description | Objectives
To assess the combined role of tumor vascularity, estimated from perfusion MRI, and
MGMT
methylation status on overall survival (OS) in patients with glioblastoma.
Methods
A multicentric international dataset including 96 patients from NCT03439332 clinical study were used to study the prognostic relationships between
MGMT
and perfusion markers. Relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) in the most vascularized tumor regions was automatically obtained from preoperative MRIs using ONCOhabitats online analysis service. Cox survival regression models and stratification strategies were conducted to define a subpopulation that is particularly favored by
MGMT
methylation in terms of OS.
Results
rCBV distributions did not differ significantly (
p
> 0.05) in the methylated and the non-methylated subpopulations. In patients with moderately vascularized tumors (rCBV 10.73), however, there was no significant effect of
MGMT
methylation (HR = 1.72,
p
= 0.10, AUC = 0.56).
Conclusions
Our results indicate the existence of complementary prognostic information provided by
MGMT
methylation and rCBV. Perfusion markers could identify a subpopulation of patients who will benefit the most from
MGMT
methylation. Not considering this information may lead to bias in the interpretation of clinical studies.
Key Points
• MRI perfusion provides complementary prognostic information to MGMT methylation.
• MGMT methylation improves prognosis in glioblastoma patients with moderate vascular profile.
• Failure to consider these relations may lead to bias in the interpretation of clinical studies. |
