From date on treatment until date of first event (progression, second malignancy or death) or until date of last contact, assessed up to 10 years

What was measured

EFS was measured from the date of initial treatment to the earliest date of disease progression, second malignancy or death for patients who fail; and to the date of last contact for patients who remain at risk for failure. 1-year EFS estimates are reported by risk group. EFS was compared to St. Jude historical cohorts by risk group using hazard ratios with 95% confidence intervals.

Analysis population: Eligible medulloblastoma patients who received any methotrexate were included in this analysis. Hazard ratios with 95% confidence intervals are reported and compare SJYC07 patients to historical controls in each risk group. As there were too few low-risk historical controls, no hazard ratio is included for the low-risk group.

Groups in this outcome

SJYC07 Low-risk Medulloblastoma Patients

Medulloblastoma patients \<3 years of age; histological diagnosis of desmoplastic nodular (DN)/medulloblastoma with extensive nodularity (MBEN); no evidence of metastatic disease (M0); and a surgical gross total resection (GTR) or near total resection (NTR) defined as residual tumor or imaging abnormality (not definite for residual tumor) with a size of less than 1 cm\^2 on post-op computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) \[R0\])

SJYC07 Intermediate-risk Medulloblastoma Patients

SJYC07 medulloblastoma patients \<3 years of age, no evidence of metastatic disease (M0), and either R0 resection with any other medullo histology other than histological diagnosis of desmoplastic nodular (DN)/medulloblastoma with extensive nodularity (MBEN) (i.e., classic or large cell anaplastic (LCA)), or with a subtotal resection (with a residual tumor or imaging abnormality with a size of \>1 cm\^2 on post-op imaging (R+), and DN/MBEN). Children 3-5 years of age were also included in this group

SJYC07 High-risk Medulloblastoma Patients

SJYC07 medulloblastoma patients \<3 years of age with evidence of metastatic disease
