PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutant gliomas are a distinct type of primary brain tumors with unique characteristics, behavior, and disease outcomes. This article provides a review of standard of care treatment options and innovative, therapeutic approaches that are currently under investigation for these tumors. RECENT FINDINGS: Extensive pre-clinical data and a variety of clinical studies support targeting IDH mutations in glioma using different mechanisms, which include direct inhibition and immunotherapies that target metabolic and epigenomic vulnerabilities caused by these mutations. IDH mutations have been recognized as an oncogenic driver in gliomas for more than a decade and as a positive prognostic factor influencing the research for new therapeutic methods including IDH inhibitors, DNA repair inhibitors, and immunotherapy.
