PURPOSE: Glioblastoma is a malignant brain tumor with a poor prognosis. Genetic mutations associated with this disease are complex are not fully understood and require further elucidation for the development of new treatments. The purpose of this study was to comprehensively analyze genetic mutations in glioblastomas and evaluate the usefulness of RNA sequencing. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We analyzed 42 glioblastoma specimens that were resected in routine clinical practice and found wild-type variants of the IDH1 and IDH2 genes...

PURPOSE: The rarity of IDH2 mutations in supratentorial gliomas has led to gaps in understanding their radiological characteristics, potentially resulting in misdiagnosis based solely on negative IDH1 immunohistochemical staining. We aimed to investigate the clinical and imaging characteristics of IDH2-mutant gliomas. METHODS: We analyzed imaging data from adult patients with pathologically confirmed diffuse lower-grade gliomas and known IDH1/2 alteration and 1p/19q codeletion statuses obtained from the records of our institute (January 2011 to August 2022, Cohort 1) and The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA, Cohort 2)...

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) remains a devastating malignancy and a significant challenge to treat. The majority of CCA patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage, making the disease incurable in most cases. The advent of high-throughput genetic sequencing has significantly improved our understanding of the molecular biology underpinning cancer. The identification of 'druggable' genetic aberrations and the development of novel targeted therapies against them is opening up new treatment strategies. Currently, 3 targeted therapies are approved for use in CCA; Ivosidenib in patients with IDH1 mutations and Infigratinib/Pemigatinib in those with FGFR2 fusions...

The targeting of cancer cell intrinsic metabolism has emerged as a promising strategy for antitumor intervention. In the study, we identified the first-in-class small molecules that effectively inhibit both mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (mIDH1) and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), two crucial targets in cancer metabolism, through structure-based drug design. Notably, compound 23h exhibits excellent and balanced inhibitory activities against both mIDH1 (IC50 = 14.93 nM) and NAMPT (IC50 = 12...

Despite increasing numbers of regulatory approvals, deep learning-based computational pathology systems often overlook the impact of demographic factors on performance, potentially leading to biases. This concern is all the more important as computational pathology has leveraged large public datasets that underrepresent certain demographic groups. Using publicly available data from The Cancer Genome Atlas and the EBRAINS brain tumor atlas, as well as internal patient data, we show that whole-slide image classification models display marked performance disparities across different demographic groups when used to subtype breast and lung carcinomas and to predict IDH1 mutations in gliomas...

Ivosidenib is a first-in-class mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (mIDH1) inhibitor and has shown efficacy and tolerability in patients with advanced mIDH1 hematologic malignancies, leading to approval in front-line and relapsed/refractory (R/R) mIDH1 AML populations. We report final data from a phase I single-arm substudy (NCT02074839) of patients with R/R mIDH1 MDS following failure of standard-of-care therapies. Oral ivosidenib was taken once daily on days 1-28 in 28-day cycles. Primary objectives were to determine safety, tolerability, and clinical activity...

BACKGROUND: The incidence of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (IHCCA) is rising around the world. The disease is becoming a major global health issue. Conventionally, most patients with cholangiocarcinoma present with advanced disease and systemic therapy is the mainstay of treatment. This review discusses recent advances in systemic treatments for patients with IHCCA. SUMMARY: The addition of durvalumab to a gemcitabine plus cisplatin regimen has significantly improved overall survival in the phase 3 TOPAZ-1 trial and is currently recommended as a standard first-line treatment...

Gliomas are highly heterogeneous in molecular, histology, and microenvironment. However, a classification of gliomas by integrating different tumor microenvironment (TME) components remains unexplored. Based on the enrichment scores of 17 pathways involved in immune, stromal, DNA repair, and nervous system signatures in diffuse gliomas, we performed consensus clustering to uncover novel subtypes of gliomas. Consistently in three glioma datasets (TCGA-glioma, CGGA325, and CGGA301), we identified three subtypes: Stromal-enriched (Str-G), Nerve-enriched (Ner-G), and mixed (Mix-G)...

INTRODUCTION: Glioblastoma and astrocytoma, grade 4, are the most common and aggressive brain tumors. Several biomarkers, such as the isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation (IDH-1), alpha-thalassemia/mental retardation, and the X-linked mutation (ATRX), enable more accurate glioma classification and facilitate patient management. This study aimed to determine the prognostic value of clinical and molecular factors (IDH, TP53, and ATRX mutations). We also studied the relationship between these molecular markers and the overall survival (OS) of 126 patients with grade 4 glioblastoma/astrocytoma...

OBJECTIVE: We explored the correlation between the presence of isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) mutations and the incidence of postoperative epilepsy in patients with glioblastoma, as well as assessed the efficacy of preemptive administration of antiepileptic medications in mitigating the occurrence of postoperative epilepsy. METHODS: Fifty-three patients who received a postoperative pathological diagnosis of glioblastoma, were enrolled in this study. Tumor specimens were subjected to IDH1 gene analysis...

