    Abstract: e14037 Background: H3 K27M-mutant diffuse midline glioma is an invariably lethal form of brain cancer that disproportionately affects children and young adults and has no effective treatment following front-line radiation. The initial disease definition in the 2016 WHO Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System regarded the H3 K27M mutation as pathognomonic, though the definition was updated in 2018 restricting the diagnosis to histologically diffuse gliomas that involve midline CNS structures (cIMPACT-NOW update 2). ONC201 is an investigational anti-cancer small molecule, DRD2 antagonist and ClpP agonist that has induced durable tumor regressions by RANO-HGG criteria in a registration cohort of recurrent diffuse midline glioma, H3 K27M-mutant patients treated with single agent ONC201. Methods: We present 7 patients with H3 K27M-mutant diffuse gliomas were enrolled in ONC201 clinical studies, though excluded from the registration cohort due to involvement of non-midline CNS structures, all within the cerebral hemispheres (3 frontal, 1 temporal, 1 frontotemporal, 1 parietal, and 1 corona radiata). Results: Two of the 7 patients underwent objective responses by RANO-HGG criteria as assessed by investigator, which was associated with clinical benefit that included increased mobility and level of alertness. Conclusions: These results demonstrate that H3 K27M-mutant diffuse gliomas occur outside of midline CNS structures, and suggest that ONC201 has single agent activity in H3 K27M-mutant gliomas irrespective of CNS location.

    Abstract: To provide guidance to clinicians regarding therapy for diffuse astrocytic and oligodendroglial tumors in adults. METHODS ASCO and the Society for Neuro-Oncology convened an Expert Panel and conducted a systematic review of the literature. RESULTS Fifty-nine randomized trials focusing on therapeutic management were identified. RECOMMENDATIONS Adults with newly diagnosed oligodendroglioma, isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)–mutant, 1p19q codeleted CNS WHO grade 2 and 3 should be offered radiation therapy (RT) and procarbazine, lomustine, and vincristine (PCV). Temozolomide (TMZ) is a reasonable alternative for patients who may not tolerate PCV, but no high-level evidence supports upfront TMZ in this setting. People with newly diagnosed astrocytoma, IDH-mutant, 1p19q non-codeleted CNS WHO grade 2 should be offered RT with adjuvant chemotherapy (TMZ or PCV). People with astrocytoma, IDH-mutant, 1p19q non-codeleted CNS WHO grade 3 should be offered RT and adjuvant TMZ. People with astrocytoma, IDH-mutant, CNS WHO grade 4 may follow recommendations for either astrocytoma, IDH-mutant, 1p19q non-codeleted CNS WHO grade 3 or glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype, CNS WHO grade 4. Concurrent TMZ and RT should be offered to patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype, CNS WHO grade 4 followed by 6 months of adjuvant TMZ. Alternating electric field therapy, approved by the US Food and Drug Administration, should be considered for these patients. Bevacizumab is not recommended. In situations in which the benefits of 6-week RT plus TMZ may not outweigh the harms, hypofractionated RT plus TMZ is reasonable. In patients age ≥ 60 to ≥ 70 years, with poor performance status or for whom toxicity or prognosis are concerns, best supportive care alone, RT alone (for MGMT promoter unmethylated tumors), or TMZ alone (for MGMT promoter methylated tumors) are reasonable treatment options.

    Abstract: 2065 Background: Gliomas, which constitute the majority of primary brain cancers in adults, are assigned to a particular grade based on histological and molecular criteria set forth by the World Health Organization (WHO). A subset of initially low grade glioma patients transition to a higher grade at recurrence through a process known as malignant transformation (MT). Despite its significant implications on clinical prognosis, MT remains a poorly understood phenomenon in regards to its incidence rates, effects on survival, and potential prognostic factors. Our study aims to elucidate MT in patients that possess a mutation in the isocitrate dehydrogenase ( IDH) gene, one of the most common genetic alterations in gliomas. Methods: All known IDH mutant glioma patients, seen at UCLA between 1986 and 2022, who received at least 1 repeat resection for presumed recurrent disease were included. Based on surgical pathology reports, patients were categorized into MT and non-transforming progression groups, and further stratified by diagnosis in compliance with the 2016 WHO Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System. Relevant clinical information, including patient demographics, survival data, tumor microscopic descriptions, and magnetic resonance imaging, was accessed via electronic medical records. Kaplan Meier analyses were conducted to evaluate the predictive power of various clinical, pathological, and radiological markers. Results: Of 724 total IDH mutant patients screened, 253 received a second surgery and were thus incorporated in this study. Among the 196 patients with lower grade pathologies capable of MT, 129 (65.8%) progressed to a higher grade at recurrence while 71 (36.2%) did not. By diagnosis, the incidence rates of MT for initial grade 2 astrocytomas, grade 3 astrocytomas, and grade 2 oligodendrogliomas were determined to be 74.7%, 48.9%, and 66.1%, respectively. MT was associated with worse overall survival and post-recurrence survival compared to non-transformation in astrocytomas, a trend not seen in oligodendrogliomas. Across all relevant diagnoses, a subset of 36 MT patients did not receive treatment in the interval between initial and recurrent surgery, demonstrating the existence of spontaneously occurring MT. Furthermore, consolidating data from pathology and MRI reports revealed that a greater extent of abnormal molecular characteristics at initial diagnosis and earlier post-operative contrast enhancement may predict MT. Conclusions: These results highlight the distinct nature of gliomas that undergo MT, particularly in tumors of astrocytic differentiation. Considering its adverse impact on clinical outcome, understanding and anticipating this phenomenon is instrumental for the determination of optimal treatment among glioma patients.

