Patient KK was a 68-yr-old female who was found to have a large, left-sided insular mass that was shown to be an oligodendroglioma WHO grade II, positive for codeletion 1p/19q and IDH1 mutant on biopsy.
Patients with IDH wild type anaplastic astrocytoma and glioblastoma had a significantly shorter median PFS (19.3 months vs. NR, p = 0.001) and median OS (43.5 months vs NR, p = 0.007) than those with IDH mutated grade III anaplastic astrocytoma and oligodendroglioma.
A total of 135 cases consisted of 38 IDH-mutant [17 astrocytoma (AC), 13 oligodendroglioma (OD) and eight glioblastoma (GBM)], 87 IDH-wildtype (six AC, three OD and 78 GBM), and 10 diffuse midline glioma, H3K27M-mutant.
The reported two cases were initially diagnosed as oligodendroglioma with 1p/19q-codeletion and mutation of <i>isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1)</i>-R132H.
Gliomas were assigned to one of the three molecular groups: Group O (IDH-mutant, 1p/19q co-deleted oligodendrogliomas, n = 95), Group A (IDH-mutant, ATRX inactivated astrocytomas, n = 175) and Group G (IDH wild-type, GBM-like, n = 46).
The DSC-MRI procedure may provide insight into the IDH1/2 mutation and ATRX expression status and MGMT methylation profile of diffuse glioma; however, taking integrated oligodendroglioma into account limits the diagnostic performance of rCBV in non-invasively predicting the molecular subtype.
We excluded glioblastoma-like tumors (7a10d subgroup) and derived a gene expression signature distinguishing histologically classified oligodendrogliomas with concurrent 1p/19q co-deletion and IDH mutation (1p/19q subgroup) from those with predominant IDH mutation alone (IDHme subgroup).
Trisomy of chromosome 7 in IDH mutated astrocytoma and PTEN mutations in IDH mutated oligodendroglioma are potential markers of poor prognosis, but require confirmation in larger series.
Furthermore, identification of a common IDH1 mutation in enchondroma and oligodendroglioma-matched pair specimens supports the hypothesis that IDH1/2 mosaicism initiates tumorigenesis.
In 2 cases, there was divergent evolution of IDH1-mutated and 1p/19q-codeleted oligodendroglioma and IDH1-mutated and 1p/19q-intact diffuse astrocytoma, occurring synchronously in one case and metachronously in a second.
Secondly, when analyzed in molecular subgroups, we were similarly unable to detect a significant PFS or OS benefit in IDH MT/codel subgroup (N = 269; HR 1.47; 95% CI 0.92-2.34; P = 0.11 and HR 1.54; 95% CI 0.78-3.05; P = 0.21, respectively), oligodendroglioma with IDH MT/codel subgroup (N = 233; HR 1.33; 95% CI 0.79-2.21; P = 0.28 and HR 1.16; 95% CI 0.53-2.54; P = 0.70, respectively) or other relevant subgroups.
Sixty-five patients with 2007 histological designations (astrocytomas and oligodendrogliomas), 1p/19q status (+ = intact/- = co-deleted), and IDH1 mutation status (MUT/WT) were included in this study.
The 25th, 50th, 75th, and 90th percentiles of MK and average MK showed significant differences between IDH1/2<sub>wild-type</sub> gliomas, IDH1/2<sub>mutated</sub> gliomas, and oligodendrogliomas with chromosome 1p/19q loss of heterozygosity and IDH1/2<sub>mutation</sub> (p<0.001).
Non-canonical IDH mutations were identified in 13/52 (25.0%) grade II gliomas (astrocytomas: 8/31, 25.8%; oligodendrogliomas: 5/21, 23.8%) and in 5/40 (12.5%) grade III gliomas (astrocytomas: 3/25, 12.0%; oligodendrogliomas: 2/15, 13.3%).
In the present study we searched for FGFR1-ITD by droplet digital PCR (DDPCR™) and for FGFR1 point mutations by HRM-sequencing in a series of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) LGNTs including 12 DNT, 2 oligodendrogliomas lacking IDH mutation and 1p/19q co- deletion (pediatric-type oligodendrogliomas; PTOs), 3 pediatric diffuse astrocytomas (PDAs), 14 gangliogliomas (GGs) and 5 pilocytic astrocytomas (PAs).
Triple-positive (IDH1 and TERT mutation with 1p19q codeletion) glioma tended to be oligodendroglioma present with much better clinical outcome compared to TERT mutation only group who is glioblastoma inclined (median overall survival 39 months VS 18 months).
Distinct spectral profiles were observed for lesions with IDH-mutated genotypes, between astrocytoma and oligodendroglioma histologies, as well as for tumors that had undergone MP.
The NGS approach was effective in reclassifying 36 oligoastrocytomas as 30 astrocytomas (20 IDH1/2 mutant and 10 IDH1/2 wild type) and 6 oligodendrogliomas, and 1 oligodendroglioma as an astrocytoma (IDH1/2 mutant).
Our data reveal that the methylation profiles in 23 of the 25 GC tumors corresponded to either IDH mutant astrocytoma (n = 6), IDH mutant and 1p/19q codeleted oligodendroglioma (n = 5), or IDH wild-type glioblastoma including various molecular subgroups, i.e., H3F3A-G34 mutant (n = 1), receptor tyrosine kinase 1 (RTK1, n = 4), receptor tyrosine kinase 2 (classic) (RTK2, n = 2) or mesenchymal (n = 5) glioblastoma groups.
