Project description:BackgroundWe quantified the spontaneous imaging growth rate of oligodendrogliomas. We assessed whether (i) it discriminates between World Health Organization (WHO) grade II and grade III oligodendrogliomas, and (ii) grade III oligodendrogliomas with neo-angiogenesis are associated with more fast growth rates (≥8 mm/y).MethodsThis work employed a retrospective bicentric cohort study (2010-2016) of adult patients harboring a newly diagnosed supratentorial oligodendroglioma, isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutant and 1p/19q codeleted (WHO 2016 classification), with a minimum of 2 available MRIs before any treatment (minimum 6-week interval) to measure the spontaneous tumor growth rate.ResultsWe included 108 patients (age 44.7 ± 14.1 y, 60 males). The tumor growth rate was higher in grade III oligodendrogliomas with neo-angiogenesis (n = 37, median 10.4 mm/y, mean 10.0 ± 6.9) than in grade III oligodendrogliomas with increased mitosis count only (cutoff ≥6 mitoses, n = 18, median 3.9 mm/y, mean 4.5 ± 3.2; P = 0.004), and higher than in grade II oligodendrogliomas (n = 53, median 2.3 mm/y, mean 2.8 ± 2.2; P < 0.001). There was increased prevalence of fast tumor growth rates in grade III oligodendrogliomas with neo-angiogenesis (54.1%) compared with grade III oligodendrogliomas with increased mitosis count only (11.1%; P < 0.001), and in grade II oligodendrogliomas (0.0%; P < 0.001). The tumor growth rate trends did not differ between centers (P = 0.121). Neo-angiogenesis (P < 0.001) and mitosis count at ≥9 (P = 0.013) were independently associated with tumor growth rates ≥8 mm/year. A tumor growth rate ≥8 mm/year was the only predictor independently associated with shorter progression-free survival (P = 0.041).ConclusionsThe spontaneous tumor growth rate recapitulates oligodendroglioma aggressiveness, permits identification of grade III oligodendrogliomas preoperatively when ≥8 mm/year, and questions the grading by mitosis count.

Project description:Oligodendroglioma is characterized by unique clinical, pathological, and genetic features. Recurrent losses of chromosomes 1p and 19q are strongly associated with this brain cancer but knowledge of the identity and function of the genes affected by these alterations is limited. We performed exome sequencing on a discovery set of 16 oligodendrogliomas with 1p/19q co-deletion to identify new molecular features at base-pair resolution. As anticipated, there was a high rate of IDH mutations: all cases had mutations in either IDH1 (14/16) or IDH2 (2/16). In addition, we discovered somatic mutations and insertions/deletions in the CIC gene on chromosome 19q13.2 in 13/16 tumours. These discovery set mutations were validated by deep sequencing of 13 additional tumours, which revealed seven others with CIC mutations, thus bringing the overall mutation rate in oligodendrogliomas in this study to 20/29 (69%). In contrast, deep sequencing of astrocytomas and oligoastrocytomas without 1p/19q loss revealed that CIC alterations were otherwise rare (1/60; 2%). Of the 21 non-synonymous somatic mutations in 20 CIC-mutant oligodendrogliomas, nine were in exon 5 within an annotated DNA-interacting domain and three were in exon 20 within an annotated protein-interacting domain. The remaining nine were found in other exons and frequently included truncations. CIC mutations were highly associated with oligodendroglioma histology, 1p/19q co-deletion, and IDH1/2 mutation (p < 0.001). Although we observed no differences in the clinical outcomes of CIC mutant versus wild-type tumours, in a background of 1p/19q co-deletion, hemizygous CIC mutations are likely important. We hypothesize that the mutant CIC on the single retained 19q allele is linked to the pathogenesis of oligodendrogliomas with IDH mutation. Our detailed study of genetic aberrations in oligodendroglioma suggests a functional interaction between CIC mutation, IDH1/2 mutation, and 1p/19q co-deletion.

