MET fusions and splicing variants is a strong adverse prognostic factor in astrocytoma, isocitrate dehydrogenase mutant.

Liu et al. describe the adverse prognostic role of MET fusions and splicing variants in astrocytoma, isocitrate dehydrogenase mutant. On this basis, MET fusions and splicing variants was suggested to be a biomarker for the diagnosis of high-grade astrocytoma, isocitrate dehydrogenase mutant.