    Abstract: 16 Background: GBM is a largely incurable, highly aggressive cancer with high incidence of CD. Caregivers face heightened stress with loved one’s limited life expectancy and additional duties. To better understand this unique group, a survey tool was developed to examine effect of CD on caregiver burden. Methods: Four of 10 planned academic centers are enrolling towards achieving 200+ completed surveys. The survey was developed step-wise: 1) literature review of primary brain tumors, Alzheimer’s disease, and dementia to identify domains; 2) focus groups with neurooncologists and American Brain Tumor Association advocates to narrow domains; 3) caregiver interviews to verify selected domains; 4) single-site pilot study to confirm content (n=20). Dyads with caregiver survey and respective patient’s clinical data are created as possible. Results: Complete data from 31 caregivers and 28 dyads enrolled at Huntsman Cancer Institute, University of Utah and University of California, Los Angeles are currently available. Response rate was 88% for caregivers and 90% for patients. Among caregivers, 87% were patient spouse/partner, 84% female, average age 56 years, 42% currently employed, 32% have no additional help, and 26% are primary caregivers for others. Patients were male (74%), average age 59 years, not working (84%), and being treated for initial diagnosis (67%). Proportion of caregivers performing ≥ 1 caregiving task, i.e. meal preparation, doubled from before to after diagnosis (48% vs. 97%). The majority of caregivers (90%) perceived memory problems in a loved one over last 14 days. Trouble remembering recent events or things interfered with 71% of caregivers’ daily life "somewhat", "quite a bit", or "very much". When ranking effect of CD on caregiver’s general quality of life on a scale of 0 (none) to 10 (significant), 60% and 23% of caregivers indicated ≥ 5 and ≥ 8, respectively. Caregivers’ responses to survey satisfaction questions showed only 23% feel enough is being done to understand caregiving in GBM and 76% were satisfied overall with the survey. Conclusions: Caregivers are affected daily and significantly by GBM-related CD. Results will be updated at time of presentation.

    Abstract: 2540 Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) in elderly patients differ molecularly as compared to younger patients, and may have increased angiogenic activity. Bevacizumab (BV) is an anti-angiogenic monoclonal antibody against vascular endothelial growth factor. We conducted a clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BV and temozolomide (TMZ) for elderly patients with a new diagnosis of GBM, while deferring radiotherapy. Methods: This is a phase II, single-arm, multicenter, open label trial. Eligible patients have a tissue diagnosis of GBM with no treatment other than surgery, age ≥ 70, KPS ≥ 60, and adequate organ function. TMZ was initiated within 2 weeks of surgery and BV was initiated within 4 weeks thereafter. TMZ was administered at 150-200 mg/m 2 /day for 5 days every 4 weeks and BV at 10mg/kg every 2 weeks. A historical control group of 42 patients with similar criteria who received concurrent TMZ and RT followed by adjuvant TMZ, was derived for comparison from an institutional patient database. The primary endpoint is overall survival (OS) and secondary endpoints are progression-free-survival and safety. Results: 50 patients were enrolled from June 2010 to January 2016. Median age is 75 (range 70-87), and median KPS is 80 (range 60-100). 17 patients had a biopsy only, 26 patients have MGMT promoter methylation, and all patients are IDH wildtype. The study and control group are well matched in terms of age and molecular markers, however, the study patients had worse initial KPS and higher baseline tumor volume. At time of analysis, all but 2 patients were deceased. The median OS was 12.6 months for study patients (95% CI, 10.9-15.9 months) and 16.3 months for control patients (95% CI, 12.9-22.4 months). In a multivariate Cox analysis, baseline tumor volume (HR = 2.6, p = 0.0001) and MGMT promoter methylation (HR = 0.49, p = 0.004) were significant prognostic markers. Treatment type did not have a significant impact on OS (HR = 1.5, p = 0.14). Treatment-related serious adverse events included: pulmonary embolism (5), cerebral hemorrhage (3), pneumonia (1), intestinal perforation (1), deep venous thrombosis (6), hypertension (2), atrial fibrillation (1), congestive heart failure (1), cardio-respiratory arrest (1), lymphopenia (2), thrombocytopenia (8), and neutropenia (5). Conclusions: The results of this study suggest for patients with newly diagnosed GBM age ≥70 and KPS ≥60, treatment with BV and TMZ is equivalent to standard chemoradiotherapy, and has tolerable side effects. Complete endpoint analysis will be presented with the poster. Clinical trial information: NCT01149850 .

