Baseline 18F-FDG PET/CT parameters as imaging biomarkers of overall survival in castrate-resistant metastatic prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this prospective investigation was to assess the association of parameters derived from baseline (18)F-FDG PET/CT with overall survival (OS) in men with castrate-resistant metastatic prostate cancer.Eighty-seven men with castrate-resistant metastatic prostate cancer underwent (18)F-FDG PET/CT and were followed prospectively for OS. Median follow-up in patients who were alive was 22.2 mo (range, 1.6-62.5 mo). OS was defined as the time between the PET/CT imaging or the start of chemotherapy, whichever was later, and death, with patients who were alive censored at the last follow-up date. PET parameters included maximum standardized uptake value (SUV(max)) of the most active lesion, sum of SUV(max), and average SUV(max) of all metabolically active lesions, after subtraction of patient-specific background-liver average SUV. Comparison of OS was based on univariate and multivariable Cox regression analyses of continuous PET parameters adjusted for standard clinical parameters (age, serum prostate-specific antigen level, alkaline phosphatase, use of pain medication, prior chemotherapy, and Gleason score at initial diagnosis). Survival curves based on Kaplan-Meier estimates are presented.Among the 87 patients, 61 were dead at the time of last follow-up. Median OS was 16.5 mo (95% confidence interval [CI], 12.1-23.4 mo), and the OS probability at 24 mo was 39% ± 6%. For the univariate analysis, the hazard ratios associated with each unit increase were 1.01 (95% CI, 1.006-1.02) for sum of SUV(max) (P = 0.002), 1.11 (95% CI, 1.03-1.18) for maximum SUV(max) (P = 0.010), and 1.13 (95% CI, 0.99-1.30) for average SUV(max) (P = 0.095). For the multivariable analysis adjusting for relevant clinical parameters, the continuous parameter sum of SUV(max) remained significant (P = 0.053), with a hazard ratio of 1.01 (95% CI, 1.001-1.02). When sum of SUV(max) was grouped into quartile ranges, there was poorer survival probability for the patients in the fourth-quartile range than for those in the first-quartile range, with a univariate hazard ratio of 3.8 (95% CI, 1.8-7.9).Sum of SUV(max) derived from (18)F-FDG PET/CT contributes independent prognostic information on OS in men with castrate-resistant metastatic prostate cancer, and this information may be useful in assessing the comparative effectiveness of various conventional and emerging treatment strategies.

Project description:Purpose:In the present study, we aimed to investigate whether the metabolic parameters on baseline 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) could be used to predict prognosis in peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL). Methods:A total of 51 nodal PTCL patients who underwent baseline 18F-FDG PET/CT were retrospectively evaluated in the present study. Total metabolic tumor volume (TMTV), total lesion glycolysis (TLG), and maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) were also assessed. Besides, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network International Prognostic Index (NCCN-IPI) was also included. Log-rank test and Cox regression analysis were used to evaluate progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results:The median follow-up was 18 months. Patients with low TLG, TMTV, and SUVmax levels had a significantly better clinical outcome than those with high TLG, TMTV, and SUVmax levels. The 2-year PFS rates of the high- and low-TMTV groups were 34.62% and 80%, respectively (p < 0.001), whereas the corresponding 2-year OS rates were 46.15% and 84.00%, respectively (p < 0.001), whereas the corresponding 2-year OS rates were 46.15% and 84.00%, respectively (p < 0.001), whereas the corresponding 2-year OS rates were 46.15% and 84.00%, respectively (p < 0.001), whereas the corresponding 2-year OS rates were 46.15% and 84.00%, respectively (p < 0.001), whereas the corresponding 2-year OS rates were 46.15% and 84.00%, respectively (p < 0.001), whereas the corresponding 2-year OS rates were 46.15% and 84.00%, respectively (p < 0.001), whereas the corresponding 2-year OS rates were 46.15% and 84.00%, respectively (p < 0.001), whereas the corresponding 2-year OS rates were 46.15% and 84.00%, respectively (p < 0.001), whereas the corresponding 2-year OS rates were 46.15% and 84.00%, respectively (p < 0.001), whereas the corresponding 2-year OS rates were 46.15% and 84.00%, respectively (p < 0.001), whereas the corresponding 2-year OS rates were 46.15% and 84.00%, respectively (p < 0.001), whereas the corresponding 2-year OS rates were 46.15% and 84.00%, respectively (n = 10), intermediate-risk group with TMTV > 62.405 or NCCN-IPI score of 4-8 (2-year PFS and OS were 52.4% and 66.7%, respectively, n = 10), intermediate-risk group with TMTV > 62.405 or NCCN-IPI score of 4-8 (2-year PFS and OS were 52.4% and 66.7%, respectively, n = 10), intermediate-risk group with TMTV > 62.405 or NCCN-IPI score of 4-8 (2-year PFS and OS were 52.4% and 66.7%, respectively. Conclusions:Baseline TMTV and TLG were independent predictors of PFS and OS in PTCL patients, and SUVmax and NCCN-IPI scores were also independent predictors of OS. Moreover, the combination of TMTV and NCCN-IPI scores improved patient risk-stratification at the initial stage and might contribute to the adjustment of the therapeutic regime. This trial is registered with ChiCTR1900025526.

Project description:BackgroundLangerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare myeloid precursor cell inflammatory neoplasia, which agonizes, maims, and even kills patients. Although clinical outcomes have steadily improved over the past decades, the progression/relapse rate of LCH remains high. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of the pre-treatment metabolism parameters of baseline 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F‑FDG PET/CT) in children with LCH.MethodsThis cross-sectional study retrospectively and consecutively included 37 children (24 males and 13 females; median age, 5.1 years; range, 2.4-7.8 years) with pre-treatment 18F-FDG PET/CT from September 2020 to September 2022 in Nuclear Medicine Department, Beijing friendship hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China. These patients were then all admitted to the hospital and diagnosed with LCH by biopsy, in Hematology Center, Beijing Children's Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China. Five metabolism parameters of 18F-FDG PET/CT were analyzed, including maximum standardized uptake, tumor-to-normal liver standard uptake value ratio, tumor-to-normal bone marrow standard uptake value ratio, sum of metabolic tumor volume (sMTV), and sum of total lesion glycolysis (sTLG) of all lesions. Patients were followed up for at least 1 year or until disease progression/relapse. Univariate and multivariate analyses of progression-free survival was performed.ResultsDuring follow-up, 11 (29.7%) patients had disease progression/relapse. Univariate analysis revealed that the risk organ involvement, the treatment response at the 5th or 11th week, pre-treatment sMTV, and sTLG were significantly associated with progression-free survival (P=0.024, 0.018, 0.006, 0.006, and 0.042, respectively). Multivariate COX analysis revealed that non-response at the 11th week, pre-treatment sMTV >32.55 g/cm3, and sTLG >98.86 g (P=0.002, 0.020, 0.026, respectively) were risk factors for progression-free survival.ConclusionsThe baseline metabolism parameters of 18F-FDG PET/CT could be promising imaging biomarkers for predicting prognosis in children with LCH.
