Perspectives of immunotherapy in isocitrate dehydrogenase-mutant gliomas

Purpose of review The present review introduces recent progress in eliciting the role of mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) in gliomas, especially regarding its mode of action as a modulator of antitumor immune response, and provides rationales for targeting mutant IDH in glioma immunotherapy. Both the development of small molecule inhibitors repressing the enzymatic activity of mutant IDH and novel, mechanism-led combination immunotherapies are discussed. Recent findings Since the discovery of highly frequent IDH mutations in low-grade gliomas and nonsolid malignancies, its tumor cell-intrinsic effects have been intensively investigated. Tumor cells expressing mutant IDH display profound alterations of redox control capacity, phospholipid profile, and ATP supply. Recent findings s...
