Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH1) catalyzes the reversible NADP+-dependent oxidation of isocitrate to α-ketoglutarate (αKG). IDH1 mutations, primarily R132H, drive > 80% of low-grade gliomas and secondary glioblastomas and facilitate the NADPH-dependent reduction of αKG to the oncometabolite D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D2HG). While the biochemical features of human WT and mutant IDH1 catalysis have been well-established, considerably less is known about mechanisms of regulation. Proteomics studies have identified lysine acetylation in WT IDH1, indicating post-translational regulation. Here, we generated lysine to glutamine acetylation mimic mutants in IDH1 to evaluate the effects on activity. We show that mimicking lysine acetylation decreased the catalytic efficiency of WT IDH1, with less severe catalytic consequences for R132H IDH1.

Abstract Glioblastomas are highly aggressive, grade IV tumors of glial cells that arise either as de novo primary tumors or as secondary tumors, which malignantly transformed from lower grade gliomas. Secondary glioblastomas have a relatively low incidence making up 5–10% of all glioblastoma diagnoses and tend to occur in younger patients. However, these tumors are still quite aggressive with survival outcomes that do not differ substantially from primary glioblastomas. Secondary glioblastomas also often harbor mutation of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) enzyme, which produces the oncometabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) from alpha-ketoglutarate (α-KG). The accumulation of 2-HG has several downstream effects due to its competitive inhibition of α-KG-dependent enzymes, including epigenetic modification via hypermethylation of histones. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) are a class of molecules that inhibit histone deacetylation and have been shown to have anti-tumor effect in part due to this epigenetic modification. Thus, because of their shared targets with regard to histone modification, it is plausible that HDACi could counter the oncometabolite effects of accumulated 2-HG in IDH1 mutant tumors. Since belinostat is a pan-HDACi that has improved blood-brain barrier penetration compared to many other HDACis, we conducted a pilot study that enrolled 15 patients examining its upfront use for the treatment of glioblastomas and found that it was well tolerated. One patient in particular, likely with secondary glioblastoma harboring the typical IDH1 mutation, underwent treatment with standard chemoradiation as well as belinostat on this study. For this case, a remarkable improvement in tumor burden with very significant decrease in enhancing residual tumor and restoration of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS)-detectable metabolism was noted. Furthermore, improved neurocognitition and quality-of-life were also observed in this patient during the 18-month follow-up period. Collectively, these outcomes potentially support the use of belinostat as an adjuvant therapy for patients with secondary glioblastoma that harbor a mutant IDH enzyme.

e22193 Background: Several studies have observed a change in MGMT silencing and IDH1 mutation in secondary glioblastomas (sGBMs). However, reports about the prognostic value of promoter methylation of the MGMT gene and IDH mutations in secondary glioblastomas (sGBMs) are few in number. Methods: The study involved primary and secondary tumor tissue samples from 89 GBMs pts (P/S: 42/47) diagnosed and treated within the First Hospital of Jilin University from Jan 2006 to Nov 2011. After surgical treatment, all GBM pts were subjected to radiotherapy with concomitant administration of TMZ. Pts with GBM were screened for promoter status of MGMT gene, by the methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP), and, for IDH mutations by direct sequencing. Results: A total of 42 of 89 pts (47.2%) had primary GBMs (pGBMs) (Group 1), while 47 pts (52.8%) had secondary GBMs (Group 2). In Group 2, 23 pts (21/47, 44.7%) developed a sGBM through progression from a low grade glioma (LGG) WHO grade II and a secondary anaplastic gliomas (sAG) (Group 2a), whereas 26 pts (26/47, 55.3%) showed a direct malignant transformation from a LGG to a sGBM (Group 2b). MGMT methylation was observed in 38 (42.7%) GBMs, with a higher frequency in sGBMs than pGBMs (24/14, 51.1 vs. 33.3%; p = 0.008). MGMT methylation status was associated with increased median survival time in pGBMs and sGBMs pts. IDH1 mutations are present in the majority of sGBMs but rare in pGBMs (31/5, 66.0 vs. 11.9%; p < 0.001). Group 2a had a higher frequency with IDH1 mutation than group 2b (18/12, 78.3 vs. 46.2%; p < 0.01). The median survival time after malignant progression of all sGBMs pts with an IDH mutation was longer than in pts with wild-type IDH (3.2 vs. 1.1ys; p < 0.01). IDH1 mutation had an improved outcome in group2a, which is compared with group 2b (3.9 ys vs. 2.1 ys; p < 0.05). Conclusions: In our population, pts with sGBM and IDH mutation had a significantly improved outcome. In addition, MGMT methylation is also a powerful prognostic marker in sGBM pts.
