Development and validation of MMR prediction model based on simplified clinicopathological features and serum tumour markers.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Although simplified clinicopathological features and serum tumour markers (STMs) were reported to be associated with the status of mismatch repair (MMR) in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients, their predictive value alone or in combination for MMR status remains unknown. METHODS:A retrospective analysis of 3274 participants with MMR testing and STMs measurements from two institutions was conducted. The prediction model was developed in the primary cohort that consisted of 1964 participants. Best subset regression was applied to select the most useful predictors from the primary dataset. The performance of the nomogram was evaluated with respect to its calibration, discrimination, and clinical usefulness. External validation was performed in an independent validation cohort of 1310 consecutive CRC patients. FINDINGS:Among the ten simplified clinicopathological features, seven variables were selected as the best subset of risk factors to develop pathology-based model, including age, tumour diameters, histology, tumour location, perineural invasion, the number of sampled lymph nodes (LNs) and positive LNs. The model showed good calibration and discrimination, with an AUC of 0.756 (95% CI, 0.722 to 0.789) in the primary cohort and 0.754 (95% CI, 0.715 to 0.793) in the validation cohort. After the addition of CEA and CA 72-4, the performance of pathology-based model was significantly improved in in both the primary cohort (AUC: 0.805 (0.774-0.835) vs. 0.756 (0.722-0.789), P < 0.001) and validation cohort (AUC: 0.796 (0.758-0.835) vs. 0.754 (0.715-0.793), P < 0.001). The results of decision curve analysis revealed that using our models to predict the status of MMR would add more benefit than either the detect-all-patients scheme or the detect-none scheme. INTERPRETATION:The models based on simplified clinicopathological features alone or in combination with STMs can be conveniently used to facilitate the postoperative individualized prediction of MMR status in CRC patients.

Project description:Background This study aims to (1) identify preoperative testing-based characteristics associated with enhanced prognosis and survival for cholangiocarcinoma patients, and (2)create a distinctive nomogram to anticipate each patient’s cancer-specific survival (CSS). Methods Retrospective analysis was performed on 197 CCA patients who underwent radical surgery at Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital; they were divided into a 131-person “training cohort” and a 66-person “internal validation cohort.“ The prognostic nomogram was created following a preliminary Cox proportional hazard regression search for independent factors influencing the patients’ CSS. Its applicable domain was examined via an external validation cohort, which included 235 patients from the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center. Results The median follow-up period for the 131 patients in the training group was 49.3 months (range, 9.3 to 133.9 months). One-, three-, and five-year CSS rates were 68.7%, 24.5%, and 9.2%, respectively, with the median CSS length being 27.4 months (range: 1.4 to 125.2 months). PLT, CEA, AFP, tumor location, differentiation, lymph node metastasis, chemotherapy, and TNM stage were determined to be independent risk factors for CCA patients by univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis. We were able to accurately predict postoperative CSS after incorporating all of these characteristics into a nomogram. The AJCC’s 8th edition staging method’s C-indices were statistically substantially (P < 0.001) lower than the nomogram’s C-indices (0.84, 0.77, and 0.74 in the training, internal and external validation cohorts respectively). Conclusions A realistic and useful model for clinical decision-making and the optimization of therapy is presented as a nomogram that includes serum markers and clinicopathologic features for predicting postoperative survival in cholangiocarcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundIt remains unknown to what extent consensus molecular subtype (CMS) groups and immune-stromal infiltration patterns improve our ability to predict outcomes over tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging and microsatellite instability (MSI) status in early-stage colorectal cancer (CRC).Patients and methodsWe carried out a comprehensive retrospective biomarker analysis of prognostic markers in adjuvant chemotherapy-untreated (N = 1656) and treated (N = 980), stage II (N = 1799) and III (N = 837) CRCs. We defined CMS scores and estimated CD8+ cytotoxic lymphocytes (CytoLym) and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) infiltration scores from bulk tumor tissue transcriptomes (CMSclassifier and MCPcounter R packages); constructed a stratified multivariable Cox model for disease-free survival (DFS); and calculated the relative proportion of explained variation by each marker (clinicopathological [ClinPath], genomics [Gen: MSI, BRAF and KRAS mutations], CMS scores [CMS] and microenvironment cells [MicroCells: CytoLym+CAF]).ResultsIn multivariable models, only ClinPath and MicroCells remained significant prognostic factors, with both CytoLym and CAF infiltration scores improving survival prediction beyond other markers. The explained variation for DFS models of ClinPath, MicroCells, Gen markers and CMS4 scores was 77%, 14%, 5.3% and 3.7%, respectively, in stage II; and 55.9%, 35.1%, 4.1% and 0.9%, respectively, in stage III. Patients whose tumors were CytoLym high/CAF low had better DFS than other strata [HR=0.71 (0.6-0.9); P = 0.004]. Microsatellite stable tumors had the strongest signal for improved outcomes with CytoLym high scores (interaction P = 0.04) and the poor prognosis linked to high CAF scores was limited to stage III disease (interaction P = 0.04).ConclusionsOur results confirm that tumor microenvironment infiltration patterns represent potent determinants of the risk for distant dissemination in early-stage CRC. Multivariable models suggest that the prognostic value of MSI and CMS groups is largely explained by CytoLym and CAF infiltration patterns.

