Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate safety of standard and high-dose chemotherapy associated with craniospinal irradiation in pediatric and young adult patients with metastatic MB or other embryonal tumours.;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of treatment in terms of progression-free survival, overall survival and responses to therapy. To evaluate neuropsychological and psychological aspects, endocrinological and visual sequelae.;Primary end point(s): - Percentage of subjects with neurological symptoms >=G3, evaluated according to CTCAE 4.0, not present at the beginning of postoperative chemoradiotherapy and not related to the recurrence / progression of the disease - Percentage of subjects with SAE - Percentage of subjects with SAE leading to withdrawal from the study - Mortality due to adverse events;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 24 months from the end of the treatment (end of follow-up)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - Progression free survival (PFS) defined as time frame between the date of the enrolment and the date tumour progression ; Overall survival (OS) defined as time frame between the date of the enrolment and the death to any cause; Difference in scoring for neuropsychological (Griffiths, Rey, BVN tests, educational learning) and psycological (PedsQL, CBCL) scales; Rate of treatment response: - CR, complete response the complete disappearance of all radiographic and/or cytological evidence of tumor; - PR, partial response >= 50% reduction in the product of the perpendicular diameters of the tumor with negative cytology - SD, stable disease = 25% increase in tumor size or the appearance of tumor in previously uninvolved areas; Incidence of endocrinological and visual sequelae;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: MRI scan assessment; MRI scan assessment; Before radiotherapy, at the end of the chemioterapy and at the end of the follow-up; After induction phase and at the end of the treatment; 24 months from the end of the treatment (end of follow-up)