Isochlorate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) is an important metabolic enzyme for the production of α-ketoglutarate (α-KG), which has antitumor effects and is considered to have potential antitumor effects. The activation of IDH1 as a pathway for the development of anticancer drugs has not been attempted. We demonstrated that IDH1 can limit glycolysis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells to activate the tumor immune microenvironment. In addition, through proteomic microarray analysis, we identified a natural small molecule, scutellarin (Scu), which activates IDH1 and inhibits the growth of HCC cells...

PURPOSE: Ivosidenib (IVO), an isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) used for treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and cholangiocarcinoma. However, poor solubility, low bioavailability, high dose and side effects limit clinical application of IVO. METHODS: Ivosidenib-loaded PLGA nanoparticles (IVO-PLGA-NPs) and Ivosidenib-loaded chitosan coated PLGA nanoparticles (IVO-CS-PLGA-NPs) were prepared using emulsification and solvent evaporation method for the treatment of liver cancer...

This study introduces the GeneTerrain Knowledge Map Representation (GTKM), a novel method for visualizing gene expression data in cancer research. GTKM leverages protein-protein interactions to graphically display differentially expressed genes (DEGs) on a 2-dimensional contour plot, offering a more nuanced understanding of gene interactions and expression patterns compared to traditional heatmap methods. The research demonstrates GTKM's utility through four case studies on glioblastoma (GBM) datasets, focusing on survival analysis, subtype identification, IDH1 mutation analysis, and drug sensitivities of different tumor cell lines...

Glioblastoma (GBM) is a fatal brain tumour that is traditionally diagnosed based on histological features. Recent molecular profiling studies have reshaped the World Health Organization approach in the classification of central nervous system tumours to include more pathogenetic hallmarks. These studies have revealed that multiple oncogenic pathways are dysregulated, which contributes to the aggressiveness and resistance of GBM. Such findings have shed light on the molecular vulnerability of GBM and have shifted the disease management paradigm from chemotherapy to targeted therapies...

BACKGROUND: Panel-based comprehensive genomic profiling is used in clinical practice worldwide; however, large real-world datasets of patients with advanced gastric cancer are not well known. OBJECTIVE: We investigated what differences exist in clinically relevant alterations for molecularly defined or age-stratified subgroups. METHODS: This was a collaborative biomarker study of a real-world dataset from comprehensive genomic profiling testing (Foundation Medicine, Inc...

Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) is an autosomal dominant tumor predisposition syndrome caused by heterozygous germline mutations or deletions in the TP53 tumor suppressor gene. Central nervous system tumors, such as choroid plexus tumors, medulloblastomas, and diffuse gliomas, are frequently found in patients with LFS. Although molecular profiles of diffuse gliomas that develop in pediatric patients with LFS have been elucidated, those in adults are limited. Recently, diffuse gliomas have been divided into pediatric- and adult-type gliomas, based on their distinct molecular profiles...

PURPOSE: Subprotocol K2 (EAY131-K2) of the NCI-MATCH platform trial was an open-label, single-arm, phase II study designed to evaluate the antitumor efficacy of the oral FGFR1-4 inhibitor, erdafitinib, in patients with tumors harboring FGFR1-4 mutations or fusions. METHODS: Central confirmation of tumor FGFR1-4 mutations or fusions was required for outcome analysis. Patients with urothelial carcinoma were excluded. Enrolled subjects received oral erdafitinib at a starting dose of 8 mg daily continuously until intolerable toxicity or disease progression...

BACKGROUND: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous hematopoietic malignancy whose prognosis is associated with several biomarkers. Decitabine, a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitor, combined with cytarabine, aclarubicin hydrochloride, and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (DCAG), has been used in patients newly diagnosed with AML. This regimen has been especially used in older and fragile patients who are immunocompromised or have co-morbidities, as well as those with specific gene mutations...

The emergence of next generation sequencing and widespread use of mutational profiling in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has broadened our understanding of the heterogeneous molecular basis of the disease. Since genetic sequencing has become a standard practice, several driver mutations have been identified. Accordingly, novel targeted therapeutic agents have been developed and are now approved for the treatment of subsets of patients that carry mutations in FLT3, IDH1, and IDH2 [1, 2]. The emergence of these novel agents in AML offers patients a new modality of therapy, and shifts treatment paradigms toward individualized medicine...

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is characterized by uncontrolled proliferation of poorly differentiated myeloid cells, with a heterogenous mutational landscape. Mutations in IDH1 and IDH2 are found in 20% of the AML cases. Although much effort has been made to identify genes associated with leukemogenesis, the regulatory mechanism of AML state transition is still not fully understood. To alleviate this issue, here we develop a new computational approach that integrates genomic data from diverse sources, including gene expression and ATAC-seq datasets, curated gene regulatory interaction databases, and mathematical modeling to establish models of context-specific core gene regulatory networks (GRNs) for a mechanistic understanding of tumorigenesis of AML with IDH mutations...
