Genomic characterization of GBM A variety of genomic aberrations are associated with GBMs Heterogeneity appears to be common The clonal & subclonal composition of tumors are unique to individuals Subclonal structure may predict trajectory of disease progression Courtesy of Dr. Jennifer Morrissette, CPD, Penn 36
Determining whether a tumor is (mostly) clonal can be clinically useful One way this can be inferred is by analysis of allele frequencies of the different mutations detected If the allele frequencies differ, that could be interpreted as clonal evolution or different malignant clones If they are all approximately the same allele frequency then it could suggest a single clone Courtesy of Dr. Jennifer Morrissette 37
WHO 2016: Layered Diagnosis Integrated Diagnosis incorporating all aspects of tissue diagnosis Histological Classification WHO Grade reflects natural history, based on histology Molecular information Louis et al., Brain Pathology 2014 38
Example: initial diagnosis 1. Integrated Diagnosis: pending 2. Histologic diagnosis: diffuse glioma with atypia, mitoses, microvascular proliferation and necrosis 3. WHO grade: at least III 4. Molecular studies: pending 39
1. Integrated Diagnosis: pending 2. Histologic diagnosis: diffuse glioma with atypia, mitoses, microvascular proliferation and necrosis 3. WHO grade: at least III 4. Molecular studies: pending Final Diagnosis Integrated Diagnosis: GBM (primary type), WHO IV, IDH intact, 1p19q intact, ATRX intact, +/- EGFR-AMP 40
1. Integrated Diagnosis: pending 2. Histologic diagnosis: diffuse glioma with atypia, mitoses, microvascular proliferation and necrosis 3. WHO grade: at least III 4. Molecular studies: pending Final Diagnosis Integrated Diagnosis: GBM (secondary type), WHO IV, IDH mutated, 1p19q intact, ATRX loss 41
1. Integrated Diagnosis: pending 2. Histologic diagnosis: diffuse glioma with atypia, mitoses, microvascular proliferation and necrosis 3. WHO grade: at least III 4. Molecular studies: pending Final Diagnosis Integrated Diagnosis: Anaplastic Oligodendroglioma, WHO III, IDH mutated, 1p19q codeleted, ATRX intact 42
Three different possible final diagnoses GBM (primary type), WHO IV, IDH intact, 1p19q intact, ATRX intact, +/- EGFR-AMP GBM (secondary type), WHO IV, IDH mutated, 1p19q intact, ATRX loss Anaplastic Oligodendroglioma, WHO III, IDH mutated, 1p19q codeleted, ATRX intact 43
Do we need a microscope? Yes! Must make histological diagnosis of glioma first WHO grade is based mainly on histology Some gliomas do not have these diagnostic genetic changes 44
