H3 K27M-mutant gliomas in adults vs. children share similar histological features and adverse prognosis
[Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC5822176
Evidence Type(s): Prognostic, Oncogenic
Justification: Prognostic: The text indicates that longer survival has been reported in some patients with H3 K27M-mutant tumors, suggesting that the presence of this mutation may correlate with survival outcomes. Oncogenic: The H3 K27M mutation is associated with the transformation of tumors, as seen in the case where a pure ganglioglioma transformed into glioblastoma, indicating its role in tumorigenesis.
