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.
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.
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.
The reported two cases were initially diagnosed as oligodendroglioma with 1p/19q-codeletion and mutation of <i>isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1)</i>-R132H.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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).
One hundred twenty-six tumors could be classified: 20 as type II (IDH mutation [mut], "astrocytoma"), 49 as type I (1p/19q codeletion, "oligodendroglioma"), 55 as type III (7+/10q- or TERTmut and 1p/19q intact, "glioblastoma"), and 2 as childhood glioblastoma (H3F3Amut), leaving 7 unclassified (total 91% classified).
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.
Three GBM-O samples had IDH1 (p.R132H) mutations; two of these also demonstrated 1p/19q co-deletion and had a proneural transcriptional profile, a molecular signature characteristic of oligodendroglioma.
We analyzed markers, including IDH mutation(IDHmut), 1p19q codeletion(1p19qcodel), ATRX expression loss(ATRX loss) and p53 overexpression, and outcomes in 159 patients with WHO grade II oligodendroglioma, oligoastrocytoma, and astrocytoma (2003-2012).
A better prognosis was significantly associated with combined IDH1 mutation and MGMT methylation status (both positive vs both negative, HR 0.079 [95% CI 0.008-0.579], p=0.012), as well as histology (OG vs DA and OA, HR 0.158 [95% CI 0.022-0.674], p=0.011) and tumor size (<6 cm vs ≥6 cm, HR 0.120 [95% CI 0.017-0.595], p=0.008).
We evaluated nuclear cMYC protein levels and IDH1 (R132H) by immunohistochemistry in patients with oligodendroglioma/oligoastrocytomas (n = 20), astrocytomas (grade II) (n = 19), anaplastic astrocytomas (n = 21) or glioblastomas (n = 111).
The oligodendroglioma model presented here is a valuable model for further functional elucidation of the effects of IDH1 mutations on tumor metabolism and may aid in the rational development of novel therapeutic strategies for the large subgroup of gliomas carrying IDH1 mutations.
