BACKGROUND The CeTeG/NOA-09 trial showed that lomustine/temozolomide chemotherapy prolongs survival for newly diagnosed MGMT-methylated glioblastoma patients. Previous reports on temozolomide monotherapy suggested, that the survival benefit of temozolomide in MGMT-methylated tumors may be restricted to the RTK II methylation subgroup and absent in RTK I and MES subgroups. To identify patients with a particularly strong benefit from CCNU/TMZ, we explored the association of methylation subgroups with outcome after lomustine/temozolomide therapy. METHODS All patients from the CeTeG/NOA-09 trial with sufficiently available tumor tissue (n = 98) underwent 850K methylation array analysis of their tumor and methylation subgroup annotation (Heidelberg brain tumor methylation classifier v11b4; calibrated score &amp;gt; 0.5 required). Overall survival (OS) was compared between a pooled cohort of tumors of the RTK I/MES subgroups and RTK II tumors. RESULTS In the CCNU/TMZ arm of CeTeG/NOA-09, OS was prolonged in RTK I/MES (n = 16; median not reached, 4-year OS 69%) as compared to RTK II patients (n = 14; median 20.6 months, 4-year OS 23%; p = 0.004 logrank test). In the standard temozolomide arm of CeTeG/NOA-09, OS tended to be shorter in RTK I/MES (n = 7; median 23.7 months, 4-year OS 17%) as compared to RTK II patients (n = 17; median 35.2 months; 4-year OS 38%, p = 0.15). CONCLUSION The CCNU/TMZ-dependent survival prolongation in patients with RTK I/MES tumors as opposed to RTK II seen in CeTeG/NOA-09 suggests that methylation-based subgrouping could be predictive for CCNU/TMZ efficacy in newly diagnosed MGMT-methylated glioblastoma.
