Résumé

The World Health Organization (WHO) adult glioma grading system is questionable in pediatric high-grade gliomas (pHGGs), which are biologically distinct from adult HGGs. We took advantage of the neuropathological review data obtained during one of the largest prospective randomized pHGG trials, namely HERBY (NCT01390948), to address this issue in children with newly diagnosed non-brainstem HGG. HGG diagnosis was confirmed by pre-randomization, real-time central pathology review using WHO 2007 criteria, followed by a consensus review blinded to clinical factors and outcomes. We evaluated association between WHO 2007 grade and other clinical/radiological/biological characteristics and the prognostic value of WHO 2007 grade, midline location, and selected biomarkers (Ki-67 index/Olig2/CD34/EGFR/p53/H3F3A K27M mutation) on overall survival. Real-time central neuropathological review was feasible in a multicenter study, with a mean time of 2.4 days, and led to the rejection of HGG diagnosis in 20 of 163 cases (12.3%). The different grading criteria and resulting WHO grade were not significantly associated with overall survival in the entire population (n = 118) or in midline and non-midline subgroups. H3F3A K27M mutation was significantly associated with poor outcome. No significant prognostic value was observed for grade, even after regrading H3F3A K27M-mutated midline glioma as grade IV (WHO 2016). Midline location and a high Ki-67 index (≥20%) were associated with poor outcome (P = 0.004 and P = 0.04, respectively). A 10% increase in Ki-67 index was associated with a hazard ratio of 1.53 (95% CI: 1.27-1.83; P < 0.0001). Our findings suggest that WHO grade III versus IV has no prognostic value in pediatric HGG.

BACKGROUND
The World Health Organization (WHO) adult glioma grading system is questionable in pediatric high-grade gliomas (pHGGs), which are biologically distinct from adult HGGs. We took advantage of the neuropathological review data obtained during one of the largest prospective randomized pHGG trials, namely HERBY (NCT01390948), to address this issue in children with newly diagnosed non-brainstem HGG.
METHODS
HGG diagnosis was confirmed by pre-randomization, real-time central pathology review using WHO 2007 criteria, followed by a consensus review blinded to clinical factors and outcomes. We evaluated association between WHO 2007 grade and other clinical/radiological/biological characteristics and the prognostic value of WHO 2007 grade, midline location, and selected biomarkers (Ki-67 index/Olig2/CD34/EGFR/p53/H3F3A K27M mutation) on overall survival.
RESULTS
Real-time central neuropathological review was feasible in a multicenter study, with a mean time of 2.4 days, and led to the rejection of HGG diagnosis in 20 of 163 cases (12.3%). The different grading criteria and resulting WHO grade were not significantly associated with overall survival in the entire population (n = 118) or in midline and non-midline subgroups. H3F3A K27M mutation was significantly associated with poor outcome. No significant prognostic value was observed for grade, even after regrading H3F3A K27M-mutated midline glioma as grade IV (WHO 2016). Midline location and a high Ki-67 index (≥20%) were associated with poor outcome (P = 0.004 and P = 0.04, respectively). A 10% increase in Ki-67 index was associated with a hazard ratio of 1.53 (95% CI: 1.27-1.83; P < 0.0001).
CONCLUSION
Our findings suggest that WHO grade III versus IV has no prognostic value in pediatric HGG.
