Abstract:
PURPOSE:To investigate the prognostic performance of radiomics features, as extracted from positron emission tomography (PET) and X-ray computed tomography (CT) components of baseline 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose ([18F]FDG) PET/CT images and integrated with clinical parameters, in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). PROCEDURES:One hundred twenty-eight NPC patients (85 vs. 43 for training vs. validation), containing a subset of 86 patients with local-regional advanced stage, were enrolled. All patients underwent pretreatment PET/CT scans (mean follow-up time 24 ± 14 months). Three thousand two hundred seventy-six radiomics features extracted from PET or CT components and 13 clinical parameters were used to predict progression-free survival (PFS). Univariate analysis with Benjamini-Hochberg false discovery rate (FDR) correction was first used to screen significant features, and redundant features with Spearman's correlation > 0.8 were further eliminated. Then, seven multivariate models involving PET features and/or CT features and/or clinical parameters (denoted as clinical, PET, CT, clinical + PET, clinical + CT, PET + CT and clinical + PET + CT) were constructed by forward stepwise multivariate Cox regression. Model performance was evaluated by concordance index (C-index). RESULTS:Sixty patients encountered events (28 recurrences, 17 metastases, and 15 deaths). Six clinical parameters, 3 PET features, and 14 CT features in training cohort and 4 clinical parameters, 10 PET features, and 4 CT features in subset of local-regional advanced stage were significantly associated with PFS. Combining PET and/or CT features with clinical parameters showed equal or higher prognostic performance than models with PET or CT or clinical parameters alone (C-index 0.71-0.76 vs. 0.67-0.73 and 0.62-0.75 vs. 0.54-0.75 for training and validation cohorts, respectively), while the prognostic performance was significantly improved in local-regional advanced cohort (C-index 0.67-0.84 vs. 0.64-0.77, p value 0.001-0.059). CONCLUSION:Radiomics features extracted from the PET and CT components of baseline PET/CT images provide complementary prognostic information and improved outcome prediction for NPC patients compared with use of clinical parameters alone.