Project description:Adult-type diffuse gliomas comprise IDH-mutant astrocytomas, IDH-mutant 1p/19q codeleted oligodendrogliomas (ODG), and IDH-wildtype glioblastomas (GBM). GBM display genome instability, which may result from two genetic events leading to massive chromosome alterations: chromothripsis (CT) and whole-genome duplication (WGD). The better prognosis of the latter may be related to their genome stability compared to GBM. Pangenomic profiles of 297 adult diffuse gliomas were analyzed at initial diagnosis using SNP arrays, including 192 GBM and 105 IDH-mutant gliomas (61 astrocytomas and 44 ODG). Tumor ploidy was assessed with Genome Alteration Print and CT events with CTLPScanner and through manual screening.

Project description:BackgroundThe aim of this study was to correlate MRI features and molecular characteristics in anaplastic oligodendrogliomas (AOs).MethodsThe MRI characteristics of 50 AO patients enrolled in the French national network for high-grade oligodendroglial tumors were analyzed. The genomic profiles and IDH mutational statuses were assessed using high-resolution single-nucleotide polymorphism arrays and direct sequencing, respectively. The gene expression profiles of 25 1p/19q-codeleted AOs were studied on Affymetrix expression arrays.ResultsMost of the cases were frontal lobe contrast-enhanced tumors (52%), but the radiological presentations of these cases were heterogeneous, ranging from low-grade glioma-like aspects (26%) to glioblastoma-like aspects (22%). The 1p/19q codeletion (n = 39) was associated with locations in the frontal lobe (P = .001), with heterogeneous intratumoral signal intensities (P = .003) and with no or nonmeasurable contrast enhancements (P = .01). The IDH wild-type AOs (n = 7) more frequently displayed ringlike contrast enhancements (P = .03) and were more frequently located outside of the frontal lobe (P = .01). However, no specific imaging pattern could be identified for the 1p/19q-codeleted AO or the IDH-mutated AO. Within the 1p/19q-codeleted AO, the contrast enhancement was associated with larger tumor volumes (P = .001), chromosome 9p loss and CDKN2A loss (P = .006), genomic instability (P = .03), and angiogenesis-related gene expression (P < .001), particularly for vascular endothelial growth factor A and angiopoietin 2.ConclusionIn AOs, the 1p/19q codeletion and the IDH mutation are associated with preferential (but not with specific) imaging characteristics. Within 1p/19q-codeleted AO, imaging heterogeneity is related to additional molecular alterations, especially chromosome 9p loss, which is associated with contrast enhancement and larger tumor volume.

Project description:BackgroundThe prediction of clinical behavior, response to therapy, and outcome of infiltrative glioma is challenging. On the basis of previous studies of tumor biology, we defined five glioma molecular groups with the use of three alterations: mutations in the TERT promoter, mutations in IDH, and codeletion of chromosome arms 1p and 19q (1p/19q codeletion). We tested the hypothesis that within groups based on these features, tumors would have similar clinical variables, acquired somatic alterations, and germline variants.MethodsWe scored tumors as negative or positive for each of these markers in 1087 gliomas and compared acquired alterations and patient characteristics among the five primary molecular groups. Using 11,590 controls, we assessed associations between these groups and known glioma germline variants.ResultsAmong 615 grade II or III gliomas, 29% had all three alterations (i.e., were triple-positive), 5% had TERT and IDH mutations, 45% had only IDH mutations, 7% were triple-negative, and 10% had only TERT mutations; 5% had other combinations. Among 472 grade IV gliomas, less than 1% were triple-positive, 2% had TERT and IDH mutations, 7% had only IDH mutations, 17% were triple-negative, and 74% had only TERT mutations. The mean age at diagnosis was lowest (37 years) among patients who had gliomas with only IDH mutations and was highest (59 years) among patients who had gliomas with only TERT mutations. The molecular groups were independently associated with overall survival among patients with grade II or III gliomas but not among patients with grade IV gliomas. The molecular groups were associated with specific germline variants.ConclusionsGliomas were classified into five principal groups on the basis of three tumor markers. The groups had different ages at onset, overall survival, and associations with germline variants, which implies that they are characterized by distinct mechanisms of pathogenesis.

