Abstract The characteristics of IDH-wild-type lower-grade astrocytoma remain unclear. According to cIMPACT-NOW update 3, IDH-wild-type astrocytomas with any of the following factors show poor prognosis: combination of chromosome 7 gain and 10 loss (+ 7/− 10), and/or EGFR amplification, and/or TERT promoter (TERTp) mutation. Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) can detect copy number alterations at reasonable cost. The purpose of this study was to identify a precise, cost-effective method for stratifying the prognosis of IDH-wild-type astrocytoma. Sanger sequencing, MLPA, and quantitative methylation-specific PCR were performed for 42 IDH-wild-type lower-grade astrocytomas surgically treated at Kyoto University Hospital, and overall survival was analysed for 40 patients who underwent first surgery. Of the 42 IDH-wild-type astrocytomas, 21 were classified as grade 4 using cIMPACT-NOW update 3 criteria and all had either TERTp mutation or EGFR amplification. Kaplan–Meier analysis confirmed the prognostic significance of cIMPACT-NOW criteria, and World Health Organization grade was also prognostic. Cox regression hazard model identified independent significant prognostic indicators of PTEN loss (risk ratio, 9.75; p |
