Abstract
PURPOSE: To describe the demographic and clinical features and outcomes for children and adolescents with primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: A retrospective series of children and adolescents with PCNSL was assembled from 10 cancer centers in 3 countries. RESULTS: Twenty-nine patients with a median age of 14 years were identified. Sixteen (55%) had Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) of 1 or greater. Frontline therapy consisted of chemotherapy only in 20 patients (69%), while 9 (31%) had chemotherapy plus cranial radiotherapy. Most patients received methotrexate (MTX)-based regimens. Overall response rate was 86% (complete remission 69%, partial remission 17%). The 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 61% and 86%, respectively; the 3-year OS was 82%. Univariate analyses were conducted for age (≤ 14 vs. >14 years), PS (0 or 1 vs. >1), deep brain lesions, MTX dose, primary treatment with chemotherapy alone, intrathecal chemotherapy, and high-dose therapy. Primary treatment with chemotherapy alone was associated with better overall response rates with an odds ratio (OR) of 0.125 (P = 0.02). There was a marginally significant relationship between higher doses of MTX and response (OR = 1.5, P = 0.06). ECOG-PS of 0 to 1 was the only factor associated with better outcome with hazard ratios of 0.136 (P = 0.017) and 0.073 (P = 0.033) for PFS and OS, respectively. CONCLUSION: This is the largest series collected of pediatric PCNSL. The outcome of children and adolescents seems to be better than in adults. PS of 0 to 1 is associated with better survival.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
