Overall survival prediction of non-small cell lung cancer by integrating microarray and clinical data with deep learning.

ABSTRACT: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most common lung cancers worldwide. Accurate prognostic stratification of NSCLC can become an important clinical reference when designing therapeutic strategies for cancer patients. With this clinical application in mind, we developed a deep neural network (DNN) combining heterogeneous data sources of gene expression and clinical data to accurately predict the overall survival of NSCLC patients. Based on microarray data from a cohort set (614 patients), seven well-known NSCLC biomarkers were used to group patients into biomarker- and biomarker+ subgroups. Then, by using a systems biology approach, prognosis relevance values (PRV) were then calculated to select eight additional novel prognostic gene biomarkers. Finally, the combined 15 biomarkers along with clinical data were then used to develop an integrative DNN via bimodal learning to predict the 5-year survival status of NSCLC patients with tremendously high accuracy (AUC: 0.8163, accuracy: 75.44%). Using the capability of deep learning, we believe that our prediction can be a promising index that helps oncologists and physicians develop personalized therapy and build the foundation of precision medicine in the future.

Project description:ObjectivesThis study aims to establish nomograms to accurately predict the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who received chemotherapy alone as the first-line treatment.Materials and methodsIn a training cohort of 121 NSCLC patients, radiomic features were extracted, selected from intra- and peri-tumoral regions, and used to build signatures (S1 and S2) using a Cox regression model. Deep learning features were obtained from three convolutional neural networks and utilized to build signatures (S3, S4, and S5) that were stratified into over- and under-expression subgroups for survival risk using X-tile. After univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, a nomogram incorporating the tumor, node, and metastasis (TNM) stages, radiomic signature, and deep learning signature was established to predict OS and PFS, respectively. The performance was validated using an independent cohort (61 patients).ResultsTNM stages, S2 and S3 were identified as the significant prognosis factors for both OS and PFS; S2 (OS: (HR (95%), 2.26 (1.40-3.67); PFS: (HR (95%), 2.23 (1.36-3.65)) demonstrated the best ability in discriminating patients with over- and under-expression. For the OS nomogram, the C-index (95% CI) was 0.74 (0.70-0.79) and 0.72 (0.67-0.78) in the training and validation cohorts, respectively; for the PFS nomogram, the C-index (95% CI) was 0.71 (0.68-0.81) and 0.72 (0.66-0.79). The calibration curves for the 3- and 5-year OS and PFS were in acceptable agreement between the predicted and observed survival. The established nomogram presented a higher overall net benefit than the TNM stage for predicting both OS and PFS.ConclusionBy integrating the TNM stage, CT radiomic signature, and deep learning signatures, the established nomograms can predict the individual prognosis of NSCLC patients who received chemotherapy. The integrated nomogram has the potential to improve the individualized treatment and precise management of NSCLC patients.

Project description:PurposeNovel actuarial deep learning neural network (ADNN) architectures are proposed for joint prediction of radiation therapy outcomes-radiation pneumonitis (RP) and local control (LC)-in stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Unlike normal tissue complication probability/tumor control probability models that use dosimetric information solely, our proposed models consider complex interactions among multiomics information including positron emission tomography (PET) radiomics, cytokines, and miRNAs. Additional time-to-event information is also used in the actuarial prediction.Methods and materialsThree architectures were investigated: ADNN-DVH considered dosimetric information only; ADNN-com integrated multiomics information; and ADNN-com-joint combined RP2 (RP grade ≥2) and LC prediction. In these architectures, differential dose-volume histograms (DVHs) were fed into 1D convolutional neural networks (CNN) for extracting reduced representations. Variational encoders were used to learn representations of imaging and biological data. Reduced representations were fed into Surv-Nets to predict time-to-event probabilities for RP2 and LC independently and jointly by incorporating time information into designated loss functions.ResultsModels were evaluated on 117 retrospective patients and were independently tested on 25 newly accrued patients prospectively. A multi-institutional RTOG0617 data set of 327 patients was used for external validation. ADNN-DVH yielded cross-validated c-indexes (95% confidence intervals) of 0.660 (0.630-0.690) for RP2 prediction and 0.727 (0.700-0.753) for LC prediction, outperforming a generalized Lyman model for RP2 (0.613 [0.583-0.643]) and a generalized log-logistic model for LC (0.569 [0.545-0.594]). The independent internal test and external validation yielded similar results. ADNN-com achieved an even better performance than ADNN-DVH on both cross-validation and independent internal test. Furthermore, ADNN-com-joint, which yielded performance similar to ADNN-com, realized joint prediction with c-indexes of 0.705 (0.676-0.734) for RP2 and 0.740 (0.714-0.765) for LC and achieved an area under a free-response receiving operator characteristic curve (AU-FROC) of 0.729 (0.697-0.773) for the joint prediction of RP2 and LC.ConclusionNovel deep learning architectures that integrate multiomics information outperformed traditional normal tissue complication probability/tumor control probability models in actuarial prediction of RP2 and LC.
