TERT promoter mutations are commonly associated with 1p/19q codeletion in IDH-mutated gliomas. However, whether these mutations have an impact on patient survival independent of 1p/19q codeletion is unknown. In this study, we investigated the impact of TERT promoter mutations on survival in IDH-mutated glioma cases. Detailed clinical information and molecular status data were collected for a cohort of 560 adult patients with IDH-mutated gliomas. Among these patients, 279 had both TERT promoter m ...[more]

Project description:Recent genome-wide association studies of glioma have led to the discovery of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at 25 loci influencing risk. Gliomas are heterogeneous, hence to investigate the relationship between risk SNPs and glioma subtype we analysed 1659 tumours profiled for IDH mutation, TERT promoter mutation and 1p/19q co-deletion. These data allowed definition of five molecular subgroups of glioma: triple-positive (IDH mutated, 1p/19q co-deletion, TERT promoter mutated); TERT-IDH (IDH mutated, TERT promoter mutated, 1p/19q-wild-type); IDH-only (IDH mutated, 1p/19q wild-type, TERT promoter wild-type); triple-negative (IDH wild-type, 1p/19q wild-type, TERT promoter wild-type) and TERT-only (TERT promoter mutated, IDH wild-type, 1p/19q wild-type). Most glioma risk loci showed subtype specificity: (1) the 8q24.21 SNP for triple-positive glioma; (2) 5p15.33, 9p21.3, 17p13.1 and 20q13.33 SNPs for TERT-only glioma; (3) 1q44, 2q33.3, 3p14.1, 11q21, 11q23.3, 14q12, and 15q24.2 SNPs for IDH mutated glioma. To link risk SNPs to target candidate genes we analysed Hi-C and gene expression data, highlighting the potential role of IDH1 at 2q33.3, MYC at 8q24.21 and STMN3 at 20q13.33. Our observations provide further insight into the nature of susceptibility to glioma.

Project description:BackgroundOligodendroglioma is genetically defined by concomitant IDH (IDH1/IDH2) mutation and whole-arm 1p/19q codeletion. Codeletion of 1p/19q traditionally evaluated by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) cannot distinguish partial from whole-arm 1p/19q codeletion. Partial 1p/19q codeletion called positive by FISH is diagnostically a "false-positive" result. Chromosomal microarray (CMA) discriminates partial from whole-arm 1p/19q codeletion. Herein, we aimed to estimate the frequency of partial 1p/19q codeletion that would lead to a false-positive FISH result.MethodsFISH 1p/19q codeletion test probe coordinates were mapped onto Oncoscan CMA data to determine the rate of partial 1p/19q codeletion predicted to be positive by FISH. Diffuse astrocytic gliomas with available CMA data (2015-2018) were evaluated and classified based on IDH1-R132H/ATRX/p53 immunohistochemistry, IDH/TERT promoter targeted sequencing, and/or CMA according to classification updates. Predicted false-positive cases were verified by FISH whenever possible.ResultsThe overall estimated false-positive FISH 1p/19q codeletion rate was 3.6% (8/223). Predicted false positives were verified by FISH in 6 (of 8) cases. False-positive rates did not differ significantly (P = .49) between IDH-mutant (4.6%; 4/86) and IDH-wildtype (2.9%; 4/137) tumors. IDH-wildtype false positives were all WHO grade IV, whereas IDH-mutant false positives spanned WHO grades II-IV. Testing for 1p/19q codeletion would not have been indicated for most false positives based on current classification recommendations.ConclusionSelective 1p/19q codeletion testing and cautious interpretation for conflicting FISH and histopathological findings are recommended to avoid potential misdiagnosis.

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:High-grade gliomas are malignant neuroepithelial tumors. The current WHO classification for adult-type diffuse gliomas is based on IDH1/2 mutational and 1p/19q-codeletion status, which can be refined by emerging genomics, transcriptomics, and methylomics approaches. Nevertheless, therapy has been dominated by radiochemotherapy for about 15 years and progressed little in efficacy or precision through advanced molecular patient stratification. Glioma proteome alterations remain undercharacterized despite their promise for a better stratification and, in particular, the identification of therapeutic targets. Here, we used mass spectrometry (MS) to characterize 42 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples from IDH-wildtype (IDHwt), IDH-mutant (IDHmut) gliomas with and without 1p/19q-codeletion, and non-neoplastic brain tissue controls. Based on more than 5500 quantified proteins and 5000 phospho-sites, gliomas separated according to IDH1/2 mutational status and reflected loss of proteins encoded on 1p/19q in IDHmut, gains on chromosome 7 and losses on chromosome 10 in IDHwt. Unexpectedly, the 1p/19q-codeletion resulted in minor proteome changes. Instead, two proteomic subtypes of IDHmut gliomas showed major perturbations of mitochondrial DNA-encoded proteins, aerobic/anaerobic energy metabolism, RNA metabolism, chromatin dynamics, the extracellular matrix as well as tumor suppressor and oncoproteins. Reanalysis of three glioma proteomics studies independently validate the observed hallmarks and associate these proteomic subtypes with the well-established proneural and classic/mesenchymal IDHwt glioma subtypes. These results suggest an alternative stratification of IDHmut gliomas as part of common phenotypic subtypes independent of the IDH status, with broad therapeutic implications for patients with IDHmut gliomas in the future. Altogether, our study provides a rich protein and phospho-site resource restratifying glioma subtypes and supporting future mechanism of action and target discovery investigations.

