p-values determined by the Fisher's exact test; comparison of local vs mixed vs metastatic pattern of recurrence.
Note: Two patients in Validation Cohort 1 received focal RT with chemotherapy, one SHH with a metastatic recurrence and one Group 4 with a metastatic recurrence. Both cases are included in the chemotherapy only category. CSI=Craniospinal Irradiation
