11 Sept 2024
Abstract excerpt
MGMT promoter methylation is an established prognostic and predictive biomarker in patients with IDH-wildtype glioblastoma.1–3 However, World Health Organization (WHO) central nervous system (CNS) grade 4 IDH-mutant astrocytomas—unlike glioblastoma—uncommonly exhibit monosomy 10 (harboring MGMT), therefore the effect of MGMT promoter methylation on response to alkylating chemotherapy is unclear.
