[PMID: 38788610 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejrad.2024.111509] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2024] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly evolving field with many neuro-oncology applications. In this review, we discuss how AI can assist in brain tumour imaging, focusing on machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) techniques. We describe how AI can help in lesion detection, differential diagnosis, anatomic segmentation, molecular marker identification, prognostication, and pseudo-progression evaluation. We also cover AI applications in non-glioma brain tumours, such as brain metastasis, posterior fossa, and pituitary tumours. We highlight the challenges and limitations of AI implementation in radiology, such as data quality, standardization, and integration. Based on the findings in the aforementioned areas, we conclude that AI can potentially improve the diagnosis and treatment of brain tumours and provide a path towards personalized medicine and better patient outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE The introduction of molecular markers in to the diagnosis of gliomas has changed the therapeutic approach to this tumors. The aim of this study was to examine the impact of surgery on anaplastic astrocytomas (AA), which has not previously been fully elucidated. METHODS This was a retrospective study involving a total of 143 patients who underwent surgery for primary AA in our department between 1995 and 2020. RESULTS Total tumor resection was achieved more often in patients with IDH-mutant tumors (41.09%) than in patients with IDH-wildtype tumors (30.76%). The median PFS was 1876 days for patients with IDH1 mutations and 238 days for patients with IDH-wildtype tumors. The 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year PFS were longer in patients with total tumor resection and IDH-mutant AA (86.2%, 69%, 65.5% and 44.8%, respectively) than in patients with subtotal tumor resection and IDH-mutant AA (83.3%, 55.6%, 41.7% and 25%, respectively) and even longer compared to all IDH-wildtype tumors. The median OS was 2472 days for patients with IDH1 mutations and 434 days for patients with IDH-wildtype tumors. The 3-, 5- and 10-year OS times were longer in patients with total tumor resection and IDH-mutant AA (89.2%, 85.2% and 72.6%, respectively) than in patients with subtotal tumor resection and IDH-mutant AA (85.9%, 73.7% and 52.6%, respectively) and were even longer compared to all IDH-wildtype tumors. CONCLUSION Total tumor resection is more common with IDH-mutant AA than with IDH-wildtype tumors. Patients with IDH-mutant AA had significantly better PFS and OS after total tumor resection than after subtotal tumor resection and biopsy.

Rapid detection of IDH mutations in gliomas by intraoperative mass spectrometry. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2024; 121:e2318843121. [PMID: 38805277 PMCID: PMC11161794 DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2318843121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2023] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/30/2024] Open
Abstract
The development and performance of two mass spectrometry (MS) workflows for the intraoperative diagnosis of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutations in glioma is implemented by independent teams at Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, and Huashan Hospital, Shanghai. The infiltrative nature of gliomas makes rapid diagnosis necessary to guide the extent of surgical resection of central nervous system (CNS) tumors. The combination of tissue biopsy and MS analysis used here satisfies this requirement. The key feature of both described methods is the use of tandem MS to measure the oncometabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) relative to endogenous glutamate (Glu) to characterize the presence of mutant tumor. The experiments i) provide IDH mutation status for individual patients and ii) demonstrate a strong correlation of 2HG signals with tumor infiltration. The measured ratio of 2HG to Glu correlates with IDH-mutant (IDH-mut) glioma (P < 0.0001) in the tumor core data of both teams. Despite using different ionization methods and different mass spectrometers, comparable performance in determining IDH mutations from core tumor biopsies was achieved with sensitivities, specificities, and accuracies all at 100%. None of the 31 patients at Mayo Clinic or the 74 patients at Huashan Hospital were misclassified when analyzing tumor core biopsies. Robustness of the methodology was evaluated by postoperative re-examination of samples. Both teams noted the presence of high concentrations of 2HG at surgical margins, supporting future use of intraoperative MS to monitor for clean surgical margins. The power of MS diagnostics is shown in resolving contradictory clinical features, e.g., in distinguishing gliosis from IDH-mut glioma.

Abstract
Several prognostic factors are known to influence survival for patients treated with IDH-wildtype glioblastoma, but unknown factors may remain. We aimed to investigate the prognostic implications of early postoperative MRI findings. A total of 187 glioblastoma patients treated with standard therapy were consecutively included. Patients either underwent a biopsy or surgery followed by an early postoperative MRI. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were analysed for known prognostic factors and MRI-derived candidate factors: resection status as defined by the response assessment in neuro-oncology (RANO)-working group (no contrast-enhancing residual tumour, non-measurable contrast-enhancing residual tumour, or measurable contrast-enhancing residual tumour) with biopsy as reference, contrast enhancement patterns (no enhancement, thin linear, thick linear, diffuse, nodular), and the presence of distant tumours. In the multivariate analysis, patients with no contrast-enhancing residual tumour or non-measurable contrast-enhancing residual tumour on the early postoperative MRI displayed a significantly improved progression-free survival compared with patients receiving only a biopsy. Only patients with non-measurable contrast-enhancing residual tumour showed improved overall survival in the multivariate analysis. Contrast enhancement patterns were not associated with survival. The presence of distant tumours was significantly associated with both poor progression-free survival and overall survival and should be considered incorporated into prognostic models.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate transfer learning combined with various convolutional neural networks (TL-CNNs) in predicting isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 ( IDH1 ) status of grade II/III gliomas. METHODS Grade II/III glioma patients diagnosed at the Tangdu Hospital (August 2009 to May 2017) were retrospectively enrolled, including 54 patients with IDH1 mutant and 56 patients with wild-type IDH1 . Convolutional neural networks, AlexNet, GoogLeNet, ResNet, and VGGNet were fine-tuned with T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), fluid attenuation inversion recovery (FLAIR), and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging (T1CE) images. The single-modal networks were integrated with averaged sigmoid probabilities, logistic regression, and support vector machine. FLAIR-T1CE-fusion (FC-fusion), T2WI-T1CE-fusion (TC-fusion), and FLAIR-T2WI-T1CE-fusion (FTC-fusion) were used for fine-tuning TL-CNNs. RESULTS IDH1 -mutant prediction accuracies using AlexNet, GoogLeNet, ResNet, and VGGNet achieved 70.0% (AUC = 0.660), 65.0% (AUC = 0.600), 70.0% (AUC = 0.700), and 80.0% (AUC = 0.730) for T2WI images, 70.0% (AUC = 0.660), 70.0% (AUC = 0.620), 70.0% (AUC = 0.710), and 80.0% (AUC = 0.720) for FLAIR images, and 73.7% (AUC = 0.744), 73.7% (AUC = 0.656), 73.7% (AUC = 0.633), and 73.7% (AUC = 0.700) for T1CE images, respectively. The highest AUC (0.800) was achieved using VGGNet and FC-fusion images. CONCLUSIONS TL-CNNs (especially VGGNet) had a potential predictive value for IDH1 -mutant status of grade II/III gliomas.

Radical surgical resection with molecular margins is associated with improved survival in IDH wildtype GBM. Neuro Oncol 2024:noae073.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Survival is variable in patients with glioblastoma IDH wild-type (GBM), even after comparable surgical resection of radiographically-detectable disease, highlighting the limitations of radiographic assessment of infiltrative tumor anatomy. The majority of post-surgical progressive events are failures within 2cm of the resection margin, motivating supramaximal resection strategies to improve local control. However, which patients benefit from such radical resections remains unknown. METHODS We developed a predictive model to identify which IDH wild-type GBM are amenable to radiographic gross total resection (GTR). We then investigated whether GBM survival heterogeneity following GTR is correlated with microscopic tumor burden a by analyzing tumor cell content at the surgical margin with a rapid qPCR-based method for detection of TERT promoter mutation. RESULTS Our predictive model for achievable GTR, developed on retrospective radiographic and molecular data of GBM patients undergoing resection, had an AUC of 0.83, sensitivity of 62%, and specificity of 90%. Prospective analysis of this model in 44 patients found 89% of patients were correctly predicted to achieve a RV<4.9cc. Of the 44 prospective patients undergoing rapid qPCR TERT promoter mutation analysis at the surgical margin, 7 had undetectable TERT mutation, of which 5 also had a gross total resection (RV<1cc). In these 5 patients at 30 months follow up, 75% showed no progression, compared to 0% in the group with TERT mutations detected at the surgical margin (p=0.02). CONCLUSIONS These findings identify a subset of patients with GBM that may derive local control benefit from radical resection to undetectable molecular margins.

