PurposeA prior Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) clinical trial in anaplastic oligodendroglioma suggested a progression-free survival benefit for procarbazine, lomustine, and vincristine (PCV) chemotherapy in addition to radiation therapy (RT), as have smaller trials in low-grade glioma (LGG).Patients and MethodsEligibility criteria included supratentorial WHO grade 2 LGG, age 18 to 39 years with subtotal resection/biopsy, or age ≥ 40 years with any extent resection. Patients were randomly assigned to RT alone or RT followed by six cycles of PCV. Survival was compared by using the modified Wilcoxon and log-rank tests.ResultsIn all, 251 patients were accrued from 1998 to 2002. Median overall survival (OS) time and 5-year OS rates for RT versus RT + PCV were 7.5 years versus not reached and 63% versus 72%, respectively (hazard ratio [HR]; 0.72; 95% CI, 0.47 to 1.10; P = .33; log-rank P = .13). Median progression-free survival (PFS) time and 5-year PFS rates for RT versus RT + PCV were 4.4 years versus not reached and 46% versus 63%, respectively (HR, 0.6; 95% CI, 0.41 to 0.86; P = .06; log-rank P = .005). OS and PFS were similar for all patients between years 0 and 2. After 2 years, OS and PFS curves separated significantly, favoring RT + PCV. For 2-year survivors (n = 211), the probability of OS for an additional 5 years was 74% with RT + PCV versus 59% with RT alone (HR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.30 to 0.90; log-rank P = .02).ConclusionPFS but not OS was improved for adult patients with LGG receiving RT + PCV versus RT alone. On post hoc analysis, for 2-year survivors, the addition of PCV to RT conferred a survival advantage, suggesting a delayed benefit for chemotherapy.

Abstract Background It has been reported that radiation therapy followed by PCV chemotherapy (procarbazine, lomustine and vincristine) could improve progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with high-risk WHO grade 2 gliomas after surgery. However, procarbazine is not available in China. In clinical practice, Chinese doctors often use radiotherapy combined with temozolomide to treat these patients, though large-scale prospective studies are lacking. This trial aims to confirm whether RT combined with temozolomide (TMZ) can improve PFS and OS in patients with high-risk low-grade gliomas (LGGs). Methods/design This is a two-group, randomized controlled trial (RCT) enrolling patients who have low-grade (WHO grade 2) gliomas aged 40 years or older without regard to the extent of resection or younger than 40 years old with subtotal resection or biopsy. An estimated 250 patients will be enrolled. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned to receive radiation therapy (RT) alone or RT plus temozolomide chemotherapy in a 1:1 ratio. The same RT will be given to all eligible participants regardless of whether they are randomly assigned to RT group or chemoradiotherapy (CRT) group. While in the CRT group, patients will receive adjuvant TMZ with or without concurrent radiochemotherapy. The primary outcome of this trial is progression-free survival and it will be analyzed by intention-to-treat (ITT). Secondary outcomes include OS, adverse events and cognitive function (CF). Discussion The objective of our research is to assess the effect of radiotherapy coupled with temozolomide in high-risk LGGs after surgery, compared with RT alone. Different histological types and molecular subtypes will be examined and subgroup analysis will be conducted based on them. Our data can provide evidence for postoperative adjuvant therapy in Chinese high-risk LGGs.

Abstract Background Optimum management of low-grade gliomas remains controversial, and widespread practice variation exists. This evidence-based meta-analysis evaluates the association of extent of resection, radiation, and chemotherapy with mortality and progression-free survival at 2, 5, and 10 years in patients with low-grade glioma. Methods A quantitative systematic review was performed. Inclusion criteria included controlled trials of newly diagnosed low-grade (World Health Organization Grades I and II) gliomas in adults. Eligible studies were identified, assigned a level of evidence for every endpoint considered, and analyzed according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. The relative risk of mortality and of progression at 2, 5, and 10 years was calculated for patients undergoing resection (gross total, subtotal, or biopsy), radiation, or chemotherapy. Results Gross total resection was significantly associated with decreased mortality and likelihood of progression at all time points compared to subtotal resection. Early radiation was not associated with decreased mortality; however, progression-free survival was better at 5 years compared to patients receiving delayed or no radiation. Chemotherapy was associated with decreased mortality at 5 and 10 years in the high-quality literature. Progression-free survival was better at 5 and 10 years compared to patients who did not receive chemotherapy. In patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 gene (IDH1) R132H mutations receiving chemotherapy, progression-free survival was better at 2 and 5 years than in patients with IDH1 wild-type gliomas. Conclusions Results from this review, the first to quantify differences in outcome associated with surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy in patients with low-grade gliomas, can be used to inform evidence-based management and future clinical trials.

