Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Glioblastomas are the most common and malignant brain tumors. For molecular classification of gliomas, we established a series of robust assays to screen IDH mutations, TERT promoter mutations, 1p/19q codeletion and MGMT methylation. Using these assays, a total of 951 adult gliomas including 453 glioblastomas collected through a multi-center collaboration were studied. We found that a molecular classification by a combination of IDH mutation and TERT mutation was strongly associated with prognosis of the glioma patients. In addition, we found that a significant interaction between TERT mutation and MGMT methylation was associated with prognosis of glioblastomas and that the combination of these alterations could serve as a useful prognostic marker. We have also established a Glioma Mutation Screening Panel for 93 genes known to be frequently mutated in gliomas. Using this panel, we are screening glioblastomas for mutations to identify a novel prognostic marker(s).