Rethinking extent of resection of contrast-enhancing and non-enhancing tumor: different survival impacts on adult-type diffuse gliomas in 2021 World Health Organization classification. Eur Radiol 2024; 34:1376-1387. [PMID: 37608093 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-023-10125-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2023] [Revised: 06/22/2023] [Accepted: 07/01/2023] [Indexed: 08/24/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Extent of resection (EOR) of contrast-enhancing (CE) and non-enhancing (NE) tumors may have different impacts on survival according to types of adult-type diffuse gliomas in the molecular era. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of EOR of CE and NE tumors in glioma according to the 2021 World Health Organization classification. METHODS This retrospective study included 1193 adult-type diffuse glioma patients diagnosed between 2001 and 2021 (183 oligodendroglioma, 211 isocitrate dehydrogenase [IDH]-mutant astrocytoma, and 799 IDH-wildtype glioblastoma patients) from a single institution. Patients had complete information on IDH mutation, 1p/19q codeletion, and O6-methylguanine-methyltransferase (MGMT) status. Cox survival analyses were performed within each glioma type to assess predictors of overall survival, including clinical, imaging data, histological grade, MGMT status, adjuvant treatment, and EOR of CE and NE tumors. Subgroup analyses were performed in patients with CE tumor. RESULTS Among 1193 patients, 935 (78.4%) patients had CE tumors. In entire oligodendrogliomas, gross total resection (GTR) of NE tumor was not associated with survival (HR = 0.56, p = 0.223). In 86 (47.0%) oligodendroglioma patients with CE tumor, GTR of CE tumor was the only independent predictor of survival (HR = 0.16, p = 0.004) in multivariable analysis. GTR of CE and NE tumors was independently associated with better survival in IDH-mutant astrocytoma and IDH-wildtype glioblastoma (all ps < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS GTR of both CE and NE tumors may significantly improve survival within IDH-mutant astrocytomas and IDH-wildtype glioblastomas. In oligodendrogliomas, the EOR of CE tumor may be crucial in survival; aggressive GTR of NE tumor may be unnecessary, whereas GTR of the CE tumor is recommended. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT Surgical strategies on contrast-enhancing (CE) and non-enhancing (NE) tumors should be reassessed considering the different survival outcomes after gross total resection depending on CE and NE tumors in the 2021 World Health Organization classification of adult-type diffuse gliomas. KEY POINTS The survival impact of extent of resection of contrast-enhancing (CE) and non-enhancing (NE) tumors was evaluated in adult-type diffuse gliomas. Gross total resection of both CE and NE tumors may improve survival in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant astrocytomas and IDH-wildtype glioblastomas, while only gross total resection of the CE tumor improves survival in oligodendrogliomas. Surgical strategies should be reconsidered according to types in adult-type diffuse gliomas.

Tumor Multiregional Mean Apparent Propagator (MAP) Features in Evaluating Gliomas-A Comparative Study With Diffusion Kurtosis Imaging (DKI). J Magn Reson Imaging 2023. [PMID: 38131220 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.29202] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2023] [Revised: 12/08/2023] [Accepted: 12/09/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Glioma classification affects treatment and prognosis. Reliable imaging methods for preoperatively evaluating gliomas are essential. PURPOSE To evaluate tumor multiregional mean apparent propagator (MAP) features in glioma diagnosis and to compare those with diffusion-kurtosis imaging (DKI). STUDY TYPE Retrospective study. SUBJECTS 70 untreated glioma patients (31 LGGs (low-grade gliomas), 34 women; mean age, 47 ± 12 years, training (60%, n = 42) and testing cohorts (40%, n = 28)). FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 3-T, diffusion-MRI using q-space Cartesian grid sampling with 11 different b-values. ASSESSMENT Tumor multiregional MAP (mean squared displacement (MSD); q-space inverse variance (QIV); non-Gaussianity (NG); axial/radial non-Gaussianity (NGAx, NGRad); return-to-origin/axis/plane probability (RTOP, RTAP, and RTPP)); and DKI metrics (axial/mean/radial kurtosis (AK, MK, and RK)) on tumor parenchyma (TP) and peritumoral areas (PT) in histopathologically gliomas grading and genotyping were assessed. STATISTICAL TESTS Mann-Whitney U; Kruskal-Wallis; Benjamini-Hochberg; Bonferroni-correction; receiver operating curve (ROC) and area under curve (AUC); DeLong's test; Random Forest (RF). P value<0.05 was considered statistically significant after multiple comparisons correction. RESULTS Compared with LGGs, MSD, and QIV were significantly lower in TP, whereas NG, NGAx, NGRad, RTOP, RTAP, RTPP, and DKI metrics were significantly higher in HGGs (high-grade gliomas) (P ≤ 0.007), as well as in isocitrate-dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutated than IDH-wildtype gliomas (P ≤ 0.039). These trends were reversed for PT (tumor grades, P ≤ 0.011; IDH-mutation status, P ≤ 0.012). ROC analysis showed that, in TP, DKI metrics performed best in TP (AUC 0.83), whereas in PT, RTPP performed best (AUC 0.77) in glioma grading. AK performed best in TP (AUC 0.77), whereas MSD and RTPP performed best in PT (AUC 0.73) in IDH genotyping. Further RF analysis with DKI and MAP demonstrated good performance in grading (AUC 0.91, Accuracy 82%) and IDH genotyping (AUC 0.87, Accuracy 79%). DATA CONCLUSION Tumor multiregional MAP features could effectively evaluate gliomas. The performance of MAP may be similar to DKI in TP, while in PT, MAP may outperform DKI. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite significant advances in understanding the molecular pathways of glioma, translating this knowledge into effective long-term solutions remains a challenge. Indeed, gliomas pose a significant challenge to neurosurgical oncology because of their diverse histopathological features, genetic heterogeneity, and clinical manifestations. Relevant sections: This study focuses on glioma complexity by reviewing recent advances in their management, also considering new classification systems and emerging neurosurgical techniques. To bridge the gap between new neurosurgical approaches and standards of care, the importance of molecular diagnosis and the use of techniques such as laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) and focused ultrasound (FUS) are emphasized, exploring how the integration of molecular knowledge with emerging neurosurgical approaches can personalize and improve the treatment of gliomas. CONCLUSIONS The choice between LITT and FUS should be tailored to each case, considering factors such as tumor characteristics and patient health. LITT is favored for larger, complex tumors, while FUS is standard for smaller, deep-seated ones. Both techniques are equally effective for small and superficial tumors. Our study provides clear guidance for treating pediatric low-grade gliomas and highlights the crucial roles of LITT and FUS in managing high-grade gliomas in adults. This research sets the stage for improved patient care and future developments in the field of neurosurgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This article highlights key aspects of the diagnosis and management of adult-type diffuse gliomas, including glioblastomas and IDH-mutant gliomas relevant to the daily practice of the general neurologist. LATEST DEVELOPMENTS The advances in molecular characterization of gliomas have translated into more accurate prognostication and tumor classification. Gliomas previously categorized by histological appearance solely as astrocytomas or oligodendrogliomas are now also defined by molecular features. Furthermore, ongoing clinical trials have incorporated these advances to tailor more effective treatments for specific glioma subtypes. ESSENTIAL POINTS Despite recent insights into the molecular aspects of gliomas, these tumors remain incurable. Care for patients with these complex tumors requires a multidisciplinary team in which the general neurologist has an important role. Efforts focus on translating the latest data into more effective therapies that can prolong survival.

