Abstract

Newly published studies validate prior reports that specific combinations of genetic alternations in IDH1/2, ATRX, TERT, TP53, and co-deletion of 1p/19q have the ability to reclassify gliomas into rational subsets, defining a glioma's biological and clinical behavior more accurately than stratifications based solely on histopathology.
