CT characteristics in pulmonary adenocarcinoma with epidermal growth factor receptor mutation.

ABSTRACT: Comprehensively investigate the association of CT morphology and clinical findings of adenocarcinoma with EGFR mutation status. Retrospectively included 282 patients who was pathologically proved as lung adenocarcinoma with known EGFR mutation status (mutations: 138 patients, female: 86, median age: 66 years; wildtype: 144 patients, female: 67, median age: 62 years) and their pre-treatment CT scans were analyzed. CT findings and clinical information were collected. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression analysis were performed. Adjusted for age, gender and smoking history of two groups, significantly more patients with pleural tags, pleural and liver metastases were found in the EGFR mutated group (P = 0.007, 0.004, and 0.043, respectively). Multivariable logistic regression analysis found that the model included age, gender, smoking history, air bronchogram, pleural tags, pleural and liver metastasis had a moderate predictive value for EGFR mutation status (AUC = 0.741, P < .0001). Exon-19 deletion was associated with air bronchogram which adjusted for age, gender and smoking history (P = 0.007, OR: 2.91, 95%CI: 1.25-7.79). The evidence of pleural tags, pleural and liver metastases go along with a higher probability of EGFR mutation in adenocarcinoma patients and air bronchogram is positively associated with Exon-19 deletion mutation.

Project description:Purpose To retrospectively identify the relationship between epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status, predominant histologic subtype, and computed tomographic (CT) characteristics in surgically resected lung adenocarcinomas in a cohort of Asian patients. materials and Methods This study was approved by the institutional review board, with waiver of informed consent. Preoperative chest CT findings were retrospectively evaluated in 385 surgically resected lung adenocarcinomas. A total of 30 CT descriptors were assessed. EGFR mutations at exons 18-21 were determined by using the amplification refractory mutation system. Multiple logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent factors of harboring EGFR mutation status. The final model was selected by using the backward elimination method, and two areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) were compared with the nonparametric approach of DeLong, DeLong, and Clarke-Pearson. Results EGFR mutations were found in 168 (43.6%) of 385 patients. Mutations were found more frequently in (a) female patients (P < .001); (b)those who had never smoked (P < .001); (c)those with lepidic predominant adenocarcinomas (P = .001) or intermediate pathologic grade (P < .001); (e) smaller tumors (P < .001); (f)tumors with spiculation (P = .019), ground-glass opacity (GGO) or mixed GGO (P < .001), air bronchogram (P = .006), bubblelike lucency (P < .001), vascular convergence (P = .024), thickened adjacent bronchovascular bundles (P = .027), or pleural retraction (P < .001); and (g) tumors without pleural attachment (P = .004), a well-defined margin (P = .010), marked heterogeneous enhancement (P = .001), severe peripheral emphysema (P = .002), severe peripheral fibrosis (P = .013), or lymphadenopathy (P = .028). The most important and significantly independent prognostic factors of harboring EGFR-activating mutation for the model with both clinical variables and CT features were those who had never smoked and those with smaller tumors, bubblelike lucency, homogeneous enhancement, or pleural retraction when adjusting for histologic subtype, pathologic grade, or thickened adjacent bronchovascular bundles. ROC curve analysis showed that use of clinical variables combined with CT features (area under the ROC curve = 0.778) was superior to use of clinical variables alone (area under the ROC curve = 0.690). Conclusion CT imaging features of lung adenocarcinomas in combination with clinical variables can be used to prognosticate EGFR mutation status better than use of clinical variables alone.

Project description:Background Identifying epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations in lung adenocarcinoma (LADC) is vital for treatment decision-making. This study aimed to establish a convenient and noninvasive nomogram prediction model based on 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) imaging and clinical features to predict EGFR mutation status in patients with LADC. Methods A total of 274 patients (male 130, female 144, median age 65 years) were enrolled in this retrospective study. Imaging data from 18F-FDG PET/CT and clinical information were analyzed, with the Mann-Whitney U test, Student’s t-test, and chi-square test used to compare categorical or continuous covariates as appropriate. Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent variables associated with EGFR mutation status, from which the nomogram prediction model was constructed. Leave-one-out cross-validation was performed, and the discrimination ability and calibration of the nomogram were assessed by calculating the area under the curve of the receiver operating characteristic curve and the calibration curve. The clinical net benefit of the nomogram was evaluated. Results Of the 274 patients, 143 (52.2%) had EGFR mutations. Female sex [odds ratios (OR): 2.64, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.29–5.45, P=0.008], non-smoking status (OR: 2.78, 95% CI: 1.30–5.88, P=0.008), mean standardized uptake value ≤9.23 (OR: 2.44, 95% CI: 1.35–4.55, P=0.004), metabolic tumor volume ≤17.72 cm3 (OR: 5.00, 95% CI: 2.38–12.50, P<0.001) and the presence of pleural retraction (OR: 1.88, 95% CI: 1.05–3.40, P=0.034) were independent predictors for EGFR mutations in LADCs. The nomogram based on these risk factors showed good predictive efficacy, with an area under the curve of 0.805 (95% CI: 0.753–0.857), a sensitivity of 90.2%, a specificity of 59.5% and an accuracy of 73.0%. Conclusions The nomogram prediction model incorporating sex, smoking status, mean standardized uptake value, metabolic tumor volume, and the presence of pleural retraction could effectively discriminate EGFR-mutant from wild-type LADCs.