Abstract
Background Aim of the present study is to investigate whether preoperative neurocognitive status is prognostically associated with overall survival (OS) in newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) patients. Methods Ninety patients with dominant-hemisphere IDH-wild-type GBM were assessed by Mini Mental Status Exam (MMSE), Trail Making Test (TMT) A and B parts, and Control Word Association Test (COWAT) phonemic and semantic subtests. Demographics, Karnofsky Performance Scale, tumor parameters, type of surgery, and adjuvant therapy data were available for patients. Results According to Cox proportional hazards model the neurocognitive variables of TMT B (P < .01), COWAT semantic subset (P < .05), and the MMSE (P < .01) were found significantly associated with survival prediction. From all other factors, only tumor volume and operation type (debulking vs biopsy) showed a statistical association (P < .05) with survival prediction. Kaplan Meier Long rank test showed statistical significance (P < .01) between unimpaired and impaired groups for TMT B, with median survival for the unimpaired group 26 months and 10 months for the impaired group, for COWAT semantic (P < .01) with median survival 23 months and 12 months, respectively and for MMSE (P < .01) with medial survival 19 and 12 months respectively. Conclusions Our study demonstrates that neurocognitive status at baseline-prior to treatment-is an independent prognostic factor for OS in wild-type GBM patients, adding another prognostic tool to assist physicians in selecting the best treatment plan.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to assess the value of biomarker based radiomics to predict IDH mutation in gliomas. The patient cohort consists of 160 patients histopathologicaly proven of primary glioma (WHO grades 2-4) from 3 different centers. Methods To quantify the DSC perfusion signal two different mathematical modeling methods were used (Gamma fitting, leakage correction algorithms) considering the assumptions about the compartments contributing in the blood flow between the extra- and intra vascular space. Results The Mean slope of increase (MSI) and the K1 parameter of the bidirectional exchange model exhibited the highest performance with (ACC 74.3% AUROC 74.2%) and (ACC 75% AUROC 70.5%) respectively. Conclusion The proposed framework on DSC-MRI radiogenomics in gliomas has the potential of becoming a reliable diagnostic support tool exploiting the mathematical modeling of the DSC signal to characterize IDH mutation status through a more reproducible and standardized signal analysis scheme for facilitating clinical translation.

Abstract
Glioblastoma is the most common malignant primary central nervous system tumor and one of the most debilitating cancers. The prognosis of patients with glioblastoma remains poor, and the management of this tumor, both in its primary and recurrent forms, remains suboptimal. Despite the tremendous efforts that are being put forward by the research community to discover novel efficacious therapeutic agents and modalities, no major paradigm shifts have been established in the field in the last decade. However, this does not mirror the abundance of relevant findings and discoveries made in preclinical glioblastoma research. Hence, developing and utilizing appropriate preclinical models that faithfully recapitulate the characteristics and behavior of human glioblastoma is of utmost importance. Herein, we offer a holistic picture of the evolution of preclinical models of glioblastoma. We further elaborate on the commonly used in vitro and vivo models, delving into their development, favorable characteristics, shortcomings, and areas of potential improvement, which aids researchers in designing future experiments and utilizing the most suitable models. Additionally, this review explores progress in the fields of humanized and immunotolerant mouse models, genetically engineered animal models, 3D in vitro models, and microfluidics and highlights promising avenues for the future of preclinical glioblastoma research.

Abstract
The T2-Fluid-Attenuated Inversion Recovery (T2-FLAIR) mismatch sign is a radiogenomic marker that is easily discernible on preoperative conventional MR imaging. Application of strict criteria (adult population, cerebral hemisphere location, and classic imaging morphology) permits the noninvasive preoperative diagnosis of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant 1p/19q-non-codeleted diffuse astrocytoma with near-perfect specificity, albeit with variably low sensitivity. This leads to improved preoperative planning and patient counseling. More recent research has shown that the application of less strict criteria compromises the near-perfect specificity of the sign but remains adequate for ruling out IDH-wildtype (glioblastoma) phenotype, which bears a far grimmer prognosis compared to IDH-mutant diffuse astrocytic disease. In this review, we elaborate on the various definitions of the T2-FLAIR mismatch sign present in the literature, illustrate these with images obtained at a comprehensive cancer center, discuss the potential of the mismatch sign for application to certain pediatric-type brain tumors, namely dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor and diffuse midline glioma, and elaborate upon the clinical, histologic, and molecular associations of the T2-FLAIR mismatch sign as recognized to date. Finally, the sign's correlates in diffusion- and perfusion-weighted imaging are presented, and opportunities to further maximize the diagnostic and prognostic applications of the sign in the context of the 2021 revision of the WHO Classification of Central Nervous System Tumors are discussed.

Abstract
Molecular markers are of increasing importance for classifying, treating, and determining the prognosis for central nervous system tumors. Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) is a critical regulator of glucose and amino acid metabolism. Our objective was to investigate metabolic reprogramming of glioma using compartmental uptake (CU) characteristics in O-(2-18F-fluoroethyl)-l-tyrosine (FET) PET and to evaluate its diagnostic potential for IDH genotyping. Methods: Between 2017 and 2022, patients with confirmed glioma were preoperatively investigated using static 18F-FET PET. Metabolic tumor volume (MTV), MTV for 60%-100% uptake (MTV60), and T2-weighted and contrast-enhancing lesion volumes were automatically segmented using U-Net neural architecture and isocontouring. Volume intersections were determined using the Dice coefficient. Uptake characteristics were determined for metabolically defined compartments (central [80%-100%] and peripheral [60%-75%] areas of 18F-FET uptake). CU ratio was defined as the fraction between the peripheral and central compartments. Mean target-to-background ratio was calculated. Comparisons were performed using parametric and nonparametric tests. Receiver-operating-characteristic curves, regression, and correlation were used for statistical analysis. Results: In total, 52 participants (male, 27, female, 25; mean age ± SD, 51 ± 16 y) were evaluated. MTV60 was greater and distinct from contrast-enhancing lesion volume (P = 0.046). IDH-mutated tumors presented a greater volumetric CU ratio and SUV CU ratio than IDH wild-type tumors (P < 0.05). Volumetric CU ratio determined IDH genotype with excellent diagnostic performance (area under the curve [AUC], 0.88; P < 0.001) at more than 5.49 (sensitivity, 86%, specificity, 90%), because IDH-mutated tumors presented a greater peripheral metabolic compartment than IDH wild-type tumors (P = 0.045). MTV60 and MTV were not suitable for IDH classification (P > 0.05). SUV CU ratio (AUC, 0.72; P = 0.005) and target-to-background ratio (AUC, 0.68; P = 0.016) achieved modest diagnostic performance-inferior to the volumetric CU ratio. Furthermore, the classification of loss of heterozygosity of chromosomes 1p and 19q (AUC, 0.75; P = 0.019), MGMT promoter methylation (AUC, 0.70; P = 0.011), and ATRX loss (AUC, 0.73; P = 0.004) by amino acid PET was evaluated. Conclusion: We proposed parametric 18F-FET PET as a noninvasive metabolic biomarker for the evaluation of CU characteristics, which differentiated IDH genotype with excellent diagnostic performance, establishing a critical association between spatial metabolic heterogeneity, mitochondrial tricarboxylic acid cycle, and genomic features with critical implications for clinical management and the diagnostic workup of patients with central nervous system cancer.

Quantitative analysis using intraoperative contrast-enhanced ultrasound in adult-type diffuse gliomas with isocitrate dehydrogenase mutations: association between hemodynamics and molecular features. Ultrasonography 2023; 42:561-571. [PMID: 37710388 PMCID: PMC10555694 DOI: 10.14366/usg.23031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2023] [Revised: 07/15/2023] [Accepted: 07/17/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The relationship between contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) hemodynamics and the molecular biomarkers of adult-type diffuse gliomas, particularly isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH), remains unclear. This study was conducted to provide a comprehensive description of the vascularization of adult-type diffuse gliomas using quantitative indicators. Additionally, it was designed to identify any variables with the potential to intraoperatively predict IDH mutation status. METHODS This prospective study enrolled patients with adult-type diffuse gliomas between November 2021 and September 2022. Intraoperative CEUS was performed, and CEUS videos were recorded for 90-second periods. Hemodynamic parameters, including the peak enhancement (PE) difference, were calculated based on the time-intensity curve of the region of interest. A differential analysis was performed on the CEUS parameters with respect to molecular biomarkers and grades. Receiver operating characteristic curves for various parameters were analyzed to evaluate the ability of those parameters to predict IDH mutation status. RESULTS Sixty patients with adult-type diffuse gliomas were evaluated. All hemodynamic parameters, apart from rising time, demonstrated significant differences between IDH-mutant and IDH-wildtype adult-type diffuse gliomas. The PE difference emerged as the optimal indicator for differentiating between IDH-wildtype and IDH-mutant gliomas, with an area under the curve of 0.958 (95% confidence interval, 0.406 to 0.785). Additionally, the hemodynamic parameters revealed significant differences across both grades and types of adult-type diffuse gliomas. CONCLUSION Hemodynamic parameters can be used intraoperatively to effectively distinguish between IDHwildtype and IDH-mutant adult-type diffuse gliomas. Additionally, quantitative CEUS equips neurosurgeons with dynamic perfusion information for various types and grades of adult-type diffuse gliomas.

