Identification of a three-long non-coding RNA signature for predicting survival of temozolomide-treated isocitrate dehydrogenase mutant low-grade gliomas.

ABSTRACT: Temozolomide (TMZ) is the major chemotherapy agent in glioma, and isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) is a well-known prognostic marker in glioma. O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase promoter methylation (MGMTmethyl) is a predictive biomarker in overall gliomas rather than in IDH mutant gliomas. To discover effective biomarkers that could predict TMZ efficacy in IDH mutant low-grade gliomas (LGGs), we retrieved data of IDH mutant LGGs from TMZ arm of the EORTC22033-26033 trial as the training-set (n = 83), analyzed correlations between long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and progression-free survival (PFS) using Lasso-Cox regression, and created a risk score (RS) to stratify patients. We identified a three-lncRNA signature in TMZ-treated IDH mutant LGGs. All of the three lncRNAs, as well as the RS derived, were significantly correlated with PFS. Patients were classified into high-risk and low-risk groups according to RS. PFS of the high-risk group was significantly worse than that of the low-risk group (P < 0.001). AUCs of the three-, four-, and five-year survival probability predicted by RS were 0.73, 0.79, and 0.76, respectively. The predictive role of the three-lncRNA signature was further validated in an independent testing-set, the TCGA-LGGs, which resulted in a significantly worse PFS (P < 0.001) in the high-risk group. Three-, four-, and five-year survival probabilities predicted by RS were 0.65, 0.69, and 0.84, respectively. Functions of these three lncRNAs involve cell proliferation and differentiation, predicted by their targeting cancer genes. Conclusively, we created a scoring model based on the expression of three lncRNAs, which can effectively predict the survival of IDH mutant LGGs treated with TMZ.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Mutations in the isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) and IDH2 genes are important for both the integrated diagnosis and the prognosis of diffuse gliomas. The p.R132H mutation of IDH1 is the most frequently observed IDH mutation, while IDH2 mutations were relatively rarely studied. The aim of the study was to determine the pathological and genetic characteristics of lower-grade gliomas that carry IDH2 mutations. METHODS:Data from 238 adult patients with lower-grade gliomas were retrospectively analyzed. The status of IDH1/2 gene mutations, telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) promoter mutations, O-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation, 1p/19q co-deletion and the expressions of IDH1 R132H, alpha-thalassemia X-linked mental retardation, and p53 were evaluated. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated via Kaplan-Meier estimation using the log-rank test. RESULTS:Totally, 71% (169/238) of patients were positive for IDH mutations, including 12 patients harboring mutations in IDH2. Among the 12 patients with IDH2 mutations, ten patients harbored the R172K mutation, one patient harbored the R172S mutation and one harbored the R172W mutation. Of these, 11 tumors occurred in the frontal lobe and showed morphology typical of oligodendroglioma. The proportion of grade II tumors was higher than that of grade III tumors in IDH2 mutant-gliomas. IDH2 mutations were frequently associated with TERT promoter mutations, 1p/19q co-deletion and MGMT promoter methylation. IDH2 mutations were associated with better outcomes compared with IDH wild-type gliomas (P?<?0.05). However, the PFS and OS did not differ from that of IDH1 mutant patients (P?=?0.95 and P?=?0.60, respectively). CONCLUSIONS:IDH2 mutations are more frequent in oligodendrogliomas and associated with a better prognosis. IDH2 mutations may segregate in distinct clinico-pathological and genetic subtypes of gliomas, and therefore may merit routine investigation.

Project description:Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 gene mutations are found in most World Health Organization grade II and III gliomas and secondary glioblastomas. Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 mutations are known to have prognostic value in high-grade gliomas. However, their prognostic significance in low-grade gliomas remains controversial. We determined the predictive and prognostic value of isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 status in low-grade gliomas. The association of isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 status with clinicopathological and genetic factors was also evaluated. Clinical information and genetic data including isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 mutation, O 6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase promoter methylation, 1p/19q chromosome loss, and TP53 mutation of 417 low-grade gliomas were collected from the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas database. Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were performed to evaluate the prognostic effect of clinical characteristics and molecular biomarkers. Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 mutation was identified as an independent prognostic factor for overall, but not progression-free, survival. Notably, isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 mutation was found to be a significant prognostic factor in patients with oligodendrogliomas, but not in patients with astrocytomas. Furthermore, O 6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase promoter methylation (p = 0.017) and TP53 mutation (p < 0.001), but not 1p/19q loss (p = 0.834), occurred at a higher frequency in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1-mutated tumors than in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 wild-type tumors. Younger patient age (p = 0.041) and frontal lobe location (p = 0.010) were significantly correlated with isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 mutation. Chemotherapy did not provide a survival benefit in patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase 1-mutated tumors. Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 mutation was an independent prognostic factor in low-grade gliomas, whereas it showed no predictive value for chemotherapy response. Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 mutation was highly associated with O 6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase promoter methylation and TP53 mutation.
