Frequency of genetic and epigenetic alterations in primary tumors, NS and AC.
| Molecular marker | Primary GBM (%) | NS (%) | AC* (%) |
| LOH 1p, 9p, 10q, 17p, 19q | 16 (100) | 6 (100) | 0 (0) | EGFR amplification | 8 (50) | 3 (45) | 0 (0) | MGMT hypermethylation | 9 (50) | 4 (66.7) | 0 (0) | TP53 mutations | 5 (31.2) | 3 (50) | 0 (0) | PTEN mutations | 9 (56.2) | 4 (66.7) | 2 (22.2) | EGFR mutations | 1 (<1) | 0 (0) | 0 (0) | p.R132 IDH1 | 0 (0) | 0 (0) | 0 (0) | p.R172 IDH2 | 0 (0) | 0 (0) | 0 (0) |

*An exception is CV10 in which NS generated from AC. AC showed the same molecular profile of NS.