Rapid extraction-free detection of the R132H isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation in glioma using colorimetric peptide nucleic acid-loop mediated isothermal amplification (CPNA-LAMP). PLoS One 2023; 18:e0291666. [PMID: 37733671 PMCID: PMC10513201 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0291666] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2022] [Accepted: 09/03/2023] [Indexed: 09/23/2023] Open
Abstract
The R132H isocitrate dehydrogenase one (IDH1) mutation is a prognostic biomarker present in a subset of gliomas and is associated with heightened survival when paired with aggressive surgical resection. In this study, we establish proof-of-principle for rapid colorimetric detection of the IDH1-R132H mutation in tumor samples in under 1 hour without the need for a nucleic acid extraction. Colorimetric peptide nucleic acid loop-mediated isothermal amplification (CPNA-LAMP) utilizes 4 conventional LAMP primers, a blocking PNA probe complementary to the wild-type sequence, and a self-annealing loop primer complementary to the single nucleotide variant to only amplify the DNA sequence containing the mutation. This assay was evaluated using IDH1-WT or IDH1-R132H mutant synthetic DNA, wild-type or IDH1-R132H mutant U87MG cell lysates, and tumor lysates from archived patient samples in which the IDH1 status was previously determined using immunohistochemistry (IHC). Reactions were performed using a hot water bath and visually interpreted as positive by a pink-to-yellow color change. Results were subsequently verified using agarose gel electrophoresis. CPNA-LAMP successfully detected the R132H single nucleotide variant, and results from tumor lysates yielded 100% concordance with IHC results, including instances when the single nucleotide variant was limited to a portion of the tumor. Importantly, when testing the tumor lysates, there were no false positive or false negative results.

Non-Invasive Assessment of Isocitrate Dehydrogenase-Mutant Gliomas Using Optimized Proton Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy on a Routine Clinical 3-Tesla MRI. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:4453. [PMID: 37760422 PMCID: PMC10526791 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15184453] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2023] [Revised: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 08/31/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation has become one of the most important prognostic biomarkers in glioma management, indicating better treatment response and prognosis. IDH mutations confer neomorphic activity leading to the conversion of alpha-ketoglutarate (α-KG) to 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG). The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical potential of proton MR spectroscopy (1H-MRS) in identifying IDH-mutant gliomas by detecting characteristic resonances of 2HG and its complex interplay with other clinically relevant metabolites. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-two patients with suspected infiltrative glioma underwent a single-voxel (SVS, n = 17) and/or single-slice-multivoxel (1H-MRSI, n = 15) proton MR spectroscopy (1H-MRS) sequence with an optimized echo-time (97 ms) on 3T-MRI. Spectroscopy data were analyzed using the linear combination (LC) model. Cramér-Rao lower bound (CRLB) values of <40% were considered acceptable for detecting 2HG and <20% for other metabolites. Immunohistochemical analyses for determining IDH mutational status were subsequently performed from resected tumor specimens and findings were compared with the results from spectral data. Mann-Whitney and chi-squared tests were performed to ascertain differences in metabolite levels between IDH-mutant and IDH-wild-type gliomas. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were also performed. RESULTS Data from eight cases were excluded due to poor spectral quality or non-tumor-related etiology, and final data analyses were performed from 24 cases. Of these cases, 9/12 (75%) were correctly identified as IDH-mutant or IDH-wildtype gliomas through SVS and 10/12 (83%) through 1H-MRSI with an overall concordance rate of 79% (19/24). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value were 80%, 77%, 86%, and 70%, respectively. The metabolite 2HG was found to be significant in predicting IDH-mutant gliomas through the chi-squared test (p < 0.01). The IDH-mutant gliomas also had a significantly higher NAA/Cr ratio (1.20 ± 0.09 vs. 0.75 ± 0.12 p = 0.016) and lower Glx/Cr ratio (0.86 ± 0.078 vs. 1.88 ± 0.66; p = 0.029) than those with IDH wild-type gliomas. The areas under the ROC curves for NAA/Cr and Glx/Cr were 0.808 and 0.786, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Noninvasive optimized 1H-MRS may be useful in predicting IDH mutational status and 2HG may serve as a valuable diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in patients with gliomas.

Abstract
Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status has emerged as an important prognostic marker in gliomas. This study sought to develop deep learning networks for non-invasive IDH classification using T2w MR images while comparing their performance to a multi-contrast network. Methods: Multi-contrast brain tumor MRI and genomic data were obtained from The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA) and The Erasmus Glioma Database (EGD). Two separate 2D networks were developed using nnU-Net, a T2w-image-only network (T2-net) and a multi-contrast network (MC-net). Each network was separately trained using TCIA (227 subjects) or TCIA + EGD data (683 subjects combined). The networks were trained to classify IDH mutation status and implement single-label tumor segmentation simultaneously. The trained networks were tested on over 1100 held-out datasets including 360 cases from UT Southwestern Medical Center, 136 cases from New York University, 175 cases from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, 456 cases from EGD (for the TCIA-trained network), and 495 cases from the University of California, San Francisco public database. A receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was drawn to calculate the AUC value to determine classifier performance. Results: T2-net trained on TCIA and TCIA + EGD datasets achieved an overall accuracy of 85.4% and 87.6% with AUCs of 0.86 and 0.89, respectively. MC-net trained on TCIA and TCIA + EGD datasets achieved an overall accuracy of 91.0% and 92.8% with AUCs of 0.94 and 0.96, respectively. We developed reliable, high-performing deep learning algorithms for IDH classification using both a T2-image-only and a multi-contrast approach. The networks were tested on more than 1100 subjects from diverse databases, making this the largest study on image-based IDH classification to date.

Association of partial T2-FLAIR mismatch sign and isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation in WHO grade 4 gliomas: results from the ReSPOND consortium. Neuroradiology 2023; 65:1343-1352. [PMID: 37468750 PMCID: PMC11058040 DOI: 10.1007/s00234-023-03196-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2023] [Accepted: 07/07/2023] [Indexed: 07/21/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE While the T2-FLAIR mismatch sign is highly specific for isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant, 1p/19q-noncodeleted astrocytomas among lower-grade gliomas, its utility in WHO grade 4 gliomas is not well-studied. We derived the partial T2-FLAIR mismatch sign as an imaging biomarker for IDH mutation in WHO grade 4 gliomas. METHODS Preoperative MRI scans of adult WHO grade 4 glioma patients (n = 2165) from the multi-institutional ReSPOND (Radiomics Signatures for PrecisiON Diagnostics) consortium were analyzed. Diagnostic performance of the partial T2-FLAIR mismatch sign was evaluated. Subset analyses were performed to assess associations of imaging markers with overall survival (OS). RESULTS One hundred twenty-one (5.6%) of 2165 grade 4 gliomas were IDH-mutant. Partial T2-FLAIR mismatch was present in 40 (1.8%) cases, 32 of which were IDH-mutant, yielding 26.4% sensitivity, 99.6% specificity, 80.0% positive predictive value, and 95.8% negative predictive value. Multivariate logistic regression demonstrated IDH mutation was significantly associated with partial T2-FLAIR mismatch (odds ratio [OR] 5.715, 95% CI [1.896, 17.221], p = 0.002), younger age (OR 0.911 [0.895, 0.927], p < 0.001), tumor centered in frontal lobe (OR 3.842, [2.361, 6.251], p < 0.001), absence of multicentricity (OR 0.173, [0.049, 0.612], p = 0.007), and presence of cystic (OR 6.596, [3.023, 14.391], p < 0.001) or non-enhancing solid components (OR 6.069, [3.371, 10.928], p < 0.001). Multivariate Cox analysis demonstrated cystic components (p = 0.024) and non-enhancing solid components (p = 0.003) were associated with longer OS, while older age (p < 0.001), frontal lobe center (p = 0.008), multifocality (p < 0.001), and multicentricity (p < 0.001) were associated with shorter OS. CONCLUSION Partial T2-FLAIR mismatch sign is highly specific for IDH mutation in WHO grade 4 gliomas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extensive surgical resection has been found to be associated with longer survival in patients with gliomas, but the interactive prognostic value of molecular pathology of the surgical resection is unclear. This study evaluated the impact of molecular pathology and clinical characteristics on the surgical benefit in WHO grade 3 IDH-mutant gliomas. METHODS Clinical and pathological information of 246 patients with WHO grade 3 IDH-mutant gliomas were collected from the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas database (2006-2020). The role of the extent of resection on overall survival, stratified by molecular pathology and clinical characteristics, was investigated. We then assessed prognostic factors using a univariate log-rank test and multivariate Cox proportional hazards model in the subgroups. RESULTS The extent of resection was an independent prognostic factor in the entire cohort, even when adjusted for molecular pathology. Gross total resection was found to be associated with longer survival in all patients and in the astrocytoma group but not in the oligodendroglioma group. Compared with subtotal resections, gross total resections resulted in a longer survival time for astrocytoma patients aged ≤ 45 years. However, there was no survival benefit from total resection in patients with astrocytoma aged > 45 years. CONCLUSIONS Extensive resection benefits only a proportion of patients with WHO grade 3 IDH-mutant gliomas. Younger patients with astrocytomas had survival benefits from extensive resection. In addition to clinical characteristics (especially age), molecular pathology impacted prognosis in patients with gliomas. Our findings provide guiding information to neurosurgeons while planning surgeries.

