We examined medical records of 162 patients collected from 10 participating centers in Korea. The patients\u2019 clinical, radiological, molecular, and histopathologic characteristics, and treatment responses were evaluated to identify the prognosticators for DIPG and estimate survival outcomes.ResultsThe median follow-up period was 10.8 months (interquartile range, 7.5 to 18.1). The 1- and 2-year overall survival (OS) rates were 53.5% and 19.0%, respectively, with a median OS of 13.1 months. Long-term survival rate (\u2265 2 years) was 16.7%, and median OS was 43.6 months. Age (&lt; 10 years), poor performance status, treatment before 2010, and post-radiotherapy necrosis were independently associated with poor OS in multivariate analysis. In patients with increased post-radiotherapy necrosis, the median OS estimates were 13.3 months and 11.4 months with and without bevacizumab, respectively (p=0.138).ConclusionTherapeutic strategy for DIPG has remained unchanged over time, and the associated prognosis remains poor. Our findings suggest that appropriate efforts are needed to reduce the occurrence of post-radiotherapy necrosis. Further well-designed clinical trials are recommended to improve the poor prognosis observed in DIPG patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4143\/crt.2021.1514","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,3]],"date-time":"2022-03-03T23:50:27Z","timestamp":1646351427000},"page":"41-49","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4143\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Suggestions
