Mutations within FGFR1 and BRAF indicate superior outcome in diffuse midline gliomas, H3F3A K27M mutant


ABSTRACT: Diffuse midline glioma (DMG) is a devastating disease that is defined by its localization, by the diffuse growth of astrocytic tumor cells, and by K27M mutations within Histone H3 proteins. In a large series of such tumor samples (n=83), we show here that 12 % of these cases (n=10) harbor concomitant hotspot mutations within FGFR1 or BRAF. Respective cases were all located in midline structures and matched with reference cases of DMG using global DNA methylation profiling. TP53 mutations were significantly more frequent in BRAF/FGFR1 wild type cases. Presence of hotspot mutations within FGFR1 or BRAF was associated with a significantly better overall survival, which was independent of the patients’ age and tumor localization. Thus, our results establish the relevance of FGFR1 or BRAF mutations in DMG as a prognostic marker and open new targeted therapy options in this subgroup of DMG.
