At risk by treatment exposure as defined in the COG Guidelines, see supplemental Table 1 for detailed exposures and potential late effects evaluated by risk-based screening.

b

None of the cases were CTCAE v.4 Grade 3-4

c

20.0% were CTCAE v.4 Grade 3-4

d

All cases were CTCAE v.4 Grade 3-4

e

15.2% were CTCAE v.4 Grade 3-4

CTCAE v.4 percentages includes only those who fulfill criteria for “at risk” as defined by COG Guidelines.
