Summary: Mutations in both IDH1 and IDH2 play an important role in the development of gliomas, but the co-occurrence of IDH1 and IDH2 mutations in the same tumor is rare. This study describes a case of an IDH-mutant astrocytoma with both IDH1 and IDH2 mutations, and the patient remains disease-free after nine and a half years. Interrogation of cancer genomic databases and a systematic review confirm the rarity of the concurrent mutations.

Summary: Somatic mutations in the isocitrate dehydrogenase genes IDH1 and IDH2 are common in various tumor types, with gliomas showing a particularly high frequency of the IDH1(R132H) mutation. Patients with IDH1(R132H) mutations tend to have lower DNA methylation levels and higher gene expression compared to other IDH1/2 mutations. The different prognosis between IDH1(R132H) mutated astrocytomas and non-R132H IDH1/2-mutated astrocytomas highlights the clinical relevance of distinct IDH mutations.

Summary: IDH2 mutations in T-ALL are associated with older age, an immature phenotype, more frequent RAS gain-of-function mutations, and epigenetic regulator loss-of-function alterations. Conversely, IDH1 mutations appeared to be an independent prognostic factor in multivariate analysis.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the feasibility of DNA methylation array for simultaneous detection of glioma biomarkers. The research found that a DNA methylation signature could specifically distinguish IDH1/IDH2 mutant tumors, and copy number analysis using the array could identify 1p19q co-deletion tumors.

Summary: This study analyzed the mutation frequency of IDH1 and IDH2 genes in various cancers and found that they are most commonly mutated in gliomas. The mutations in these genes are associated with better overall survival and progression-free survival in gliomas.

Summary: The prevalence of IDH2 mutations is higher in Mexican Hispanic individuals compared to US individuals, contributing to the previously reported survival benefit of Hispanic patients. Post-progression survival is significantly shorter in patients from Mexico compared to the US, while overall survival remains similar.

Summary: Most diffuse gliomas are reported to have IDH mutations, although in clinical practice, results are often negative. This study found that IDH1 mutations had different frequencies in different types of gliomas, while IDH2 mutations were relatively rare. Patients with IDH1/2-wildtype anaplastic astrocytomas had poor prognosis similar to glioblastomas.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of IDH1/2 mutations on progression-free survival, overall response rate, and disease control rate in iCCA patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. The results showed that IDH1/2 mutations are not associated with increased sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy in iCCA patients. Furthermore, the analysis of TCGA data indicated that IDH1/2 mutated CCA did not show higher HRD compared to wild-type cases.

Summary: In a pilot perioperative randomized clinical trial, the dual IDH1/IDH2 inhibitor vorasidenib was found to have better brain permeability and target engagement than ivosidenib in patients with IDH1-mutant glioma. Both agents showed significant reduction in tumor 2-HG concentrations, with vorasidenib demonstrating more consistent suppression. Exploratory analyses revealed additional positive effects of 2-HG reduction. Vorasidenib was selected for further testing in phase 3 trials. This study was funded by Agios Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Servier Pharmaceuticals LLC.

Summary: The study reveals that the mitotic kinase Plk1 regulates the function of mutant IDH1 and IDH2 in mitosis. Plk1 phosphorylates mutant IDH1 and IDH2, thereby controlling their enzyme activity and ubiquitination. These findings suggest that Plk1 could be a potential therapeutic target in mutant IDH-linked tumors.

Summary: The study revealed that CDKN2A homozygous deletion had no significant impact on OS for patients with methylated MGMT status, but significantly affected OS for patients with unmethylated MGMT status. The impact of CDKN2A homozygous deletion on OS was more pronounced in the pre-BEV era, but became nonsignificant in the post-BEV era due to OS improvement in patients with this genetic marker.

Summary: This article describes a rare case in which a locally re-emerging glioma did not share genetic alterations with the primary tumor. Genetic sequencing revealed that mutations in the primary tumor disappeared in the re-emerging tumor, while new mutations were detected. This suggests that the initial and re-emerging tumors did not have a common origin.