OBJECTIVEWhile the effect of increased extent of resection (EOR) on survival in diffuse infiltrating low-grade glioma (LGG) patients is well established, there is still uncertainty about the influence of the new WHO molecular subtypes. The authors designed a retrospective analysis to assess the interplay between EOR and molecular classes.METHODSThe authors retrospectively reviewed the records of 326 patients treated surgically for hemispheric WHO grade II LGG at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Massachusetts General Hospital (2000–2017). EOR was calculated volumetrically and Cox proportional hazards models were built to assess for predictive factors of overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and malignant progression–free survival (MPFS).RESULTSThere were 43 deaths (13.2%; median follow-up 5.4 years) among 326 LGG patients. Median preoperative tumor volume was 31.2 cm3 (IQR 12.9–66.0), and median postoperative residual tumor volume was 5.8 cm3 (IQR 1.1–20.5). On multivariable Cox regression, increasing postoperative volume was associated with worse OS (HR 1.02 per cm3; 95% CI 1.00–1.03; p = 0.016), PFS (HR 1.01 per cm3; 95% CI 1.00–1.02; p = 0.001), and MPFS (HR 1.01 per cm3; 95% CI 1.00–1.02; p = 0.035). This result was more pronounced in the worse prognosis subtypes of IDH-mutant and IDH-wildtype astrocytoma, for which differences in survival manifested in cases with residual tumor volume of only 1 cm3. In oligodendroglioma patients, postoperative residuals impacted survival when exceeding 8 cm3. Other significant predictors of OS were age at diagnosis, IDH-mutant and IDH-wildtype astrocytoma classes, adjuvant radiotherapy, and increasing preoperative volume.CONCLUSIONSThe results corroborate the role of EOR in survival and malignant transformation across all molecular subtypes of diffuse LGG. IDH-mutant and IDH-wildtype astrocytomas are affected even by minimal postoperative residuals and patients could potentially benefit from a more aggressive surgical approach.

1500 Background: Treatment of adult LGG is controversial. Favorable patients (pts) (age <40 years [yrs] who undergo gross total resection [GTR]) are typically observed. Unfavorable pts (age ≥40 who have subtotal resection [STR] or biopsy [B]) are usually given initial radiation therapy (RT), reserving chemotherapy (historically procarbazine, CCNU and vincristine [PCV]) for recurrence. In 1998, the RTOG, in conjunction with SWOG, NCCTG, and ECOG initiated prospective studies of adult LGG, the results of which are reported herein. Methods: Favorable pts were observed postoperatively in a single arm Phase II study (Arm 1). Unfavorable pts were stratified by age, histology, KPS, and presence/absence of contrast enhancement on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging and randomized to either RT alone (54Gy in 30 fractions to a local treatment field) (Arm 2) or RT followed by 6 cycles of standard dose PCV (Arm 3). Reported results include overall survival (OS) rate, median overall survival time (MOST), progression-free survival (PFS) rate, and median progression-free survival time (MPFST). Survival data are compared using Wilcoxon p-values. Results: A total of 362 eligible/analyzable pts were accrued between 1998 and 2002. Median follow-up time is 4 years. For the 111 favorable pts observed on Arm 1, OS at 2- and 5-yrs is 99% and 94%. PFS at 2- and 5-yrs is 82% and 50%. For the 251 unfavorable pts on Arms 2 (RT alone) and 3 (RT+PCV), there was no difference in OS or PFS. OS at 2- and 5-yrs was 87% and 61% with RT alone versus (vs) 86% and 70% with RT+PCV (p=0.72). MOST was not reached in RT alone pts and was 6.0 yrs in RT+PCV pts. PFS at 2- and 5-yrs was 73% and 39% with RT alone vs 72% and 61% with RT+PCV (p=0.38). MPFST was 4.0 yrs with RT alone vs 6.0 yrs with RT+PCV. Acute grade 3–4 toxicity occurred in 9% of pts who received RT alone, 67% who received RT+PCV (mostly hematologic). There were no treatment deaths on either arm. Conclusions: 5-yr PFS was poor in all three arms ranging from 39% to 61%. Only half of favorable pts were disease-free at 5 yrs. In unfavorable pts, there was no OS advantage with the addition of PCV to RT. Both PFS and MPFST were better with the addition of PCV, but not significantly. Analysis of outcome by 1p19q status is pending. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Purpose The addition of PCV (procarbazine, lomustine, and vincristine) chemotherapy to radiotherapy (RT) for patients with WHO grade 2 glioma improves progression-free survival (PFS). The effect of therapy intensification on cognitive function (CF) remains a concern in this population with substantial long-term survival. Patients and Methods A total of 251 patients with WHO grade 2 glioma age ≥ 40 years with any extent of resection or age < 40 years with subtotal resection/biopsy were randomly assigned to RT (54 Gy) or RT plus PCV. We observed 111 patients age < 40 years with gross total resection. CF was assessed by Mini–Mental State Examination (MMSE) at baseline and years 1, 2, 3, and 5. Results Overall, few patients experienced significant decline in MMSE score. There were no significant differences in the proportion of patients experiencing MMSE score decline between the randomized study arms at any time point. Both study arms experienced a significant gain in average MMSE score longitudinally over time, with no difference between arms. Conclusion The MMSE is a relatively insensitive tool, and subtle changes in CF may have been missed. However, the addition of PCV to RT did not result in significantly higher rates of MMSE score decline than RT alone through 5 years of follow-up. Patients in both randomly assigned arms experienced a statistically significant average MMSE score increase over time, with no difference between arms. The addition of PCV chemotherapy to RT improves PFS without excessive CF detriment over RT alone for patients with low-grade glioma.

