Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Chemotherapy
Conventional chemotherapy: carboplatin injection (160 mg/m²/day by infusion over one hour in 5 % glucose saline) administered from D1 to D5 and from D22 to D26. Etoposide injection (100 mg/m²/day by infusion over one hour in 5 % glucose saline) administered from D1 to D5 and from D22 to D26. Double intensification by high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous PBSC rescue: thiotepa injection (200 mg/m²/day as an infusion over one hour in 200 ml/m² of 5 % GS) administered from D42 to D44 and from D63 to D65. Autologous PBSC rescue on D47 and D68. Surgical resection of any tumor residue. Irradiation of the primary tumor site and cerebrospinal axis: 54 Gy to primary tumor, 36 Gy to cerebrospinal axis. Maintenance treatment: Temozolomide 150 mg/m²/day orally for 5 days every 28 days, from 1 month after the end of irradiation. 6 cycles planned. Duration of treatment: 13 months

    • Anaplastic, large cell medulloblastoma whatever the risk criteria (localized or metastatic, complete or incomplete resection).
    • Medulloblastoma with amplification of c-myc or N-myc whatever the risk criteria (local or metastatic, complete or incomplete resection).
    • Local and/or metastatic sustentorial PNET.
  2. Age at diagnosis of the medulloblastoma of more than 5 years and less than 20 years.
  3. Age at diagnosis of S-PNET of more than 10 years and less than 20 years.
  4. Nutritional and general status compatible with treatment, Lansky score > 60.
