Cyclin-Dependent Kinase Inhibitor 2A/B Homozygous Deletion Prediction and Survival Analysis.

Cyclin-Dependent Kinase Inhibitor 2A/B ( CDKN2A/B ) homozygous deletion was a significant prognostic factor for gliomas and affected the treatment strategy. However, the radiomic features of CDKN2A/B homozygous deletion in gliomas have not been developed, and whether the radiomic features and molecular subgroups can provide prognostic value in low-grade gliomas (LGGs) has yet to be studied. Thus, this study aimed to develop a predictive model of CDKN2A/B in gliomas and investigate the prognostic value of this biomarker and radiomic features in isocitrate dehydrogenase ( IDH )-mutant LGGs. First, we developed the predictive model of CDKN2A/B homozygous deletion in 292 patients. The results revealed that radiomic features predict CDKN2A/B homozygous deletion with high accuracy and reliability. Subsequently, the prognostic survival models of 104 patients ( IDH -mutant LGGs) were established, which provided an essential value for prognostic evaluation and indicated that CDKN2A/B homozygous deletion can be used as an independent predictor of prognosis in LGGs.