Supramaximal versus gross total resection in Glioblastoma, IDH wild-type and Astrocytoma, IDH-mutant, grade 4, effect on overall and progression free survival: systematic review and meta-analysis. J Neurooncol 2023; 164:31-41. [PMID: 37561356 DOI: 10.1007/s11060-023-04409-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 08/11/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To synthesize the evidence on the impact on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of supramaximal resection (SMR) over gross total resection (GTR) in Glioblastoma, IDH wild-type and Astrocytoma, IDH-mutant, grade 4 (Glioblastoma). METHODS The PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Ovid and Cochrane databases were systematically searched (up to November 30, 2022). Studies reporting OS and PFS on adult humans with a suspected Glioblastoma, treated either with a SMR or GTR were included. Hazard ratios were estimated for each study and treatment effects were calculated through DerSimonian and Laird random effects models. RESULTS The literature search yielded 14 studies published between 2013 and 2022, enrolling a total of 6779 patients. Analysis of the included studies reveals significantly better clinical outcomes favoring SMR over GTR in terms of PFS (HR 0.67; p = 0.0007), and OS (HR 0.7; p = 0.0001). CONCLUSION Glioblastoma, IDH wild-type and Astrocytoma, IDH-mutant, grade 4, are aggressive tumors with a very short long-term OS. SMR is an effective therapeutic approach contributing to increased PFS and OS in patients with this catastrophic disease.

Abstract
Glioblastomas (GBMs) are the most common and aggressive primary brain tumors, and despite advances in treatment, prognosis remains poor. The extent of resection has been widely recognized as a key factor affecting survival outcomes in GBM patients. The surgical principle of "maximal safe resection" has been widely applied to balance tumor removal and neurological function preservation. Historically, T1-contrast enhanced (T1CE) extent of resection has been the focus of research; however, the "supramaximal resection" concept has emerged, advocating for even greater tumor resection while maintaining neurological function. Recent studies have demonstrated potential survival benefits associated with resection beyond T1CE extent in GBMs. This review explores the developing consensus and newly established criteria for "supramaximal resection" in GBMs, with a focus on T2-extent of resection. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses on supramaximal resection are summarized, and the Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) resect group classification for extent of resection is introduced. The evolving understanding of the role of supramaximal resection in GBMs may lead to improved patient outcomes and more objective criteria for evaluating the extent of tumor resection.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Lower-grade (grade 2-3) gliomas (LGGs) constitutes a group of primary brain tumors with variable clinical behaviors and treatment responses. Recent advancements in molecular biology have redefined their classification, and novel imaging modalities emerged for the noninvasive diagnosis and follow-up. AREAS COVERED This review comprehensively analyses the current knowledge on molecular and imaging biomarkers in LGGs. Key molecular alterations, such as IDH mutations and 1p/19q codeletion, are discussed for their prognostic and predictive implications in guiding treatment decisions. Moreover, the authors explore theranostic biomarkers for the potential of tailored therapies. Additionally, they also describe the utility of advanced imaging modalities, including widely available techniques, as dynamic susceptibility contrast perfusion-weighted imaging and less validated, emerging approaches, for the noninvasive LGGs characterization and follow-up. EXPERT OPINION The integration of molecular markers enhanced the stratification of LGGs, leading to the new concept of integrated histomolecular classification. While the IDH mutation is an established key prognostic and predictive marker, recent results from IDH inhibitors trials showed its potential value as a theranostic marker. In this setting, advanced MRI techniques such as 2-D-hydroxyglutarate spectroscopy are very promising for the noninvasive diagnosis and monitoring of LGGs. This progress offers exciting prospects for personalized medicine and improved treatment outcomes in LGGs.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive glial tumor of the central nervous system. Despite intense scientific efforts, patients diagnosed with GBM and treated with the current standard of care have a median survival of only 15 months. Patients are initially treated by a neurosurgeon with the goal of maximal safe resection of the tumor. Obtaining tissue samples during surgery is indispensable for the diagnosis of GBM. Technological improvements, such as navigation systems and intraoperative monitoring, significantly advanced the possibility of safe gross tumor resection. Usually within six weeks after the surgery, concomitant radiotherapy and chemotherapy with temozolomide are initiated. However, current radiotherapy regimens are based on population-level studies and could also be improved. Implementing artificial intelligence in radiotherapy planning might be used to individualize treatment plans. Furthermore, detailed genetic and molecular markers of the tumor could provide patient-tailored immunochemotherapy. In this article, we review current standard of care and possibilities of personalizing these treatments. Additionally, we discuss novel individualized therapeutic options with encouraging results. Due to inherent heterogeneity of GBM, applying patient-tailored treatment could significantly prolong survival of these patients.

Abstract
Gliomas are considered one of the most malignant cancers in the body. Despite current therapies, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, these tumors usually recur with more aggressive and resistant phenotypes. Indeed, the survival following these conventional therapies is very poor, which makes immunotherapy the subject of active research at present. The anti-tumor immune response could also be considered a prognostic factor since each stage of cancer development is regulated by immune cells. However, glioma microenvironment contains malignant cells that secrete numerous chemokines, cytokines and growth factors, promoting the infiltration of immunosuppressive cells into the tumor, which limit the functioning of the immune system against glioma cells. Recently, researchers have been able to reverse the immune resistance of cancer cells and thus activate the anti-tumor immune response through different immunotherapy strategies. Here, we review the general concept of glioma's immune microenvironment and report the impact of its distinct components on the anti-tumor immune response. We also discuss the mechanisms of glioma cell evasion from the immune response and pinpoint some potential therapeutic pathways, which could alleviate such resistance.

Abstract
This article reviews recent developments in the application of cell-free DNA-based liquid biopsies to neurological diseases. Over the past few decades, an explosion of interest in the use of accessible biofluids to identify and track molecular disease has revolutionized the fields of oncology, prenatal medicine and others. More recently, technological advances in signal detection have allowed for informative analysis of biofluids that are typically sparse in cells and other circulating components, such as CSF. In parallel, advancements in epigenetic profiling have allowed for novel applications of liquid biopsies to diseases without characteristic mutational profiles, including many degenerative, autoimmune, inflammatory, ischaemic and infectious disorders. These events have paved the way for a wide array of neurological conditions to benefit from enhanced diagnostic, prognostic, and treatment abilities through the use of liquid biomarkers: a 'liquid biopsy' approach. This review includes an overview of types of liquid biopsy targets with a focus on circulating cell-free DNA, methods used to identify and probe potential liquid biomarkers, and recent applications of such biomarkers to a variety of complex neurological conditions including CNS tumours, stroke, traumatic brain injury, Alzheimer's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis and neuroinfectious disease. Finally, the challenges of translating liquid biopsies to use in clinical neurology settings-and the opportunities for improvement in disease management that such translation may provide-are discussed.