    Abstract: 2043 Background: IDH mutant glioma patients are followed by MRI, where new contrast enhancement (CEnew) is a hallmark of tumor progression. Interpretation of CEnew is confounded by pseudoprogression (PsP), the appearance of CEnew that spontaneously resolves on subsequent scans. PsP has been characterized in IDH wildtype patients, but is poorly understood in the IDH mutant category. This study represents an examination of the characteristics and impacts on patient survival of CEnew in IDH mutant gliomas. Methods: Of the 724 confirmed IDH mutant glioma patients treated at UCLA between 1998 and 2022, 587 were included (median follow-up = 5.23 years). Patients were excluded based on these criteria: 〈 4 MRI scans, unknown IDH status, and unknown WHO 2016 diagnosis. CEnew was first identified by direct review of images and confirmed by the radiology report. Any new enhancement appearing on the first post surgical MRI was not considered CEnew. CEnew was interpreted as progression after surgical resection indicating tumor or the re-initiation of chemotherapy or radiation and was considered PsP after the resolution of enhancement without new treatment initiation. Some PsP patients could have received bevacizumab. Kaplan-Meier survival analyses were used to examine overall survival differences between groups. Results: 327 of 587 patients developed CEnew. The incidence of CEnew was higher in Grade 4 Astrocytoma (G4 Astro) versus all other pathologies and lowest in LO (p 〈 0.05). The Enhancement Free Survival (EFS) was shortest for G4 Astro patients (p =.002); LO patients had the longest median EFS of 2602 days (p = 0.002). The development of CEnew and presence of preoperative enhancement were both found to be negative survival prognosticators in all pathologies (p 〈 0.05). From our analysis, 92 patients developed PsP and 177 developed progression. The median duration of a PsP spot was 244 days. PsP spots appeared earlier than progression spots (median 538 vs 1113 days, p =.001). The incidence of PsP was highest in the G4 Astro group and lowest in LO patients. Survival analysis of patients with progression versus those with PsP and progression shows PsP is associated with longer OS in the entire cohort and the LO, AO, AA, and G4 Astro groups (p 〈 0.05). 100% of PsP patients received radiation therapy (RT). The median time from the end of RT to PsP was 209 days. Conclusions: While CEnew in IDH mutant gliomas is associated with reduced OS, poorer outcome is driven by progressors. PsP represents 28% of CEnew instances, typically occurs within 1 year of RT and have superior outcome to progressors and equivalent to of patients that do not display CEnew. [Table: see text]

    Abstract: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the deadliest adult brain cancer, and all patients ultimately succumb to the disease. Radiation therapy (RT) provides survival benefit of 6 mo over surgery alone, but these results have not improved in decades. We report that radiation induces a glioma-initiating cell phenotype, and we have identified trifluoperazine (TFP) as a compound that interferes with this phenotype conversion. TFP causes loss of radiation-induced Nanog mRNA expression, and activation of GSK3 with consecutive posttranslational reduction in p-Akt, Sox2, and β-catenin protein levels. TFP did not alter the intrinsic radiation sensitivity of glioma-initiating cells (GICs). Continuous treatment with TFP and a single dose of radiation reduced the number of GICs in vivo and prolonged survival in syngeneic and patient-derived orthotopic xenograft (PDOX) mouse models of GBM. Our findings suggest that the combination of a dopamine receptor antagonist with radiation enhances the efficacy of RT in GBM by preventing radiation-induced phenotype conversion of radiosensitive non-GICs into treatment-resistant, induced GICs (iGICs).

    Abstract: Glioblastoma is the deadliest brain tumor in adults, and the standard of care consists of surgery followed by radiation and treatment with temozolomide. Overall survival times for patients suffering from glioblastoma are unacceptably low indicating an unmet need for novel treatment options. Methods Using patient-derived HK-157, HK-308, HK-374, and HK-382 glioblastoma lines, the GL261 orthotopic mouse models of glioblastoma, and HK-374 patient-derived orthotopic xenografts, we tested the effect of radiation and the dopamine receptor antagonist quetiapine on glioblastoma self-renewal in vitro and survival in vivo. A possible resistance mechanism was investigated using RNA-sequencing. The blood-brain-barrier–penetrating statin atorvastatin was used to overcome this resistance mechanism. All statistical tests were 2-sided. Results Treatment of glioma cells with the dopamine receptor antagonist quetiapine reduced glioma cell self-renewal in vitro, and combined treatment of mice with quetiapine and radiation prolonged the survival of glioma-bearing mice. The combined treatment induced the expression of genes involved in cholesterol biosynthesis. This rendered GL261 and HK-374 orthotopic tumors vulnerable to simultaneous treatment with atorvastatin and further statistically significantly prolonged the survival of C57BL/6 (n = 10 to 16 mice per group; median survival not reached; log-rank test, P  & lt; .001) and NOD Scid gamma mice (n = 8 to 21 mice per group; hazard ratio = 3.96, 95% confidence interval = 0.29 to 12.40; log-rank test, P  & lt; .001), respectively. Conclusions Our results indicate promising therapeutic efficacy with the triple combination of quetiapine, atorvastatin, and radiation treatment against glioblastoma without increasing the toxicity of radiation. With both drugs readily available for clinical use, our study could be rapidly translated into a clinical trial.