Project description:BackgroundAccurate classification of diffuse gliomas, the most common tumors of the central nervous system in adults, is important for appropriate treatment. However, detection of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation and chromosome1p/19q codeletion, biomarkers to classify gliomas, is time- and cost-intensive and diagnostic discordance remains an issue. Adenosine to inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing has emerged as a novel cancer prognostic marker, but its value for glioma classification remains largely unexplored. We aim to (1) unravel the relationship between RNA editing and IDH mutation and 1p/19q codeletion and (2) predict IDH mutation and 1p/19q codeletion status using machine learning algorithms.ResultsBy characterizing genome-wide A-to-I RNA editing signatures of 638 gliomas, we found that tumors without IDH mutation exhibited higher total editing level compared with those carrying it (Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, p?<?0.0001). When tumor grade was considered, however, only grade IV tumors without IDH mutation exhibited higher total editing level. According to 10-fold cross-validation, support vector machines (SVM) outperformed random forest and AdaBoost (DeLong test, p?<?0.05). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of SVM in predicting IDH mutation and 1p/19q codeletion were 0.989 and 0.990, respectively. After performing feature selection, AUCs of SVM and AdaBoost in predicting IDH mutation were higher than that of random forest (0.985 and 0.983 vs. 0.977; DeLong test, p?<?0.05), but AUCs of the three algorithms in predicting 1p/19q codeletion were similar (0.976-0.982). Furthermore, 67% of the six continuously misclassified samples by our 1p/19q codeletion prediction models were misclassifications in the original labelling after inspection of 1p/19q status and/or pathology report, highlighting the accuracy and clinical utility of our models.ConclusionsThe study represents the first genome-wide analysis of glioma editome and identifies RNA editing as a novel prognostic biomarker for glioma. Our prediction models provide standardized, accurate, reproducible and objective classification of gliomas. Our models are not only useful in clinical decision-making, but also able to identify editing events that have the potential to serve as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in glioma management and treatment.

Project description:PurposeThe present study aimed to preoperatively predict the status of 1p/19q based on radiomics analysis in patients with World Health Organization (WHO) grade II gliomas.MethodsThis retrospective study enrolled 157 patients with WHO grade II gliomas (76 patients with astrocytomas with mutant IDH, 16 patients with astrocytomas with wild-type IDH, and 65 patients with oligodendrogliomas with mutant IDH and 1p/19q codeletion). Radiomic features were extracted from magnetic resonance images, including T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and contrast T1-weighted images. Elastic net and support vector machines with radial basis function kernel were applied in nested 10-fold cross-validation loops to predict the 1p/19q status. Receiver operating characteristic analysis and precision-recall analysis were used to evaluate the model performance. Student's t-tests were then used to compare the posterior probabilities of 1p/19q co-deletion prediction in the group with different 1p/19q status.ResultsSix valuable radiomic features, along with age, were selected with the nested 10-fold cross-validation loops. Five features showed significant difference in patients with different 1p/19q status. The area under curve and accuracy of the predictive model were 0.8079 (95% confidence interval, 0.733-0.8755) and 0.758 (0.6879-0.8217), respectively, and the F1-score of the precision-recall curve achieved 0.6667 (0.5201-0.7705). The posterior probabilities in the 1p/19q co-deletion group were significantly different from the non-deletion group.ConclusionCombined radiomics analysis and machine learning showed potential clinical utility in the preoperative prediction of 1p/19q status, which can aid in making customized neurosurgery plans and glioma management strategies before postoperative pathology.

