Abstract Details

Smoking-related Genomic Alterations Are Observed in Patients with Glioma and May Contribute to Shortened Survival

To evaluate associations between smoking status, genetic alterations in primary glial neoplasms, and impact on survival.
Cigarette smoking may contribute to cancer-associated genomic instability with increased tumor mutation burden and frequency of KRAS, TP53, and other alterations. Few studies have explored smoking-associated genomic instability in patients with primary glioma.
Retrospective analysis was performed of adults (≥18 years) diagnosed with glioma (i.e., glioblastoma, astrocytoma, oligodendroglioma; WHO Grade 1–4) between 2000-2023, receiving primary oncologic care at Wake Forest Baptist Comprehensive Cancer Center, and available data on smoking status. Data was queried for demographic, clinical, molecular, and treatment characteristics. Smoking status was defined as active/former vs never smoker. P-value <0.05 defined as significant and <0.25 after multiple testing correction.
721 patients were identified; mean age 54.9±16 years at diagnosis and 58.2±14.3 at death or follow-up; 57% male; 58% GBM, 23% astrocytoma, 16% oligodendroglioma, 3% other glioma by 2016 WHO classification. Of these, 68.5% were never smokers and 31.4% current/former smokers; mean smoking duration 8±13 years. Most frequently altered genes were pTERT (63.6%), CDKN2A (39.7%), CDKN2B (38%), TP53 (33.2%), EGFR (31%), PTEN (31%), and IDH1 (20.7%). In all gliomas, alterations more frequent in smokers were TP53 (40.7% vs 26.9%, p=0.036, adjusted p=0.3) and RB1 (11.1% vs 0%, p<0.0009, adjusted p=0.02). In GBM, alterations in RB1 were more frequent in smokers (14.3% vs 0%, p<0.0051, adjusted p=0.14). In astrocytoma, TP53 alterations were more common in smokers (64.7% vs 29.2%, p=0.05, adjusted p=0.42). No differences were seen in oligodendroglioma. Median OS was shorter for smokers (46 vs 141 months, p=0.001) with 42% greater risk of death (HR 1.42, 95%CI 1.01–1.99, p=0.001), controlling for age and glioma diagnosis. 
Smokers have shorter survival from glioma. Differences in age and smoking-related genomic alterations may contribute to shortened survival.