Abstract
Liquid biopsy techniques based on deep sequencing of plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) could detect the low-frequency somatic mutations and provide an accurate diagnosis for many cancers. However, for brain gliomas, reliable performance of these techniques currently requires obtaining cfDNA from patients' cerebral spinal fluid, which is cumbersome and risky. Here we report a liquid biopsy method based on sequencing of plasma cfDNA fragments carrying 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) using selective chemical labeling (hMe-Seal). We first constructed a dataset including 180 glioma patients and 229 non-glioma controls. We found marked concordance between cfDNA hydroxymethylome and the aberrant transcriptome of the underlying gliomas. Functional analysis also revealed overrepresentation of the differentially hydroxymethylated genes (DhmGs) in oncogenic and neural pathways. After splitting our dataset into training and test cohort, we showed that a penalized logistic model constructed with training set DhmGs could distinguish glioma patients from healthy controls in both our test set (AUC = 0.962) and an independent dataset (AUC = 0.930) consisting of 111 gliomas and 111 controls. Additionally, the DhmGs between gliomas with mutant and wild-type isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) could be used to train a cfDNA predictor of the IDH mutation status of the underlying tumor (AUC = 0.816), and patients with predicted IDH mutant gliomas had significantly better outcome (P = .01). These results indicate that our plasma cfDNA 5hmC sequencing method could obtain glioma-specific signals, which may be used to noninvasively detect these patients and predict the aggressiveness of their tumors.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutant gliomas are a distinct type of primary brain tumors with unique characteristics, behavior, and disease outcomes. This article provides a review of standard of care treatment options and innovative, therapeutic approaches that are currently under investigation for these tumors. RECENT FINDINGS Extensive pre-clinical data and a variety of clinical studies support targeting IDH mutations in glioma using different mechanisms, which include direct inhibition and immunotherapies that target metabolic and epigenomic vulnerabilities caused by these mutations. IDH mutations have been recognized as an oncogenic driver in gliomas for more than a decade and as a positive prognostic factor influencing the research for new therapeutic methods including IDH inhibitors, DNA repair inhibitors, and immunotherapy.

Abstract
Gemistocytic differentiation is a rare histological feature seen in IDH mutant Astrocytomas. The 2021 World Health Organization (WHO) retains the diagnosis of IDH mutant Astrocytoma with its classical histology and tumors with the rare histological pattern of gemistocytic differentiation. Gemistocytic differentiation has historically been associated with a worse prognosis and shorter survival, and this prognostic difference has not been investigated in detail in our population. A population-based retrospective study included 56 patients with IDH mutant Astrocytoma with Gemistocytic differentiation and IDH mutant Astrocytoma diagnosed between 2010 and 2018 in our hospital. Demographic, histopathological, and clinical parameters were compared between the two groups. Gemistocyte percentage, perivascular lymphoid infiltrates, and Ki-67 proliferation index were also analyzed. A Kaplan-Meier analysis was done to analyze any prognostic difference in the overall survival time between the two groups. Patients with an IDH mutant Astrocytoma having gemistocytic differentiation had an average survival period of 2 years, while patients diagnosed with an IDH mutant Astrocytoma had an average survival time of approximately 6 years. There was a statistically significant decrease in survival time (p = 0.005) for patients with tumors with gemistocytic differentiation. The percentage of gemistocytes and the presence of perivascular lymphoid aggregates did not correlate with survival time (p = 0.303 and 0.602, respectively). Tumors with gemistocytic morphology had a higher mean Ki-67 proliferation index (4.4%) than IDH mutant Astrocytoma (2.0%, p = 0.005). Our data suggest that IDH mutant Astrocytoma with Gemistocytic differentiation is an aggressive variant of IDH mutant Astrocytoma associated with a shorter survival time and an overall worse prognosis. This data might be helpful to clinicians in the future management of IDH mutant Astrocytoma with Gesmistocytic differentiation as an aggressive tumor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With the advent of the molecular era, the diagnosis and treatment systems of glioma have also changed. A single histological type cannot be used for prognosis grade. Only by combining molecular diagnosis can precision medicine be realized. OBJECTIVE To develop an automatic integrated gene detection system (AIGS) for intraoperative detection in glioma and to explore its positive role in intraoperative diagnosis and treatment. METHODS We analyzed the isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutation status of 105 glioma samples and evaluated the product's potential value for diagnosis; 37 glioma samples were detected intraoperatively to evaluate the feasibility of using the product in an actual situation. A blinding method was used to evaluate the effect of the detection technology on the accuracy of intraoperative histopathological diagnosis by pathologists. We also reviewed the current research status in the field of intraoperative molecular diagnosis. RESULTS Compared with next-generation sequencing, the accuracy of AIGS in detecting IDH1 was 100% for 105 samples and 37 intraoperative samples. The blind diagnostic results were compared between the 2 groups, and the molecular information provided by AIGS increased the intraoperative diagnostic accuracy of glioma by 16.2%. Using the technical advantages of multipoint synchronous detection, we determined the tumor molecular margins for 5 IDH-positive patients and achieved accurate resection at the molecular level. CONCLUSION AIGS can quickly and accurately provide molecular information during surgery. This methodology not only improves the accuracy of intraoperative pathological diagnosis but also provides an important molecular basis for determining tumor margins to facilitate precision surgery.

Long-term survival in patients with IDH-wildtype glioblastoma: clinical and molecular characteristics. Acta Neurochir (Wien) 2023; 165:1075-1085.

Abstract
BACKG ROUND Glioblastoma is an aggressive tumor that has a dismal prognosis even with multimodal treatment. However, some patients survive longer than expected. The objective of this study was to revisit patients diagnosed with glioblastoma according to the 2021 WHO classification and analyze clinical and molecular characteristics associated with long-term survival (LTS). METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 120 IDH-wildtype glioblastomas operated on at our institution between 2013 and 2018. We divided them into LTS patients, surviving more than 3 years, and non-LTS patients, and then compared their features. Additionally, we performed DNA methylation-based brain tumor classification in LTS patients. RESULTS Sixteen patients were long-term survivors. Age < 70 years, MGMT promoter methylation, extent of resection ≥ 95%, and administration of radiochemotherapy were associated with LTS (P = 0.005, P < 0.001, P = 0.048, and P = 0.008, respectively). In addition, when these factors were combined, the probability of LTS was 74% (95% CI: 62--84). The methylome analysis confirmed the diagnosis of glioblastoma in the majority of the tested LTS patients. Regarding subtypes, 29% of cases were mesenchymal (MES), 43% were RTK1, and 29% were RTK2. Interestingly, RTK1 and RTK2 cases tended to have longer overall survival than MES cases (P = 0.057). Moreover, the only tested LTS patient with an unmethylated MGMT promoter had an "adult-type diffuse high-grade glioma, IDH-wildtype, subtype E" rather than a glioblastoma. This tumor was characterized by multinucleated giant cells and a somatic mutation in POLE. CONCLUSIONS We suggest that glioblastoma patients with a combination of favorable prognostic factors can achieve LTS in 74% of cases. In addition, methylome analysis is important to ascertain the type of glioma in LTS patients, especially when the MGMT promoter is unmethylated.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive malignant adult brain tumor. Significant effort has been directed to achieve a molecular subtyping of GBM to impact treatment. The discovery of new unique molecular alterations has resulted in a more effective classification of tumors and has opened the door to subtype-specific therapeutic targets. Morphologically identical GBM may have different genetic, epigenetic, and transcriptomic alterations and therefore different progression trajectories and response to treatments. With a transition to molecularly guided diagnosis, there is now a potential to personalize and successfully manage this tumor type to improve outcomes. The steps to achieve subtype-specific molecular signatures can be extrapolated to other neuroproliferative as well as neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract
PURPOSE Molecular marker status is clinically relevant for treatment planning and predicting the prognosis of gliomas. This study aimed to assess whether quantitative imaging parameters from dynamic susceptibility contrast- (DSC-) and dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE)-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can predict the molecular marker status of lower-grade gliomas (LGGs). MATERIALS AND METHODS Overall, 132 patients with LGGs who underwent DSC- and DCE-MRI were retrospectively enrolled. Statuses of relevant molecular markers including isocitrate dehydrogenase isoenzyme (IDH), 1p19q codeletion, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), and telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) were collected. For each molecular marker, age, tumor diameter and location, and DSC- and DCE-MRI parameters, including the normalized cerebral blood volume (nCBV), volume transfer constant (Ktrans), rate transfer coefficient (Kep), extravascular extracellular volume fraction (Ve), and plasma volume fraction (Vp), were compared. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed. RESULTS The nCBV was significantly lower in LGGs with IDH mutation (p = .001) and TERT mutation (p = .027) than those without these mutations. Ktrans (p = .034), Ve (p = .023), and Vp (p = .044) values were significantly lower in MGMT methylated LGGs than in MGMT unmethylated LGGs. Perfusion parameters were not significantly associated with EGFR amplification and 1p19q codeletion. Young age (p < .001) and small diameter (p = .001) were significantly associated with IDH mutation. The nCBV was independently associated with IDH status (AUC, 0.817; 95% CI: 0.739-0.894). CONCLUSIONS DSC- and DCE-MRI parameters demonstrated correlations with molecular markers of LGGs. Especially, the nCBV can be helpful in predicting the IDH mutation status.

