    Introduction. We present the case of a child with recurrent atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT) who underwent clinically integrated molecular sequencing that revealed a novel loss-of-function mutation in CDKN1C alongside hallmark loss of SMARCB1. Case Presentation. A 6-week-old African-American female presented with respiratory distress, irritability, lethargy, and bulging fontanelle. MRI revealed a right posterior fossa mass with obstructive hydrocephalus. 8 months after gross tumor resection she returned with a recurrent right frontal lobe lesion and underwent palliative subtotal resection. Deviation From the Expected. In addition to biallelic loss of SMARCB1, a mutation in CDKN1C was reported and confirmed by immunohistochemistry and whole-exome and transcriptome sequencing in AT/RT. Discussion. Alisertib, an Aurora Kinase A (AURKA) inhibitor, was chosen for our patient due to previously published efficacy of the single-agent therapy in patients with recurrent AT/RT. Conclusion. Sequencing of the recurrent AT/RT revealed a novel mutation in CDKN1C could provide AT/RT new pathways for growth in addition to loss of AURKA regulation. Literature review strengthens evidence of a central upstream regulator, LIN28B, for both CDKN1C and AURKA. Further clarification of this oncogenic pathway in AT/RT should enable the development of improved targeted therapies in this patient population and provide perspective for future cancer research and therapies.

    "Three decades of conversations with Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, provocateur, artist, gender revolutionary and leader of the bands Throbbing Gristle, Psychic TV and more Published for legendary artist and musician Genesis Breyer P-Orridge’s 70th birthday in 2020, Sacred Intent gathers conversations between Breyer P-Orridge and his friend and collaborator, the Swedish author Carl Abrahamsson. From the first 1986 fanzine-based interview about current projects, philosophical insights, magical workings, international travels, art theory and gender revolutions, to 2019’s thoughts on life and death in the the shadow of battling leukaemia, Sacred Intent is a unique journey in which the art of conversation blooms to the highest degree." -- Distributor's website
