Promoter methylation of O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) is associated with a favorable prognosis in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and has been hypothesized to occur early in tumor transformation of glial cells. Thus, a possible link exists between the site of malignant transformation and MGMT promoter methylation status. Using the Analysis of Differential Involvement (ADIFFI) statistical mapping technique in a total of 358 patients with GBM, we demonstrate that human de novo GBMs occur in a high frequency contiguous with the posterior subventricular zone (SVZ); MGMT promoter methylated GBMs are lateralized to the left hemisphere, while MGMT unmethylated GBMs are lateralized to the right hemisphere; and tumors near the left temporal lobe have a significantly longer overall survival compared with tumors occurring elsewhere, independent of treatment or MGMT methylation status.