Isocitrate-dehydrogenase-mutant lower grade glioma in elderly patients: treatment and outcome in a molecularly characterized contemporary cohort. J Neurooncol 2023; 161:605-615. [PMID: 36648586 PMCID: PMC9992027 DOI: 10.1007/s11060-022-04230-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2022] [Accepted: 12/24/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Lower-grade glioma (LGG) is rare among patients above the age of 60 ("elderly"). Previous studies reported poor outcome, likely due to the inclusion of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wildtype astrocytomas and advocated defensive surgical and adjuvant treatment. This study set out to question this paradigm analyzing a contemporary cohort of patients with IDH mutant astrocytoma and oligodendroglioma WHO grade 2 and 3. METHODS Elderly patients treated in our department for a supratentorial, hemispheric LGG between 2009 and 2019 were retrospectively analyzed for patient-, tumor- and treatment-related factors and progression-free survival (PFS) and compared to patients aged under 60. Inclusion required the availability of subtype-defining molecular data and pre- and post-operative tumor volumes. RESULTS 207 patients were included, among those 21 elderlies (10%). PFS was comparable between elderly and younger patients (46 vs. 54 months; p = 0.634). Oligodendroglioma was more common in the elderly (76% vs. 46%; p = 0.011). Most patients underwent tumor resection (elderly: 81% vs. younger: 91%; p = 0.246) yielding comparable residual tumor volumes (elderly: 7.8 cm3; younger: 4.1 cm3; p = 0.137). Adjuvant treatment was administered in 76% of elderly and 61% of younger patients (p = 0.163). Uni- and multi-variate survival analyses identified a tumor crossing the midline, surgical strategy, and pre- and post-operative tumor volumes as prognostic factors. CONCLUSION Elderly patients constitute a small fraction of molecularly characterized LGGs. In contrast to previous reports, favorable surgical and survival outcomes were achieved in our series comparable to those of younger patients. Thus, intensified treatment including maximal safe resection should be advocated in elderly patients whenever feasible.

Abstract
We hypothesized that tocopherol succinate (TOS) and D-α-tocopherol polyethylene2000 succinate (TPGS2000) micelles could work as a drug delivery system while enhancing the anti-cancer efficacy of doxorubicin lauryl hydrazone derivative (DOXC12) for the treatment of glioblastoma. The DOXC12-TOS-TPGS2000 micelles were formulated with synthesized DOXC12 and TPGS2000. They showed a high drug loading of hydrophobic DOXC12 (29%), a size of <100 nm and a pH sensitive drug release behaviour. In vitro, fast uptake of DOXC12-TOS-TPGS2000 micelles by GL261 cells was observed. For cytotoxicity, DOXC12-TOS-TPGS2000 micelles were evaluated on two glioblastoma cell lines and showed synergism between DOXC12 and TOS-TPGS2000. The higher cytotoxicity of DOXC12-TOS-TPGS2000 micelles was mainly caused by necrosis. The DOXC12-TOS-TPGS2000 micelles seem to be a promising delivery system for enhancing the anticancer efficacy of doxorubicin in glioblastoma (GBM).

Abstract
Although machine learning (ML) has shown promise across disciplines, out-of-sample generalizability is concerning. This is currently addressed by sharing multi-site data, but such centralization is challenging/infeasible to scale due to various limitations. Federated ML (FL) provides an alternative paradigm for accurate and generalizable ML, by only sharing numerical model updates. Here we present the largest FL study to-date, involving data from 71 sites across 6 continents, to generate an automatic tumor boundary detector for the rare disease of glioblastoma, reporting the largest such dataset in the literature (n = 6, 314). We demonstrate a 33% delineation improvement for the surgically targetable tumor, and 23% for the complete tumor extent, over a publicly trained model. We anticipate our study to: 1) enable more healthcare studies informed by large diverse data, ensuring meaningful results for rare diseases and underrepresented populations, 2) facilitate further analyses for glioblastoma by releasing our consensus model, and 3) demonstrate the FL effectiveness at such scale and task-complexity as a paradigm shift for multi-site collaborations, alleviating the need for data-sharing.

Abstract
PURPOSE Gliomas are the most commonly occurring brain tumour in adults and there remains no cure for these tumours with treatment strategies being based on tumour grade. All treatment options aim to prolong survival, maintain quality of life and slow the inevitable progression from low-grade to high-grade. Despite imaging advancements, the only reliable method to grade a glioma is to perform a biopsy, and even this is fraught with errors associated with under grading. Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with amino acid tracers such as [18F]fluorodopa (18F-FDOPA), [11C]methionine (11C-MET), [18F]fluoroethyltyrosine (18F-FET), and 18F-FDOPA are being increasingly used in the diagnosis and management of gliomas. METHODS In this review we discuss the literature available on the ability of 18F-FDOPA-PET to distinguish low- from high-grade in newly diagnosed gliomas. RESULTS In 2016 the Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) and European Association for Neuro-Oncology (EANO) published recommendations on the clinical use of PET imaging in gliomas. However, since these recommendations there have been a number of studies performed looking at whether 18F-FDOPA-PET can identify areas of high-grade transformation before the typical radiological features of transformation such as contrast enhancement are visible on standard magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). CONCLUSION Larger studies are needed to validate 18F-FDOPA-PET as a non-invasive marker of glioma grade and prediction of tumour molecular characteristics which could guide decisions surrounding surgical resection.

A Review of the Role of Stereotactic Radiosurgery and Immunotherapy in the Management of Primary Central Nervous System Tumors. Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10112977. [PMID: 36428546 PMCID: PMC9687865 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10112977] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2022] [Revised: 11/15/2022] [Accepted: 11/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are widely used in the management of brain metastases. These therapies are commonly administered concurrently; as SRS may enhance anti-tumor immunity and responsiveness to ICIs. However, the use of ICIs with and without SRS in the management of primary brain tumors remains a controversial topic. Meningiomas are the most common nonmalignant and extra-parenchymal brain tumor, which often respond well to surgery and radiotherapy. However, higher grade meningiomas tend to be resistant to these treatments, and the use of chemotherapy and targeted agents in this setting have yielded disappointing results. Thus, there is heightened interest in the utilization of ICIs. Glioblastoma is the most common malignant primary intraparenchymal brain tumor. It is associated with a grim prognosis with a median overall survival of approximately 20 months, despite optimal therapy. While SRS in the adjuvant setting, and ICI in the recurrent setting, have failed to demonstrate a survival benefit, SRS in the preoperative setting has the potential to enhance anti-tumor immunity and responsiveness to ICIs. Thus, these treatments represent an attractive option to add to the armamentarium of meningioma and glioblastoma management. In this review, we provide a detailed overview of the evidence supporting the use of ICIs and SRS in each of these settings.

