Abstract
Purpose: Oligodendroglioma is an adult-type diffuse glioma defined by 1p/19q codeletion and IDH1/2 mutation. Treatment includes surgery followed by observation alone in select low-grade tumors, or combination radiation and chemotherapy with procarbazine, lomustine, and vincristine (PCV) or temozolomide (TMZ). While prospective studies investigating treatments for molecularly defined oligodendrogliomas are ongoing, this retrospective study analyzes the relationship between adjuvant regimens and progression-free survival (PFS).
Methods: Adults with IDH-mutant, 1p/19q codeleted oligodendroglioma (WHO grade 2 or 3) who underwent surgery between 2005 and 2021 were identified. Clinical data, disease characteristics, treatment, and outcomes were collected.
Results: A total of 207 patients with grade 2 and 70 with grade 3 oligodendrogliomas were identified. Median (IQR) follow-up was 57 (87) months. Patients with grade 3 tumors who received adjuvant radiation and PCV had longer median PFS (> 110 months) than patients who received radiation and TMZ (52 months, p = 0.008) or no adjuvant chemoradiation (83 months, p = 0.03), which was not seen in grade 2 tumors (p = 0.8). In multivariate analysis, patients who received PCV chemotherapy (Relative Risk [95% CI] = 0.24[0.05-1.08] and radiotherapy (0.46[0.21-1.02]) trended towards longer PFS, independently of grade.
Conclusion: Adjuvant radiation and PCV are associated with improved PFS over radiation with TMZ in patients with grade 3 molecularly defined oligodendrogliomas, and all-grade patients treated with PCV trended towards decreased risk of recurrence and progression. These results highlight the importance of ongoing clinical trials investigating these treatments.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Neuro-Oncology is a multi-disciplinary journal encompassing basic, applied, and clinical investigations in all research areas as they relate to cancer and the central nervous system. It provides a single forum for communication among neurologists, neurosurgeons, radiotherapists, medical oncologists, neuropathologists, neurodiagnosticians, and laboratory-based oncologists conducting relevant research. The Journal of Neuro-Oncology does not seek to isolate the field, but rather to focus the efforts of many disciplines in one publication through a format which pulls together these diverse interests. More than any other field of oncology, cancer of the central nervous system requires multi-disciplinary approaches. To alleviate having to scan dozens of journals of cell biology, pathology, laboratory and clinical endeavours, JNO is a periodical in which current, high-quality, relevant research in all aspects of neuro-oncology may be found.
