Popis: Introduction/Objective Maximizing surgical resection in gliomas, while avoiding compromising non-infiltrated tissue, is associated with survival benefit. Current methodologies are suboptimal in providing rapid, intraoperative molecular characterization of tissue. We address this unmet need by using desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (DESI-MS) for the intraoperative molecular assessment of gliomas. Methods/Case Report This prospective study uses intraoperative DESI-MS analysis of fresh tissue to evaluate IDH mutations via 2-hydroxyglutarate intensity and TCP via measurement of N-acetylaspartic acid (NAA) intensity and characteristic lipid profiles in less than three minutes. Blinded review of the tissue smears by a neuropathologist is used to validate IDH mutation status and TCP estimates. Results (if a Case Study enter NA) Presently, 529 biopsies from 85 enrolled patients have been collected and analyzed at two institutions. TCP assessment based on NAA intensity in 203 biopsies at the first institution yielded sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy values of 91, 76, and 83%, whereas TCP estimates via characteristic lipid profiles yielded 76, 85, and 81%, respectively. Assessment of IDH mutation status of 71 core biopsies yielded sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy values of 89, 100, and 94%. Ongoing validation of the methodology is being performed at a second institution, where we have collected 282 biopsies from 36 patients. IDH mutation assessment of the first 15 patients indicate 100% sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy. Conclusion This study represents the first and largest study using DESI-MS for the intraoperative evaluation of IDH status and TCP measurement in gliomas. Prospectively, we propose to modify our DESI-MS system to allow estimation of IDH mutation status and TCP in surgical cavities without the need for a biopsy by placing a surgical material along the margin and transferring material from the blot to a microscope slide prior to DESI-MS analysis. We envision molecular analysis by DESI-MS as a complementary technique to histopathology capable of providing additional clinical information in near real-time.
