Oligodendroglioma

Oligodendroglioma is a type of brain tumor that arises from the glial cells responsible for producing the myelin sheath that insulates nerve fibers.
These tumors are typically slow-growing and occur most often in the cerebral hemispheres of adults.
Symptoms may include headaches, seizures, and cognitive impairments.
Accurate diagnosis and optimal treatment planning are crucial for managing this condition.

To compare our methylation-based classification of CNS tumours with described methylation classes of brain tumours by the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) project, we downloaded the pre-processed methylation dataset described in Ceccarelli et al. 201618 including methylation data of 418 low grade glioma and 377 glioblastoma samples analysed by using the Illumina 450k array or 27k array platforms. To classify our samples according to the TCGA pan-glioma DNA methylation classification, we trained a Random Forest classifier on this dataset using the 1,300 CpG probe signature provided by the authors and using the default settings of the Random Forest algorithms implemented in the R package randomForest. The results of this classification for astrocytomas, oligodendrogliomas and glioblastomas are shown in Extended Data Figure 3d and are given on a case-by-case basis in Supplementary Table 2 and 4.

The tumor samples we analyzed were from 293 adults with previously untreated lower-grade gliomas (WHO grades II and III), including 100 astrocytomas, 77 oligoastrocytomas, and 116 oligodendrogliomas. Pediatric lower-grade gliomas were excluded; their molecular pathogenesis is distinct from that of lower-grade gliomas in adults.20 (link),21 (link) Diagnoses were established at the contributing institutions; neuropathologists in our consortium reviewed the diagnoses and ensured the quality of the diagnoses and of the tissue for molecular profiling (see Supplementary Appendix 1, available with the full text of this article at NEJM.org, for sample inclusion criteria). Patient characteristics are described in Table 1, and in Table S1 (Supplementary Appendix 2) and Table S2 in Supplementary Appendix 1. We obtained appropriate consent from relevant institutional review boards, which coordinated the consent process at each tissue-source site; written informed consent was obtained from all participants. The patients’ ages, tumor locations, clinical histories and outcomes, tumor histologic classifications, and tumor grades were typical of adults with a diagnosis of diffuse glioma.1 ,2 (link)

To better understand the genetic pathogenesis of gliomas and begin to identify potential glioma-specific molecular therapeutic targets, consistent molecular characterization of a large number of tumors is required.
This process was undertaken under a national prospective clinical trial that would eventually be IRB-approved both within the NCI intramural program as well as through both CTEP-sponsored adult brain tumor consortia (NABTT and NABTC protocol # 01-07). With the activation of this study, we collected matched tumor, blood and plasma from the 14 contributing institutions (National Institutes of Health, Henry Ford Hospital, Thomas Jefferson University, University of California San Francisco, H. Lee Moffitt Hospital, University of Wisconsin, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, University of California Los Angeles, M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Dana Farber Cancer Center, Duke University, Johns Hopkins University, Massachusetts General Hospital and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center). All tissue collected is sent to the Neuro-Oncology Branch laboratory for processing. The samples were provided as snap frozen sections of areas immediately adjacent to the region used for the histopathological diagnosis. Initial histopathological diagnosis is performed at the tissue collecting institution following the World Health Organization (WHO) standards(6 (link)). The initial diagnosis is reviewed by in-house neuropathologists to assure a measure of consistency across samples. To date, 874 complete frozen sample sets have been accrued, of those 389 are Glioblastoma Multiforme, 122 are Astrocytomas, 113 are Oligodendrogliomas, 33 are Mixed with the reminder still unclassified.
Clinical data on the patients is collected prospectively until the patient’s death through the NABTC Operations Office at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas and the NABTT Operations office at the Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD. The clinical data collected is updated into the Rembrandt database on a quarterly basis.
In order to assure consistency in the collection, shipment, processing, assaying, storage, data retrieval and dissemination, we have put together a series of standard operating procedures (SOPs) that have resulted in a streamlined, high-throughput operation capable of handling large numbers of samples in a consistent, operator-independent fashion. Consistency of data over time is continuously monitored by looking for any signs of batch effect in the analyses.

DNA was extracted from samples of primary brain tumor and xenografts and from patient-matched normal blood lymphocytes obtained from the Tissue Bank at the Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center at Duke University and collaborating centers, as described previously.17 (link) All analyzed brain tumors were subjected to consensus review by two neuropathologists. Table 1 lists the types of brain tumors we analyzed. The samples from glioblastomas included 138 primary tumors and 13 secondary tumors. Of the 138 primary tumors, 15 were from patients under the age of 21 years. Secondary glioblastomas were categorized as WHO grade IV on the basis of histologic criteria but had been categorized as WHO grade II or III at least 1 year earlier. Of the 151 tumors, 63 had been analyzed in our previous genomewide mutation analysis of glioblastomas. None of the lower-grade tumors were included in that analysis.16 (link)
In addition to brain tumors, we analyzed 35 lung cancers, 57 gastric cancers, 27 ovarian cancers, 96 breast cancers, 114 colorectal cancers, 95 pancreatic cancers, and 7 prostate cancers, along with 4 samples from patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia, 7 from patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, 7 from patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and 45 from patients with acute myelogenous leukemia. All samples were obtained in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. Acquisition of tissue specimens was approved by the institutional review board at the Duke University Health System and at each of the participating institutions.
Exon 4 of the IDH1 gene was amplified with the use of a polymerase-chain-reaction (PCR) assay and sequenced in DNA from the tumor and lymphocytes from each patient, as described previously.16 (link) In all gliomas and medulloblastomas without an R132 IDH1 mutation, exon 4 of the IDH2 gene (which contains the IDH2 residue equivalent to R132 of IDH1) was sequenced and analyzed for somatic mutations. In addition, we evaluated all astrocytomas and oligodendrogliomas of WHO grade I to grade III, all secondary glioblastomas, and 96 primary glioblastomas without R132 IDH1 mutations or R172 IDH2 mutations for alterations in the remaining coding exons of IDH1 and IDH2. All coding exons of TP53 and PTEN were also sequenced in the panel of diffuse astrocytomas, oligodendrogliomas, anaplastic oligodendrogliomas, anaplastic astrocytomas, and glioblastomas. EGFR amplification and the CDKN2A-CDKN2B deletion were analyzed with the use of quantitative real-time PCR in the same tumors.18 (link) We evaluated samples of oligodendrogliomas and anaplastic oligodendrogliomas for loss of heterozygosity at 1p and 19q, as described previously.15 (link),19 (link)