Abstract Abstract Background It has been reported that radiation therapy followed by PCV chemotherapy (procarbazine, lomustine and vincristine) could improve progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with high-risk WHO grade 2 gliomas after surgery. However, procarbazine is not available in China. In clinical practice, Chinese doctors often use radiotherapy combined with temozolomide to treat these patients, though large-scale prospective studies are lacking. This trial aims to confirm whether RT combined with temozolomide (TMZ) can improve PFS and OS in patients with high-risk low-grade gliomas (LGGs). Methods/design This is a two-group, randomized controlled trial (RCT) enrolling patients who have low-grade (WHO grade 2) gliomas aged 40 years or older without regard to the extent of resection or younger than 40 years old with subtotal resection or biopsy. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned to receive radiation therapy (RT) alone or RT plus temozolomide chemotherapy in a 1:1 ratio. The same RT will be given to all eligible participants regardless of whether they are randomly assigned to RT group or chemoradiotherapy (CRT) group. While in the CRT group, patients will receive adjuvant TMZ with or without concurrent radiochemotherapy. The primary outcome of this trial is progression-free survival and it will be analyzed by intention-to-treat (ITT). Secondary outcomes include OS, adverse events and cognitive function (CF). Discussion The objective of our research is to assess the effect of radiotherapy coupled with temozolomide in high-risk LGGs after surgery, compared with RT alone. Different histological types and molecular subtypes will be examined and subgroup analysis will be conducted based on them. Our data can provide evidence for postoperative adjuvant therapy in Chinese high-risk LGGs. Trial Registration Chinese Clinical Trial Registry, ChiCTR1800015199.

AbstractTo evaluate the surgical effect on survival in patients with incidental low-grade glioma (LGG) through comparison between asymptomatic and symptomatic patients. The medical records of surgically treated adult cerebral incidental LGG (iLGG) patients in our department between January 2008 and December 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. The survival of patients was calculated starting from the initial imaging diagnosis. Factors related to progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and malignant progression-free survival (MPFS) were statistically analyzed. Seventy-five iLGG patients underwent surgery: 49 in the asymptomatic group, who underwent surgery in the asymptomatic period, and 26 in the symptomatic group, who underwent surgery after the tumor had grown and the patients had developed tumor-related symptoms. Significantly more tumors were initially located adjacent to the functional area in the symptomatic group than in the asymptomatic group (P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference in the total resection rate between the two groups. The incidence of postoperative complications (15.4%) and postoperative epilepsy (23.1%) was higher in the symptomatic group than in the asymptomatic group (4.1% and 10.2%, respectively). Multivariate analysis showed that surgical timing, namely, surgery performed before or after symptom occurrence, had no significant effect on PFS, OS or MPFS, while total resection significantly prolonged PFS, OS and MPFS, and the pathology of oligodendroglioma was positively correlated with PFS and OS (P < 0.05). Surgical timing for iLGGs should facilitate total resection. If total resection can be achieved, even after symptom occurrence, patients can achieve comparable survival benefits to those treated with surgery in the asymptomatic phase.

