标题:Radiomic MRI signature reveals three distinct subtypes of glioblastoma with different clinical and molecular characteristics, offering prognostic value beyond IDH1
摘要:-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase, epidermal growth factor receptor variant III (EGFRvIII), and transcriptomic subtype composition. The subtypes provided risk-stratification substantially beyond that provided by WHO classifications. Within IDH1-wildtype tumors, our subtypes revealed different survival (p < 0.001), thereby highlighting the synergistic consideration of molecular and imaging measures for prognostication. Moreover, the imaging characteristics suggest that subtype-specific treatment of peritumoral infiltrated brain tissue might be more effective than current uniform standard-of-care. Finally, our analysis found subtype-specific radiogenomic signatures of EGFRvIII-mutated tumors. The identified subtypes and their clinical and molecular correlates provide an in vivo portrait of phenotypic heterogeneity in glioblastoma, which points to the need for precision diagnostics and personalized treatment.