Pathological diagnosis of tumors within this study was based on the 2021 WHO classification of CNS tumors to the extent possible; however, many cases had insufficient information for precise classification using this system and some broader categories were also used29 (link). Available information on tumor pathologies were reviewed and samples were grouped into seven general pathological categories for further analysis by a neuropathologist (CGE). These categories included glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype (GBM, IDH-WT); astrocytoma, IDH-mutant (Astro, IDH-mt, Grade 2–4); oligodendroglioma (Oligo, IDH-mt, Grade 2–3); pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma (PXA, Grade 2–3); and pilocytic astrocytoma (PA). A subset of tumors did not fall into one of those diagnostic categories and were grouped based on their grade: other high-grade glioma (HGG; Grade 3–4) and other low-grade glioma (LGG; Grade 1–2). Overall survival (OS) was obtained from public databases or calculated from electronic medical records as time from radiographic diagnosis to date of death. Records from 13 adult patients treated with BRAF-targeted therapy were further reviewed to determine treatment type(s), duration, response, and time to progression(s).
We ran an optimal cut-point analysis using maximally selected rank statistics to identify any age inflection points that significantly corresponded with survival in our overall cohort and found inflection points at 34 and 51 years (Supplementary Fig. 3). Consequently, for the purposes of this study, we defined age interval groups as <18, 18–34, 35–50, and >50 years of age.

Overlapping top-ranking candidates from the networks were explored in the context of GBM, gliomas, and their roles in different cancers based on the literature. For the significant candidates, mutation data were obtained from the cBioPortal [34 (link)] database (https://www.cbioportal.org/, accessed on 7 September 2022) (Supplementary File S3 Table S8). Disease involvement information was obtained from the HPA (Supplementary File S3 Table S8). Survival analysis results were extracted from the tool glioVis [21 (link)] (http://gliovis.bioinfo.cnio.es/, accessed on 14 November 2022), using the GBM and lower-grade glioma (GBMLGG) and glioblastoma (GBM) datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) [35 (link)]. The evidence table in Supplementary File S3 (Table S8) lists both outcomes, while survival curves in Figure 2B and Supplementary File S5 Figure S2 are based on the combined GBMLGG dataset. The GBM dataset compares normal samples with GBM, while the combined dataset contains GBM and other lower-grade gliomas (LGG)—oligodendroglioma, oligoastrocytoma, and astrocytoma, while normal samples are absent. Differential expression information was obtained from two sources: TCGA GBM dataset via glioVis (Supplementary File S3 Table S8), and the TCGA data processed and published by Rahman et al. [20 (link)]. The latter dataset was split into three groups: normal, GBM, and other gliomas. Samples labelled as IDH1 wild-type were considered GBM (n = 233), and all other types of gliomas were combined under ‘Other gliomas’ (n = 445). Normal samples (n = 5) were used as labelled, and these data were used to obtain the expression plots (Supplementary File S5 Figure S1). Significance was tested using the pairwise t-test, with Benjamini–Hochberg correction for multiple testing. Differential expression in the GBMLGG dataset mentioned in Supplementary File S3 Table S10 was as obtained from glioVis. Enrichment of candidates based on their known disease associations, contributions to specific biological processes, and involvement in different canonical pathways was obtained from Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA, Qiagen GmbH) (Supplementary File S4 Tables S11 and S12).

The GSE68848, GSE169158, and GSE4290 gene expression datasets were collected from the NCBI-GEO [48 (link)]. These expression datasets were selected because of the clear classification between the diseased and the control genes for the respective diseases. GSE68848 has a total of 580 samples, which were categorized as mixed, GBM (diseased), oligodendroglioma, astrocytoma, unknown (uncategorized), and non-tumor (control). Only the diseased and control samples were considered in our study. The SARS-CoV-2 viral infection versus the mock infection dataset was obtained from GSE169158, and the DEGs were identified with the Galaxy server [49 (link)]. The GSE4290 study collected 23 samples from normal patients as controls and 81 samples from patients with diseased glioblastomas. The analysis of the common DEGs between the diseased and the control samples was conducted with the GEO2R package (LIMMA, Linear Models for Microarray Data). Moreover, the screening of the DEGs was performed with a 0.05 p-value as a threshold.
