Abstract

BACKGROUND: Constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) is a rare disorder resulting from biallelic germline pathogenic variants in mismatch repair genes. This study described the molecular profile of two metachronous brain tumors and a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) from a Brazilian child with CMMRD. METHODS: After PDX development, methylation array, whole exome sequencing, and NanoString…
