ABSTRACT
Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) 1 or IDH2 occur in most of the adult low-grade gliomas and, less commonly, in cholangiocarcinoma, chondrosarcoma, acute myeloid leukemia, and other human malignancies. Cancer-associated mutations alter the function of the enzyme, resulting in production of R(-)-2-hydroxyglutarate and broad epigenetic dysregulation. Small molecule IDH inhibitors have received regulatory approval for the treatment of IDH mutant (mIDH) leukemia and are under development for the treatment of mIDH solid tumors. This article provides a current view of mIDH adult astrocytic and oligodendroglial tumors, including their clinical presentation and treatment, and discusses novel approaches and challenges toward improving the treatment of these tumors.