Abstract
Tissue microarrays (TMAs) are commonly used for the rapid analysis of large numbers of tissue samples, often in morphological assessments but increasingly in spectroscopic analysis, where specific molecular markers are targeted via immunostaining. Here we report the use of an automated high-throughput system based on desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) mass spectrometry (MS) for the rapid generation and online analysis of high-density (6144 samples/array) TMAs, at rates better than 1 sample/second. Direct open-air analysis of tissue samples (hundreds of nanograms) not subjected to prior preparation, plus the ability to provide molecular characterization by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), make this experiment versatile and applicable to both targeted and untargeted analysis in a label-free manner. These capabilities are demonstrated in a proof-of-concept study of frozen brain tissue biopsies where we showcase (i) a targeted MS/MS application aimed at identification of isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation in glioma samples and (ii) an untargeted MS tissue type classification using lipid profiles and correlation with tumor cell percentage estimates from histopathology. The small sample sizes and large sample numbers accessible with this methodology make for a powerful analytical system that facilitates the identification of molecular markers for later use in intraoperative applications to guide precision surgeries and ultimately improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Maximal safe surgical resection plays a key role in the care of patients with gliomas. A range of technologies have been developed to aid surgeons in distinguishing tumor from normal tissue, with the goal of increasing tumor resection and limiting postoperative neurological deficits. Technologies that are currently being investigated to aid in improving tumor control include intraoperative imaging modalities, fluorescent tumor makers, intraoperative cell and molecular profiling of tumors, improved microscopic imaging, intraoperative mapping, augmented and virtual reality, intraoperative drug and radiation delivery, and ablative technologies. In this review, we summarize the aforementioned advancements in neurosurgical oncology and implications for improving patient outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Gliomas arising from the insular cortex can be epileptogenic, with a significant proportion of patients having medically refractory epilepsy. The impact of surgery on seizure control for such tumors is not well established. In this study, the authors aimed to investigate seizure outcomes after resection of insular gliomas using a meta-analysis and institutional experience. METHODS Three databases (Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials) were systematically searched for published studies of seizure outcomes after insular glioma resection from database inception to March 27, 2021. In addition, data were retrospectively collected on all adults (age > 17 years) who had undergone insular glioma resection between June 1997 and June 2015 at the authors' institution. Primary outcome measures were seizure freedom rates at 1 year and the last follow-up. Secondary outcome measures consisted of persistent postoperative neurological deficit beyond 90 days, mortality, and tumor progression or recurrence. RESULTS Eight studies reporting on 453 patients who had undergone 460 operations were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled mean age of the patients was 42 years. The pooled percentages of patients with extents of resection (EORs) ≥ 90%, 70%-89%, and < 70% were 55%, 33%, and 11%, respectively. The pooled seizure freedom rate at 1 year was 73% for Engel class IA and 78% for Engel class I. The pooled seizure freedom rate at the last follow-up was 60% for Engel class IA and 79% for Engel class I. The pooled percentage of persistent neurological deficit beyond 90 days was 3%. At the authors' institution, 109 patients had undergone resection of insular glioma. A greater EOR was the only significant independent predictor of seizure freedom after surgery (HR 0.290, p = 0.017). The optimal threshold for seizure freedom corresponded to an EOR of 81%. Patients with an EOR > 81% had a significantly higher seizure freedom rate (OR 2.16, p = 0.048). CONCLUSIONS Maximal safe resection can be performed with minimal surgical morbidity to achieve favorable seizure freedom rates in both the short and long term. When gross-total resection is not possible, an EOR > 81% confers the greatest sensitivity and specificity for achieving seizure freedom.

Metabolic-related gene pairs signature analysis identifies ABCA1 expression levels on tumor-associated macrophages as a prognostic biomarker in primary IDHWT glioblastoma. Front Immunol 2022; 13:869061.

Abstract
Background Although isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation serves as a prognostic signature for routine clinical management of glioma, nearly 90% of glioblastomas (GBM) patients have a wild-type IDH genotype (IDHWT) and lack reliable signatures to identify distinct entities. Methods To develop a robust prognostic signature for IDHWT GBM patients, we retrospectively analyzed 4 public datasets of 377 primary frozen tumor tissue transcriptome profiling and clinical follow-up data. Samples were divided into a training dataset (204 samples) and a validation (173 samples) dataset. A prognostic signature consisting of 21 metabolism-related gene pairs (MRGPs) was developed based on the relative ranking of single-sample gene expression levels. GSEA and immune subtype analyses were performed to reveal differences in biological processes between MRGP risk groups. The single-cell RNA-seq dataset was used to examine the expression distribution of each MRG constituting the signature in tumor tissue subsets. Finally, the association of MRGs with tumor progression was biologically validated in orthotopic GBM models. Results The metabolic signature remained an independent prognostic factor (hazard ratio, 5.71 [3.542-9.218], P < 0.001) for stratifying patients into high- and low-risk levels in terms of overall survival across subgroups with MGMTp methylation statuses, expression subtypes, and chemo/ratio therapies. Immune-related biological processes were significantly different between MRGP risk groups. Compared with the low-risk group, the high-risk group was significantly enriched in humoral immune responses and phagocytosis processes, and had more monocyte infiltration and less activated DC, NK, and γδ T cell infiltration. scRNA-seq dataset analysis identified that the expression levels of 5 MRGs (ABCA1, HMOX1, MTHFD2, PIM1, and PTPRE) in TAMs increased with metabolic risk. With tumor progression, the expression level of ABCA1 in TAMs was positively correlated with the population of TAMs in tumor tissue. Downregulation of ABCA1 levels can promote TAM polarization towards an inflammatory phenotype and control tumor growth. Conclusions The metabolic signature is expected to be used in the individualized management of primary IDHWT GBM patients.

Abstract
Background: The crux in high-grade glioma surgery remains maximizing resection without affecting eloquent brain areas. Toward this, a myriad of adjunct tools and techniques has been employed to enhance surgical safety and efficacy. Despite intraoperative MRI and advanced neuronavigational techniques, as well as augmented reality, to date, the only true real-time visualization tool remains the ultrasound (US). Neuroultrasonography is a cost-efficient imaging modality that offers instant, real-time information about the changing anatomical landscape intraoperatively. Recent advances in technology now allow for the integration of intraoperative US with neuronavigation. Case Description: In this report, we present the resection technique for three cases of high-grade gliomas (two glioblastomas and one anaplastic astrocytoma). The patient presented with a variable clinical spectrum. All three cases have been performed using the Brainlab® neuronavigation system (BrainLAB, Munich, Germany) and the bk5000 US Machine® (BK Medical, Analogic Corporation, Peabody, Massachusetts, USA). Conclusion: Gross total resection was achieved in all three cases. The use of 3D navigated US was a reliable adjunct surgical tool in achieving favorable resection outcomes in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Terminology to describe extent of resection in glioblastoma is inconsistent across clinical trials. A surgical classification system was previously proposed based upon residual contrast-enhancing (CE) tumor. We aimed to (I) explore the prognostic utility of the classification system and (II) define how much removed non-CE tumor translates into a survival benefit. METHODS The international RANO resect group retrospectively searched previously compiled databases from seven neuro-oncological centers in the USA and Europe for patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma per WHO 2021 classification. Clinical and volumetric information from pre- and post-operative MRI were collected. RESULTS We collected 1008 patients with newly diagnosed IDHwt glioblastoma. 744 IDHwt glioblastomas were treated with radiochemotherapy per EORTC 26981/22981 (TMZ/RT→TMZ) following surgery. Among these homogenously treated patients, lower absolute residual tumor volumes (in cm 3) were favorably associated with outcome: patients with 'maximal CE resection' (class 2) had superior outcome compared to patients with 'submaximal CE resection' (class 3) or 'biopsy' (class 4). Extensive resection of non-CE tumor (≤5 cm 3 residual non-CE tumor) was associated with better survival among patients with complete CE resection, thus defining class 1 ('supramaximal CE resection'). The prognostic value of the resection classes was retained on multivariate analysis when adjusting for molecular and clinical markers. CONCLUSIONS The proposed "RANO categories for extent of resection in glioblastoma" are highly prognostic and may serve for stratification within clinical trials. Removal of non-CE tumor beyond the CE tumor borders may translate into additional survival benefit, providing a rationale to explicitly denominate such 'supramaximal CE resection'.

Current Considerations in the Treatment of Grade 3 Gliomas. Curr Treat Options Oncol 2022; 23:1219-1232.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Treatment recommendations for grade 3 gliomas are guided by their histopathologic and molecular phenotype. In the 2021 WHO classification, these tumors are categorized into two types, grade 3 IDH mutant (IDHmt), 1p/19q codeleted oligodendroglioma and IDH mutant astrocytoma. Treatment consists of maximal safe surgery, followed by radiation therapy (RT) and alkylating agent-based chemotherapy. Based on the updated CATNON result, RT followed by temozolomide improves outcome in patients with non-codeleted grade 3 IDHmt astrocytoma. In patients with IDHmt, codeleted oligodendroglioma, the addition of procarbazine, CCNU, and vincristine regimen is the recommended treatment, based on large randomized controlled trials. These current treatments prolong the overall survival to up to 10 years in patients with grade 3 IDHmt astrocytoma and 14 years in grade 3 IDHmt codeleted oligodendroglioma. Treatment options at recurrence include re-resection, re-irradiation, and other cytotoxic chemotherapy; however, these are of limited benefit. Novel agents targeting IDH mutation and its metabolic effects are currently under investigation to improve the outcome of these patients.