Abstract BACKGROUND Low-grade gliomas (LGGs; WHO grade II) are incurable and ultimately progress to high-grade gliomas. The current treatment options are surgery followed by observation (“watch and wait”) for patients with lower risk for disease progression or postoperative chemoradiotherapy (high-risk population). There are no approved targeted therapies. IDH1 and IDH2 mutations (mIDH1/2) occur in approximately 80% and 4% of LGGs, respectively, and promote tumorigenesis via neomorphic production of D-2-hydroxyglutarate. Vorasidenib, an oral, potent, reversible, brain-penetrant pan-inhibitor of mIDH1/2, was evaluated in 76 patients with glioma in two phase 1 studies (dose escalation and perioperative) and was associated with a favorable safety profile at daily doses below 100 mg. Preliminary clinical activity was observed in non-enhancing glioma patients in both studies, with an objective response rate (ORR) of 18.2% and median progression-free survival of 31.4 months in the dose escalation study. METHODS Approximately 366 patients will be randomized 1:1 to vorasidenib (50 mg QD) or matched placebo and stratified by 1p19q status (intact vs co-deleted). Key eligibility criteria: age ≥ 12 years; grade II oligodendroglioma or astrocytoma (per WHO 2016 criteria) not in need of immediate treatment and without high-risk features; centrally confirmed mIDH1/2 status; ≥ 1 surgery for glioma with most recent ≥ 1 year but ≤ 5 years before randomization, and no other anticancer therapy; Karnofsky performance status ≥ 80%; and centrally confirmed measurable, non-enhancing disease evaluable by magnetic resonance imaging. Crossover from placebo to the vorasidenib arm is permitted upon centrally confirmed radiographic progression per RANO-LGG criteria. Primary endpoint: progression-free survival assessed by independent review. Secondary endpoints: safety and tolerability, tumor growth rate assessed by volume, ORR, overall survival, and quality of life. Clinical data will be reviewed regularly by an independent data monitoring committee. The study is currently enrolling patients in the US, with additional countries planned (NCT04164901).

Abstract BACKGROUND Tumour Protein 53 (TP53) is a tumour suppressor gene that is mutated in at least 50% of human malignancies. The prevalence of TP53 mutation is much higher in astrocytomas with reports of up to 75% TP53 mutant cases. Rare cases of TP53 mutation also exist in oligodendroglial tumours (10–13%). P53 pathway is therefore an important factor in low-grade glioma tumorigenesis. Although the prognostic impact of TP53 mutations has been studied previously, no concrete concordance were reached between the studies. In this study, we investigated the prognostic effects of TP53 mutation in astrocytoma and oligodendroglioma. MATERIAL AND METHODS A cohort of 65 matched primary and recurrent fresh frozen tumours were sequenced to identify hotspot exons of TP53 mutation. Exons 1 to 10 were sequenced and pathogenic mutations were mostly predominant between Exons 4 and 8. The cohort was further expanded with 78 low grade glioma fresh frozen tissues and hotspot exons were sequenced. Selecting only the primary tumour from 65 matched tumours, a total of 50 Astrocytoma cases and 51 oligodendroglioma cases were analysed for prognostic effects of TP53. Only pathogenic TP53 mutations confirmed through COSMIC and NCBI databases were included in the over survival and progression-free survival analysis. RESULTS 62% (31/50) of astrocytomas and 16% (8/51) of oligodendrogliomas harboured pathogenic TP53 mutations. Pathogenic hotspot mutations in codon 273 (c.817 C>T and c.818 G>A) was prevalent in astrocytoma with 58% (18/31) of tumours with these mutations. TP53 mutation status was maintained between primary and recurrent tumours in 93% of cases. In astrocytoma, overall survival of TP53 mutant patients was longer compared to TP53 wild-type patients (p<0.01) but was not significant after adjusting for age, gender, grade and IDH1 mutation status. In contrast, astrocytoma patients with specific TP53 mutation in codon 273 showed significantly better survival compared to other TP53 mutant and TP53 wild-type patients combined (p<0.01) in our multivariate analysis. Time to first recurrence (progression-free survival) of TP53 mutant patients was significantly longer than TP53 wild-type patients (p<0.01) after adjustments were made, while TP53 mutation in codon 273 was not prognostic for progression-free survival. In oligodendroglioma patients, TP53 mutations did not significantly affect overall survival and progression-free survival. CONCLUSION In agreement with others, TP53 mutation is more prevalent in Astrocytoma and mutations in codon 273 are significantly associated with longer survival.