Project description:Mutations in the telomerase reverse transcriptase gene promoter (TERTp) are common in glioblastomas (GBMs) and oligodendrogliomas (ODGs), and therefore, have a key role in tumorigenesis and may be of prognostic value. However, the extent of their prognostic importance in various gliomas is controversial. We studied 168 patients separated into five groups: Group 1: 65 patients with ODG carrying an IDH1 or IDH2 mutation (IDH-mutant) and 1p/19q-codeletion, Group 2: 23 patients with anaplastic astrocytoma (AA), IDH-mutant, Group 3: 13 patients with GBM, IDH-mutant, Group 4: 15 patients with AA, IDH-wildtype (WT), and Group 5: 52 patients with GBM, IDH-WT. TERTp mutations were found in 96.9%, 4.4%, 76.9%, 20.0%, and 84.6% of patients in Groups 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, respectively. The R132H mutation in IDH1 was found in 60.5% (23/38) of patients in the AA cohort (Groups 2 and 4) and 20.0% (13/65) of patients from our GBM cohort (Groups 3 and 5), whereas all patients with ODG (Group 1) had a mutation either in IDH1 (n?=?62) or IDH2 (n?=?3). Using Kaplan Meier survival analysis, we found that the TERTp mutation was correlated with poor overall survival (OS) in Groups 2 and 4 combined (P?=?0.001) and in Group 4 (P?=?0.113), and in multivariate analysis, the TERTp mutant group was associated with significantly poor survival in Group 5 (P?=?0.045). However, IDH mutation, MGMT methylation, and younger patient age (<55 years old) were significantly correlated with favorable OS (all P?<?0.05) in our cohort of astrocytic and ODGs. In patients with ODG (Group 1), mutant IDH and TERTp did not have prognostic value because these mutations were universally present. Based on the revised 2016 WHO classification of gliomas, we found that TERTp mutation was frequently present in patients with GBM or ODG and because it was strongly correlated with poor survival outcome in patients with IDH-WT GBM in multivariate analysis, it may be of prognostic value in this subgroup of patients with gliomas.

Project description:PurposeIsocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) and 1p19q codeletion status are importantin providing prognostic information as well as prediction of treatment response in gliomas. Accurate determination of the IDH mutation status and 1p19q co-deletion prior to surgery may complement invasive tissue sampling and guide treatment decisions.MethodsPreoperative MRIs of 538 glioma patients from three institutions were used as a training cohort. Histogram, shape, and texture features were extracted from preoperative MRIs of T1 contrast enhanced and T2-FLAIR sequences. The extracted features were then integrated with age using a random forest algorithm to generate a model predictive of IDH mutation status and 1p19q codeletion. The model was then validated using MRIs from glioma patients in the Cancer Imaging Archive.ResultsOur model predictive of IDH achieved an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.921 in the training cohort and 0.919 in the validation cohort. Age offered the highest predictive value, followed by shape features. Based on the top 15 features, the AUC was 0.917 and 0.916 for the training and validation cohort, respectively. The overall accuracy for 3 group prediction (IDH-wild type, IDH-mutant and 1p19q co-deletion, IDH-mutant and 1p19q non-codeletion) was 78.2% (155 correctly predicted out of 198).ConclusionUsing machine-learning algorithms, high accuracy was achieved in the prediction of IDH genotype in gliomas and moderate accuracy in a three-group prediction including IDH genotype and 1p19q codeletion.

Project description:BackgroundMutations in telomerase reverse transcriptase promoter (TERTp) and isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (IDH) offer objective markers to assist in classifying diffuse gliomas into genetic subgroups. However, traditional mutation detection techniques lack sensitivity or have long turnaround times or high costs. We developed GliomaDx, an allele-specific, locked nucleic acid-based quantitative PCR assay to overcome these limitations and sensitively detect TERTp and IDH mutations.MethodsWe evaluated the performance of GliomaDx on cell line DNA and frozen tissue diffuse glioma samples with variable tumor percentage to mimic use in clinical settings and validated low percentage variants using sensitive techniques including droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) and next-generation sequencing. We also developed GliomaDx Nest, which incorporates a high-fidelity multiplex pre-amplification step prior to allele-specific PCR for low-input formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) samples.ResultsGliomaDx detects the TERTp and IDH1 alterations at an analytical sensitivity of 0.1% mutant allele fraction, corresponding to 0.2% tumor cellularity. GliomaDx identified TERTp/IDH1 alterations in a cohort of frozen tissue samples with variable tumor percentage of all major diffuse glioma histologic types. GliomaDx Nest is able to detect these hotspot mutations with similar sensitivity from pre-amplified samples and was successfully tested on a cohort of clinical FFPE samples. Testing of a cohort of previously identified TERTpWT-IDHWT gliomas (by Sanger sequencing) revealed that 26.3% harbored low-percentage mutations. Analysis by ddPCR and whole exome sequencing of these tumors confirmed the low mutant fraction of these alterations and overall mutation-based tumor purity.ConclusionsOur results show that GliomaDx can rapidly detect TERTp/IDH mutations with high sensitivity, identifying cases that might be missed due to the lack of sensitivity of other techniques. This approach may facilitate more objective classification of diffuse glioma samples in clinical settings such as intraoperative diagnosis or in testing cases with low tumor purity.
