Influence of supramarginal resection on survival outcomes after gross-total resection of IDH-wild-type glioblastoma.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The authors' goal was to use a multicenter, observational cohort study to determine whether supramarginal resection (SMR) of FLAIR-hyperintense tumor beyond the contrast-enhanced (CE) area influences the overall survival (OS) of patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase-wild-type (IDH-wt) glioblastoma after gross-total resection (GTR).

Methods

The medical records of 888 patients aged ≥ 18 years who underwent resection of GBM between January 2011 and December 2017 were reviewed. Volumetric measurements of the CE tumor and surrounding FLAIR-hyperintense tumor were performed, clinical variables were obtained, and associations with OS were analyzed.

Results

In total, 101 patients with newly diagnosed IDH-wt GBM who underwent GTR of the CE tumor met the inclusion criteria. In multivariate analysis, age ≥ 65 years (HR 1.97; 95% CI 1.01-2.56; p < 0.001) and contact with the lateral ventricles (HR 1.59; 95% CI 1.13-1.78; p = 0.025) were associated with shorter OS, but preoperative Karnofsky Performance Status ≥ 70 (HR 0.47; 95% CI 0.27-0.89; p = 0.006), MGMT promotor methylation (HR 0.63; 95% CI 0.52-0.99; p = 0.044), and increased percentage of SMR (HR 0.99; 95% CI 0.98-0.99; p = 0.02) were associated with longer OS. Finally, 20% SMR was the minimum percentage associated with beneficial OS (HR 0.56; 95% CI 0.35-0.89; p = 0.01), but > 60% SMR had no significant influence (HR 0.74; 95% CI 0.45-1.21; p = 0.234).

Conclusions

SMR is associated with improved OS in patients with IDH-wt GBM who undergo GTR of CE tumor. At least 20% SMR of the CE tumor was associated with beneficial OS, but greater than 60% SMR had no significant influence on OS.

Project description:BackgroundDNA methylation-based tumor classification allows an enhanced distinction into subgroups of glioblastoma. However, the clinical benefit of DNA methylation-based stratification of glioblastomas remains inconclusive.MethodsMulticentric cohort study including 430 patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma subjected to global DNA methylation profiling. Outcome measures included overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), prognostic relevance of EOR and MGMT promoter methylation status as well as a surgical benefit for recurrent glioblastoma.Results345 patients (80.2%) fulfilled the inclusion criteria and 305 patients received combined adjuvant therapy. DNA methylation subclasses RTK I, RTK II, and mesenchymal (MES) revealed no significant survival differences (RTK I: Ref.; RTK II: HR 0.9 [95% CI, 0.64-1.28]; p = 0.56; MES: 0.69 [0.47-1.02]; p = 0.06). Patients with RTK I (GTR/near GTR: Ref.; PR: HR 2.87 [95% CI, 1.36-6.08]; p < 0.01) or RTK II (GTR/near GTR: Ref.; PR: HR 5.09 [95% CI, 2.80-9.26]; p < 0.01) tumors who underwent gross-total resection (GTR) or near GTR had a longer OS and PFS than partially resected patients. The MES subclass showed no survival benefit for a maximized EOR (GTR/near GTR: Ref.; PR: HR 1.45 [95% CI, 0.68-3.09]; p = 0.33). Therapy response predictive value of MGMT promoter methylation was evident for RTK I (HR 0.37 [95% CI, 0.19-0.71]; p < 0.01) and RTK II (HR 0.56 [95% CI, 0.34-0.91]; p = 0.02) but not the MES subclass (HR 0.52 [95% CI, 0.27-1.02]; p = 0.06). For local recurrence (n = 112), re-resection conveyed a progression-to-overall survival (POS) benefit (p < 0.01), which was evident in RTK I (p = 0.03) and RTK II (p < 0.01) tumors, but not in MES tumors (p = 0.33).ConclusionWe demonstrate a survival benefit from maximized EOR for newly diagnosed and recurrent glioblastomas of the RTK I and RTK II but not the MES subclass. Hence, it needs to be debated whether the MES subclass should be treated with maximal surgical resection, especially when located in eloquent areas and at time of recurrence.
