With the limited yield of clinical factors to predict the outcome of biologic treatments, studies have focused on identifying genetic alterations and circulating or tissue biomarkers to identify patients who are likely to respond to therapy. In this review, we examine the current knowledge and status of genetic, expression biomarkers, and microbiome predictors. The search for genetic predictors has yielded many genetic loci variants, but few were reproducible. Expression studies of putative biomarkers show promising results, especially with TREM1, oncostatin M and TNF biomarkers, but confirmatory studies are warranted. Finally, the microbiome is emerging as an important player with specific taxa and functional pathways differentially abundant and enriched in responders versus non-responders to certain biologics. Integrating different factors into a robust predictive model, which is both reproducible, accurate and affordable, remains the main challenge before these individualized strategies can reach clinical use. Extracranial rhabdoid tumours are rare, highly aggressive malignancies primarily affecting young children. The EU-RHAB registry was initiated in 2009 to prospectively collect data of rhabdoid tumour patients treated according to the EU-RHAB therapeutic framework. We evaluated 100 patients recruited within EU-RHAB (2009-2018). Tumours and matching blood samples were examined for SMARCB1 mutations by sequencing and cytogenetics. A total of 70 patients presented with extracranial, extrarenal tumours (eMRT) and 30 with renal rhabdoid tumours (RTK). Nine patients demonstrated synchronous tumours. Distant metastases at diagnosis (M+) were present in 35% (35/100), localised disease (M0) with(LN+) and without (LN-) loco-regional lymph node involvement in 65% (65/100).
