Abstract
Rhabdoid tumor predisposition syndrome (RTPS) is a rare disorder associated with malignant rhabdoid tumor of the kidney (RTK), atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor (ATRT), and/or other extracranial, extrarenal rhabdoid tumors (EERT), and these pediatric malignancies are difficult to treat. Presently, most of the information regarding clinical manifestations, treatment, and outcomes of rhabdoid tumors comes from large data registries and case series. Our current understanding of treatments for patients with rhabdoid tumors may inform how we approach patients with RTPS. In this manuscript, we review the genetic and clinical features of RTPS and, using known registry data and clinical reports, review associated tumor types ATRT, RTK, and EERT, closing with potential new approaches to treatment. We propose collaborative international efforts to study the use of SMARC (SWI/SNF-related, matrix-associated, actin-dependent regulator of chromatin)-targeting agents, high-dose consolidative therapy, and age-based irradiation of disease sites in RTPS.
