Notes
Defined molecularly, not just histologically: IDH-mutant grade 2 diffuse astrocytoma + IDH-mutant 1p/19q-codeleted oligodendroglioma. IDH-wild-type "diffuse astrocytomas" are reclassified as molecular GBM (DIS-GBM) per WHO 2021 even at grade 2 histology. Standard care: - Maximal safe surgical resection (extent of resection prognostic). - Low-risk (age <40 + gross-total resection): observation acceptable. - High-risk (age ≥40 OR subtotal resection): RT + adjuvant PCV (procarbazine + CCNU + vincristine; RTOG-9802 12-yr survival benefit) OR RT + temozolomide (CATNON for grade 3 anaplastic astrocytoma; equivalent for grade 2 in practice). Targeted therapy (paradigm-shifting 2024): - Vorasidenib (oral brain-penetrant pan-IDH1/2 inhibitor): FDA-approved Aug 2024 for IDH-mutant grade 2 astrocytoma / oligodendroglioma after surgery, in patients NOT requiring immediate RT/chemo. INDIGO trial: PFS HR 0.39 vs placebo; transformative for the watch-and-wait window. - Patient selection: residual / progressive non-enhancing disease after surgery; defers RT-induced cognitive toxicity. - Ivosidenib (IDH1-only) explored in earlier LGG trials but vorasidenib is preferred for CNS penetration.
