-treatment), and the dose effect (different allergen concentrations). The hierarchical ordered logistic model revealed that the clinical improvement was greater after ILIT than after SCIT. CONCLUSION As the choice of method can affect the outcome, guidelines for analysis are highly needed.
