IDH1-Mutation in Diffuse Gliomas in Persons Age 55 Years and Over

Abstract: Diffuse astrocytoma (DA), anaplastic astrocytoma (AA), and glioblastoma (GBM) are defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) based on IDH-mutational status. The vast majority of IDH-mutated gliomas (90% of which involve a mutation in IDH1 R132H, which can be assessed by IDH1 immunohistochemistry [IHC]) occur in persons younger than 55 years of age. This raises the question as to the prevalence of IDH-mutant tumors in older persons and whether the gliomas in older patients should be routinely tested. Since … Show more

“…Of the six patients without available IDH status, all were age ≥55 years at the time of diagnosis. Recent reports suggest that <7% of patients age ≥55 years have IDH mutations on IHC 53 , 54 and an even smaller proportion (<1%) of patients in this age group will have a non-canonical mutation on sequencing after negative IHC 54 . Given the age criterion, there is a high likelihood that the patients who did not undergo IDH testing in our cohort were IDH -wild-type, rather than IDH -mutant.…”

“…In our study, only 2.4% (3/124) of the gliomas had IDH2 mutations. The vast majority of IDH mutated gliomas occur in patients younger than 55 years (Parsons et al, 2008; Robinson & Kleinschmidt‐DeMasters, 2017). In our study, only 9.5% (2/21) of patients with IDH mutated gliomas were older than 55 years.…”

“…The IDH and TERTp mutation status is often taken into consideration in molecular classification studies of gliomas (Kim et al, 2018; Pekmezci et al, 2017). Patients with IDH and TERTp glioma mutations have the best prognosis whereas only IDH mutation patients and only TERTp mutation patients have the worst prognosis (Robinson & Kleinschmidt‐DeMasters, 2017). Our study showed similar results.…”

“…Mutation in the metabolic enzyme isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (mIDH1) at active site residue R132H occur in ~20-25% of infiltrative gliomas ( 40 , 312 , 313 ). The mutation leads to gain-of-function catalytic activity that converts α-ketoglutarate (αKG) to the onco-metabolite (R)-2-hydroxyglutarate ((R)-2-HG) ( 40 , 314 , 315 ).…”
