PURPOSE: Unexpected mutations affecting the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH1) gene at codon 132 have been found in 12% of glioblastomas. PATIENTS AND METHODS: IDH1 codon 132 sequencing was performed in a series of 404 patients with glioma (100 grade 2, 121 grade 3, and 183 grade 4 gliomas) and correlated with histology, genomic profile, methylguanyl methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation status, and outcome....
