Decoding tumor mutation burden and driver mutations in early stage lung adenocarcinoma using CT-based radiomics signature.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Tumor mutation burden (TMB) is an important determinant and biomarker for response of targeted therapy and prognosis in patients with lung cancer. The present study aimed to determine whether radiomics signature could non-invasively predict the TMB status and driver mutations in patients with resectable early stage lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).

Methods

A total of 61pulmonary nodules (PNs) from 51 patients post-operatively diagnosed LUAD were enrolled for analysis. Two datasets were divided according to two-thirds of patients from different commercial Comprehensive Genomic Profiling (CGP) panels: a training cohort including 41 PNs and a testing cohort including rest 20PNs. We sequenced all tumor specimens and paired blood cells using next generation sequencing (NGS), so as to detect TMB status and somatic mutations. We collected 718 quantitative 3D radiomics features extracted from segmented volumes of each PNs and 78 clinical and pathological features retrieved from medical records as well. Support vector machine methods were performed to establish the predictive model.

Results

We established an efficient fusion-positive tumor prediction model that predicts TMB status and EGFR/TP53 mutations of early stage LUAD. The radiomics signature yielded a median AUC value of 0.606, 0.604, and 0.586 respectively. Combining radiomics with the clinical information can further improve the prediction performance, which the median AUC values are 0.671 for TMB, 0.697 and 0.656 for EGFR/TP53 respectively.

Conclusion

It is feasible and effective to facilitate TMB and somatic driver mutations prediction by using the radiomics signature and NGS data in early stage LUAD.

Project description:To recognize the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutation status in lung adenocarcinoma (LADC) has become a prerequisite of deciding whether EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) medicine can be used. Polymerase chain reaction assay or gene sequencing is for measuring EGFR status, however, the tissue samples by surgery or biopsy are required. We propose to develop deep learning models to recognize EGFR status by using radiomics features extracted from non-invasive CT images. Preoperative CT images, EGFR mutation status and clinical data have been collected in a cohort of 709 patients (the primary cohort) and an independent cohort of 205 patients. After 1,037 CT-based radiomics features are extracted from each lesion region, 784 discriminative features are selected for analysis and construct a feature mapping. One Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE) Convolutional Neural Network (SE-CNN) has been designed and trained to recognize EGFR status from the radiomics feature mapping. SE-CNN model is trained and validated by using 638 patients from the primary cohort, tested by using the rest 71 patients (the internal test cohort), and further tested by using the independent 205 patients (the external test cohort). Furthermore, SE-CNN model is compared with machine learning (ML) models using radiomics features, clinical features, and both features. EGFR(-) patients show the smaller age, higher odds of female, larger lesion volumes, and lower odds of subtype of acinar predominant adenocarcinoma (APA), compared with EGFR(+). The most discriminative features are for texture (614, 78.3%) and the features of first order of intensity (158, 20.1%) and the shape features (12, 1.5%) follow. SE-CNN model can recognize EGFR mutation status with an AUC of 0.910 and 0.841 for the internal and external test cohorts, respectively. It outperforms the CNN model without SE, the fine-tuned VGG16 and VGG19, three ML models, and the state-of-art models. Utilizing radiomics feature mapping extracted from non-invasive CT images, SE-CNN can precisely recognize EGFR mutation status of LADC patients. The proposed method combining radiomics features and deep leaning is superior to ML methods and can be expanded to other medical applications. The proposed SE-CNN model may help make decision on usage of EGFR-TKI medicine.

Project description:Objective: To evaluate whether a radiomics signature could improve stratification of postoperative risk and prediction of chemotherapy benefit in stage II colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. Material and Methods: This retrospective study enrolled 299 stage II CRC patients from January 2010 to December 2015. Based on preoperative portal venous-phase CT scans, radiomics features were generated and selected to build a radiomics score (Rad-score) using the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) method. The minority group was balanced by the synthetic minority over-sampling technique (SMOTE). Predictive models were built with the Rad-score and clinicopathological factors, and the area under the curve (AUC) was used to evaluate their performance. A nomogram was also constructed for predicting 3-year disease-free survival (DFS). The performance of the nomogram was assessed with a concordance index (C-index) and calibration plots. Results: Overall, 114 features were selected to construct the Rad-score, which was significantly associated with the 3-year DFS. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the Rad-score, CA724 level, mismatch repair status, and perineural invasion were independent predictors of recurrence. Results showed that the Rad-score can classify patients into high-risk and low-risk groups in the training cohort (AUC 0.886) and the validation cohort (AUC 0.874). On this basis, a nomogram that integrated the Rad-score and clinical variables demonstrated superior performance (AUC 0.954, 0.906) than the clinical model alone (AUC 0.765, 0.705) in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. The C-index of the nomogram was 0.872, and the performance was acceptable. Conclusion: Our radiomics-based model can reliably predict recurrence risk in stage II CRC patients and potentially provide complementary prognostic value to the traditional clinicopathological risk factors for better identification of patients who are most likely to benefit from adjuvant therapy. The proposed nomogram promises to be an effective tool for personalized postoperative surveillance for stage II CRC patients.