Project description:BackgroundThe optimal chemotherapy regimen between temozolomide and procarbazine, lomustine, and vincristine (PCV) remains uncertain for WHO grade 3 oligodendroglioma (Olig3) patients. We therefore investigated this question using national data.MethodsPatients diagnosed with radiotherapy-treated 1p/19q-codeleted Olig3 between 2010 and 2018 were identified from the National Cancer Database. The overall survival (OS) associated with first-line single-agent temozolomide vs multi-agent PCV was estimated by Kaplan-Meier techniques and evaluated by multivariable Cox regression.ResultsOne thousand five hundred ninety-six radiotherapy-treated 1p/19q-codeleted Olig3 patients were identified: 88.6% (n = 1414) treated with temozolomide and 11.4% (n = 182) with PCV (from 5.4% in 2010 to 12.0% in 2018) in the first-line setting. The median follow-up was 35.5 months (interquartile range [IQR] 20.7-60.6 months) with 63.3% of patients alive at the time of analysis. There was a significant difference in unadjusted OS between temozolomide (5-year OS 58.9%, 95%CI: 55.6-62.0) and PCV (5-year OS 65.1%, 95%CI: 54.8-73.5; P = .04). However, a significant OS difference between temozolomide and PCV was not observed in the Cox regression analysis adjusted by age and extent of resection (PCV vs temozolomide HR 0.81, 95%CI: 0.59-1.11, P = .18). PCV was more frequently used for younger Olig3s but otherwise was not associated with patient's insurance status or care setting.ConclusionsIn a national analysis of Olig3s, first-line PCV chemotherapy was associated with a slightly improved unadjusted short-term OS compared to temozolomide; but not following adjustment by patient age and extent of resection. There has been an increase in PCV utilization since 2010. These findings provide preliminary data while we await the definitive results from the CODEL trial.

Project description:BackgroundThe aim of this study was to correlate histological features and molecular characteristics in anaplastic oligodendrogliomas (AOs).MethodsThe histological characteristics of 203 AO patients, enrolled in the French national network POLA, were analyzed. The genomic profiles of 191 cases were studied using genomic arrays. IDH mutational status was assessed by immunohistochemistry and direct sequencing.Results1p/19q codeletion was present in 79% of cases and was associated with alpha-internexin expression (P < 10(-4)), IDH1/2 mutation (P < 10(-4)), chromosome 4 loss (P < 10(-3)), and better overall survival (P < 10(-4)). Based on mitotic index, microvascular proliferation (MVP), and necrosis, 3 groups of 1p/19q codeleted AOs were identified: (group 1) AO with more than 5 mitoses per 10-HPF, no MVP, and no necrosis; (group 2) AO with MVP and no necrosis; and (group 3) AO with MVP and necrosis. Compared with group 1, groups 2 and 3 AOs had a higher mean Ki-67 proliferation index and a higher rate of 9p and 9q losses. Compared with group 2, group 3 AOs had a higher number of chromosomal alterations including chromosome 4 loss. In the subgroup of 157 1p/19q codeleted AOs, chromosomal instability was associated with shorter progression-free survival (P = .024) and shorter overall survival (P = .023).ConclusionsThe present study shows that oligodendrogliomas with classic histological features remain a molecularly heterogeneous entity and should be stratified according to 1p/19q status because of its major prognostic relevance. Moreover, 1p/19q codeleted AOs are also heterogeneous. Interestingly, mitotic index, MVP, and necrosis help to classify them into 3 groups associated with distinct genomic alterations.

