The G105G SNP (rs11554137) in the IDH1 gene is observed in about 10–15% of patients with a diffuse glioma. Data regarding its impact on gliomas are poor and partially conflicting, possibly due to the evolving classification of CNS tumors. The aim of this study was to investigate the G105G SNP prognostic significance in a homogenous cohort of IDH-wildtype glioblastomas, in agreement with the 2021 WHO classification. The study analyzed 211 patients by collecting several clinico-pathological and molecular characteristics, including the age, lesion localization, number of involved lobes, type of surgical treatment, disease outcome and MGMT promoter methylation status. PFS and DSS curves were plotted according to the Kaplan–Meier method and statistical analyses were performed using parametric and non-parametric tests. A total of 32 patients out of 211 (15.2%) were found to be G105G SNP carriers. No significant impact of the IDH1 G105G SNP on patients’ outcomes was observed in terms of PFS and DSS, while MGMT promoter methylation and gross total resection resulted as key prognostic factors in our cohort as expected. No prognostic impact of the IDH1 G105G SNP was detected in this strict cohort of IDH-wildtype glioblastomas. Analysis of larger cohorts is warranted to address the sample size limitations.