Project description:BackgroundThe COVID-19 pandemic has affected millions of individuals and caused hundreds of thousands of deaths worldwide. Predicting mortality among patients with COVID-19 who present with a spectrum of complications is very difficult, hindering the prognostication and management of the disease. We aimed to develop an accurate prediction model of COVID-19 mortality using unbiased computational methods, and identify the clinical features most predictive of this outcome.MethodsIn this prediction model development and validation study, we applied machine learning techniques to clinical data from a large cohort of patients with COVID-19 treated at the Mount Sinai Health System in New York City, NY, USA, to predict mortality. We analysed patient-level data captured in the Mount Sinai Data Warehouse database for individuals with a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 who had a health system encounter between March 9 and April 6, 2020. For initial analyses, we used patient data from March 9 to April 5, and randomly assigned (80:20) the patients to the development dataset or test dataset 1 (retrospective). Patient data for those with encounters on April 6, 2020, were used in test dataset 2 (prospective). We designed prediction models based on clinical features and patient characteristics during health system encounters to predict mortality using the development dataset. We assessed the resultant models in terms of the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) score in the test datasets.FindingsUsing the development dataset (n=3841) and a systematic machine learning framework, we developed a COVID-19 mortality prediction model that showed high accuracy (AUC=0·91) when applied to test datasets of retrospective (n=961) and prospective (n=249) patients. This model was based on three clinical features: patient's age, minimum oxygen saturation over the course of their medical encounter, and type of patient encounter (inpatient vs outpatient and telehealth visits).InterpretationAn accurate and parsimonious COVID-19 mortality prediction model based on three features might have utility in clinical settings to guide the management and prognostication of patients affected by this disease. External validation of this prediction model in other populations is needed.FundingNational Institutes of Health.

Project description:IntroductionThis study aimed at generating a new simplified prognostic score (SPS) using common clinical and biological variables to discriminate a limited number of subgroups of patients with SCLC differing by their overall survival (OS).MethodsThe SPS was developed exploring the Montpellier University Hospital retrospective database of 401 patients over a 16-year period. All patients had received etoposide - platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment. The SPS development took into account significant determinants of OS in the Cox model, weighted by their regression β coefficients. Validation of the consequent SPS has been done separately in a combined population of 213 patients accrued from two different published trials (NCT03059667 and NCT00930891).ResultsThe significant independent determinants of OS included the following: (1) American Joint Committee on Cancer TNM stage IV (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.52; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.91-3.33); (2) Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status greater than 1 (HR: 2.27; 95% CI: 1.79-2.87); (3) the presence of liver metastases (HR: 1.66; 95% CI: 1.29-2.15); and (4) neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio greater than 4 (HR: 1.39; 95% CI: 1.11-1.92). The SPS generated with these four variables, segregated three groups (good, intermediate, and poor prognosis) with respective median OS of 26.9 months (95% CI: 20.1-38.9), 11.5 months (95% CI: 9.8-13.0), and 6.8 months (95% CI: 5.8-8.3; log-rank p < 10-4). Harrell's C statistic estimate was 0.68 ± 0.012, suggesting goodness of calibration. In the validation cohort, the SPS segregated the aforementioned three subgroups in a nearly similar manner, with respective median OS: 27.2, 12.3, and 8.6 months (log-rank p < 10-3; Harrell's C statistic: 0.58 ± 0.02).ConclusionsThe SPS is easy to calculate in real-life practice and efficiently discriminates three populations with different prognoses. This study deserves further validation of this score in patients with SCLC receiving immunochemotherapy.
