Abstract:

Background: Molecular characterization of low grade gliomas (LGG) is essential for diagnosis and treatment of these diseases. LGG patients (pts) with IDH mutation and 1p19q codeletion (codel) are characterized by a median OS (mOS) longer than 10 years. Thus, the role of treatments and side effects should be carefully evaluated. Methods: We evaluated LGG pts from our data warehouse (n=679 pts) who received surgery and had sufficient tissue to assess biomarkers characterization. Pts with gliomatosis were excluded. IDH1/2 assessment was performed on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples by qPCR. In wild type cases we performed NGS. 1p/19 codel analysis was performed by FISH. Results: 93 consecutive LGG with IDH mutation and codel were included. The median follow up (FU) was 96.1 months. Mean age was 40 yrs (range: 25-66); 8 pts (8.6%) underwent biopsy, 61 pts (65.6%) partial resection, 24 pts (25.8%) complete resection. 84 pts (90.3%) were considered high risk using RTOG criteria (>40 years and/or incomplete resection). Fifty pts (53.7%) received only FU, 17 pts (18.3%) received chemotherapy (CT), 18 pts (19.4%) received radiotherapy (RT), 8 pts (8.6%) received RT + CT. Median PFS (mPFS) was 59.6 months (95%CI: 41.8-77.4) and was significantly longer in pts who received postsurgical treatments (79.5 months, 95%CI: 66.4-92.7) than pts who received FU (46.3 months, 95%CI: 36.0-56.5; P=0.001). mPFS was 50.8 months (95%CI: 17.4-84.3), 103.6 months (95%CI: 11.7-195.6) and 120.2 months (95%CI: 40.5-199.8) in pts treated with CT alone, RT alone and RT + CT, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that receiving a post-surgical treatment (P<0.001), and the extent of resection (P=0.043) were significantly correlated with PFS. Conclusions: Our study evaluated the role of treatments in LGG pts assessed with NGS and FISH. Post-surgical treatments are crucial to extend PFS in pts with IDH mutation and codel. The choice of post-surgical treatments seems to have a role, being CT alone less effective than RT and RT+CT. Longer FU is needed to provide information about OS.