Project description:PurposeHigh-dimensional image features that underlie COVID-19 pneumonia remain opaque. We aim to compare feature engineering and deep learning methods to gain insights into the image features that drive CT-based for COVID-19 pneumonia prediction, and uncover CT image features significant for COVID-19 pneumonia from deep learning and radiomics framework.MethodsA total of 266 patients with COVID-19 and other viral pneumonia with clinical symptoms and CT signs similar to that of COVID-19 during the outbreak were retrospectively collected from three hospitals in China and the USA. All the pneumonia lesions on CT images were manually delineated by four radiologists. One hundred eighty-four patients (n = 93 COVID-19 positive; n = 91 COVID-19 negative; 24,216 pneumonia lesions from 12,001 CT image slices) from two hospitals from China served as discovery cohort for model development. Thirty-two patients (17 COVID-19 positive, 15 COVID-19 negative; 7883 pneumonia lesions from 3799 CT image slices) from a US hospital served as external validation cohort. A bi-directional adversarial network-based framework and PyRadiomics package were used to extract deep learning and radiomics features, respectively. Linear and Lasso classifiers were used to develop models predictive of COVID-19 versus non-COVID-19 viral pneumonia.Results120-dimensional deep learning image features and 120-dimensional radiomics features were extracted. Linear and Lasso classifiers identified 32 high-dimensional deep learning image features and 4 radiomics features associated with COVID-19 pneumonia diagnosis (P < 0.0001). Both models achieved sensitivity > 73% and specificity > 75% on external validation cohort with slight superior performance for radiomics Lasso classifier. Human expert diagnostic performance improved (increase by 16.5% and 11.6% in sensitivity and specificity, respectively) when using a combined deep learning-radiomics model.ConclusionsWe uncover specific deep learning and radiomics features to add insight into interpretability of machine learning algorithms and compare deep learning and radiomics models for COVID-19 pneumonia that might serve to augment human diagnostic performance.

Project description:ObjectivesTo develop and validate the imbalanced data correction based PET/CT radiomics model for predicting lymph node metastasis (LNM) in clinical stage T1 lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).MethodsA total of 183 patients (148/35 non-metastasis/LNM) with pathologically confirmed LUAD were retrospectively included. The cohorts were divided into training vs. validation cohort in a ratio of 7:3. A total of 487 radiomics features were extracted from PET and CT components separately for radiomics model construction. Four clinical features and seven PET/CT radiological features were extracted for traditional model construction. To balance the distribution of majority (non-metastasis) class and minority (LNM) class, the imbalance-adjustment strategies using ten data re-sampling methods were adopted. Three multivariate models (denoted as Traditional, Radiomics, and Combined) were constructed using multivariable logistic regression analysis, where the combined model incorporated all of the significant clinical, radiological, and radiomics features. One hundred times repeated Monte Carlo cross-validation was used to assess the application order of feature selection and imbalance-adjustment strategies in the machine learning pipeline. Prediction performance of each model was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and Geometric mean score (G-mean).ResultsA total of 2 clinical parameters, 2 radiological features, 3 PET, and 5 CT radiomics features were significantly associated with LNM. The combined model with Edited Nearest Neighbors (ENN) re-sampling methods showed strong prediction performance than traditional model or radiomics model with the AUC of 0.94 (95%CI = 0.86-0.97) vs. 0.89 (95%CI = 0.79-0.93), 0.92 (95%CI = 0.85-0.97), and G-mean of 0.88 vs. 0.82, 0.80 in the training cohort, and the AUC of 0.75 (95%CI = 0.57-0.91) vs. 0.68 (95%CI = 0.36-0.83), 0.71 (95%CI = 0.48-0.83) and G-mean of 0.76 vs. 0.64, 0.51 in the validation cohort. The combination of performing feature selection before data re-sampling obtains a better result than the reverse combination (AUC 0.76 ± 0.06 vs. 0.70 ± 0.07, p<0.001).ConclusionsThe combined model (consisting of age, histological type, C/T ratio, MATV, and radiomics signature) integrated with ENN re-sampling methods had strong lymph node metastasis prediction performance for imbalance cohorts in clinical stage T1 LUAD. Radiomics signatures extracted from PET/CT images could provide complementary prediction information compared with traditional model.
