- Abstract
Purpose: To compare the ability of 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG)-to-lipid and lactate (2HG/[lipid + lactate]) ratio with the ability of 2HG concentration alone to predict the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status in patients with glioma., Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, consecutive patients with histopathologically proven glioma were enrolled between July 2016 and February 2019. A total of 79 patients were enrolled (mean age, 44 years; 49 men). The 2HG concentration and other MR spectroscopic parameters were measured by single-voxel point-resolved spectroscopy before surgery. The diagnostic performance of the 2HG concentration and 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio were calculated. Internal validation was assessed by the bootstrap approach with 1000 bootstrap resamples. Differences in the predictive accuracy of 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio and 2HG concentration were determined by calculating the integrated discrimination improvement. The diagnostic accuracy (sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC]) of these measures was also compared separately in patients with glioblastomas and patients with lower-grade gliomas., Results: Of the 79 enrolled patients, 28 had IDH mutations and 51 had wild-type IDH . The sensitivity, specificity, and AUC of 2HG concentration for predicting IDH -mutant gliomas were 89% (25 of 28), 67% (34 of 51), and 0.80 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.70, 0.88; C statistic, 0.80), respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, and AUC of the 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio for predicting IDH -mutant gliomas were 79% (22 of 28), 92% (47 of 51), and 0.90 (95% CI: 0.81, 0.96; C statistics, 0.90), respectively. The optimal cutoff value for the 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio was 0.63. The 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio was significantly better for predicting IDH mutation status than the 2HG concentration alone ( P < .01). In glioblastoma, the 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio was also better for predicting IDH mutations than the 2HG concentration alone, with borderline significance ( P = .052). In lower-grade glioma, the 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio and the 2HG concentration showed comparable diagnostic performance ( P = .72)., Conclusion: The 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio is more accurate for predicting IDH mutation status in patients with glioma than the 2HG concentration alone.