Project description:BackgroundThis study aimed to assess the validity and pathophysiology of the T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign for noninvasive identification of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant 1p/19q non-codeleted glioma.MethodsMagnetic resonance imaging scans from 408 consecutive patients with newly diagnosed glioma (113 lower-grade gliomas and 295 glioblastomas) were evaluated for the presence of T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign by 2 independent reviewers. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) were calculated to assess the performance of the T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign for identifying IDH-mutant 1p/19q non-codeleted tumors. An exploratory analysis of differences in contrast-enhancing tumor volumes, apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values, and relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) values in IDH-mutant gliomas with versus without the presence of a T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign (as well as analysis of spatial differences within tumors with the presence of a T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign) was performed.ResultsThe T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign was present in 12 cases with lower-grade glioma (10.6%), all of them being IDH-mutant 1p/19q non-codeleted tumors (sensitivity = 10.9%, specificity = 100%, PPV = 100%, NPV = 3.0%, accuracy = 13.3%). There was a substantial interrater agreement to identify the T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign (Cohen's kappa = 0.75 [95% CI, 0.57-0.93]). The T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign was not identified in any other molecular subgroup, including IDH-mutant glioblastoma cases (n = 5). IDH-mutant gliomas with a T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign showed significantly higher ADC (P < .0001) and lower rCBV values (P = .0123) as compared to IDH-mutant gliomas without a T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign. Moreover, in IDH-mutant gliomas with T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign the ADC values were significantly lower in the FLAIR-hyperintense rim as compared to the FLAIR-hypointense core of the tumor (P = .0005).ConclusionsThis study confirms the high specificity of the T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign for noninvasive identification of IDH-mutant 1p/19q non-codeleted gliomas; however, sensitivity is low and applicability is limited to lower-grade gliomas. Whether the higher ADC and lower rCBV values in IDH-mutant gliomas with a T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign (as compared to those without) translate into a measurable prognostic effect requires investigation in future studies. Moreover, spatial differences in ADC values between the core and rim of tumors with a T2/FLAIR-mismatch sign potentially reflect specific distinctions in tumor cellularity and microenvironment.

Project description:Although 1p/19q codeletion is the genetic hallmark defining oligodendrogliomas, approximately 30-40% of oligodendroglial tumors have intact 1p/19q in the literature and they demonstrate a worse prognosis. This group of 1p/19q intact oligodendroglial tumors is frequently suggested to be astrocytic in nature with TP53 and ATRX mutations but actually remains under-investigated. In the present study, we provided evidence that not all 1p/19q intact oligodendroglial tumors are astrocytic through histologic and molecular approaches. We examined 1p/19q status by FISH in a large cohort of 337 oligodendroglial tumors and identified 39.8% lacking 1p/19q codeletion which was independently associated with poor prognosis. Among this 1p/19q intact oligodendroglial tumor cohort, 58 cases demonstrated classic oligodendroglial histology which showed older patient age, better prognosis, association with grade III histology, PDGFRA expression, TERTp mutation, as well as frequent IDH mutation. More than half of the 1p/19q intact oligodendroglial tumors showed lack of astrocytic defining markers, p53 expression and ATRX loss. TP53 mutational analysis was additionally conducted in 45 cases of the 1p/19q intact oligodendroglial tumors. Wild-type TP53 was detected in 71.1% of cases which was associated with classic oligodendroglial histology. Importantly, IDH and TERTp co-occurred in 75% of 1p/19q intact, TP53 wild-type oligodendrogliomas, highlighting the potential of the co-mutations in assisting diagnosis of oligodendrogliomas in tumors with clear cell morphology and non-codeleted 1p/19q status. In summary, our study demonstrated that not all 1p/19q intact oligodendroglial tumors are astrocytic and co-evaluation of IDH and TERTp mutation could potentially serve as an adjunct for diagnosing 1p/19q intact oligodendrogliomas.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Recent reports indicate that anaplastic oligodendrogliomas frequently show allelic losses on chromosome arms 1p and 19q, and that these deletions are associated with better chemotherapeutic response and overall patient survival. Because of the diversified genetic makeup of the population and the centralized provincial referral system for brain tumor patients in Manitoba, the epidemiological features of such tumors sometimes differ from the published data acquired from non-community based settings. In this study, we assessed the prevalence of allelic deletions for chromosome arms 1p and 19q in anaplastic and in low-grade oligodendrogliomas in the Manitoba population. METHODS: Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis of brain tumors was carried out using 4 microsatellite markers (D1S508, D1S2734, D19S219 and D19S412) and a PCR based assay. The tumors were consecutively acquired during the period September 1999-March 2001 and a total of 63 tumors were assessed. RESULTS: We found that allelic loss of chromosome 1p and 19q was higher in oligodendrogliomas than in other diffuse gliomas and that for anaplastic oligodendrogliomas, younger patients exhibited significantly more deletions than older patients (>60 years of age). CONCLUSIONS: These studies suggest that age may be a factor in the genetic alterations of oligodendrogliomas. In addition, these studies demonstrate that this assay can easily be carried out in a cost-effective manner in a small tertiary center.
