Integrated CT Radiomics Features Could Enhance the Efficacy of ¹⁸F-FET PET for Non-Invasive Isocitrate Dehydrogenase Genotype Prediction in Adult Untreated Gliomas: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

We aimed to investigate the predictive models based on O-[2-(¹⁸F)fluoroethyl]-l-tyrosine positron emission tomography/computed tomography (¹⁸F-FET PET/CT) radiomics features for the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) genotype identification in adult gliomas.

Methods

Fifty-eight consecutive pathologically confirmed adult glioma patients with pretreatment ¹⁸F-FET PET/CT were retrospectively enrolled. One hundred and five radiomics features were extracted for analysis in each modality. Three independent radiomics models (PET-Rad Model, CT-Rad Model and PET/CT-Rad Model) predicting IDH mutation status were generated using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis based on machine learning algorithms. All-subsets regression and cross validation were applied for the filter and calibration of the predictive radiomics models. Besides, semi-quantitative parameters including maximum, peak and mean tumor to background ratio (TBRmax, TBRpeak, TBRmean), standard deviation of glioma lesion standardized uptake value (SUV_SD), metabolic tumor volume (MTV) and total lesion tracer uptake (TLU) were obtained and filtered for the simple model construction with clinical feature of brain midline involvement status. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was applied for the evaluation of the predictive models.

Results

The AUC of the simple predictive model consists of semi-quantitative parameter SUV_SD and dichotomized brain midline involvement status was 0.786 (95% CI 0.659-0.883). The AUC of PET-Rad Model building with three ¹⁸F-FET PET radiomics parameters was 0.812 (95% CI 0.688-0.902). The AUC of CT-Rad Model building with three co-registered CT radiomics parameters was 0.883 (95% CI 0.771-0.952). While the AUC of the combined ¹⁸F-FET PET/CT-Rad Model building with three CT and one PET radiomics features was 0.912 (95% CI 0.808-0.970). DeLong test results indicated the PET/CT-Rad Model outperformed the PET-Rad Model (p = 0.048) and simple predictive model (p = 0.034). Further combination of the PET/CT-Rad Model with the clinical feature of dichotomized tumor location status could slightly enhance the AUC to 0.917 (95% CI 0.814-0.973).

Conclusion

The predictive model combining ¹⁸F-FET PET and integrated CT radiomics features could significantly enhance and well balance the non-invasive IDH genotype prediction in untreated gliomas, which is important in clinical decision making for personalized treatment.

Project description:PurposeTo evaluate whether quantitative [18F]FDG-PET/CT assessment, including radiomic analysis of [18F]FDG-positive thyroid nodules, improved the preoperative differentiation of indeterminate thyroid nodules of non-Hürthle cell and Hürthle cell cytology.MethodsProspectively included patients with a Bethesda III or IV thyroid nodule underwent [18F]FDG-PET/CT imaging. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed for standardised uptake values (SUV) and SUV-ratios, including assessment of SUV cut-offs at which a malignant/borderline neoplasm was reliably ruled out (≥ 95% sensitivity). [18F]FDG-positive scans were included in radiomic analysis. After segmentation at 50% of SUVpeak, 107 radiomic features were extracted from [18F]FDG-PET and low-dose CT images. Elastic net regression classifiers were trained in a 20-times repeated random split. Dimensionality reduction was incorporated into the splits. Predictive performance of radiomics was presented as mean area under the ROC curve (AUC) across the test sets.ResultsOf 123 included patients, 84 (68%) index nodules were visually [18F]FDG-positive. The malignant/borderline rate was 27% (33/123). SUV-metrices showed AUCs ranging from 0.705 (95% CI, 0.601-0.810) to 0.729 (0.633-0.824), 0.708 (0.580-0.835) to 0.757 (0.650-0.864), and 0.533 (0.320-0.747) to 0.700 (0.502-0.898) in all (n = 123), non-Hürthle (n = 94), and Hürthle cell (n = 29) nodules, respectively. At SUVmax, SUVpeak, SUVmax-ratio, and SUVpeak-ratio cut-offs of 2.1 g/mL, 1.6 g/mL, 1.2, and 0.9, respectively, sensitivity of [18F]FDG-PET/CT was 95.8% (95% CI, 78.9-99.9%) in non-Hürthle cell nodules. In Hürthle cell nodules, cut-offs of 5.2 g/mL, 4.7 g/mL, 3.4, and 2.8, respectively, resulted in 100% sensitivity (95% CI, 66.4-100%). Radiomic analysis of 84 (68%) [18F]FDG-positive nodules showed a mean test set AUC of 0.445 (95% CI, 0.290-0.600) for the PET model.ConclusionQuantitative [18F]FDG-PET/CT assessment ruled out malignancy in indeterminate thyroid nodules. Distinctive, higher SUV cut-offs should be applied in Hürthle cell nodules to optimize rule-out ability. Radiomic analysis did not contribute to the additional differentiation of [18F]FDG-positive nodules.Trial registration numberThis trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02208544 (5 August 2014), https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02208544 .

Project description:ObjectivesBased on germline and somatic mutation profiles, pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) can be classified into different clusters. We investigated the use of [18F]FDG-PET/CT radiomics, SUVmax and biochemical profile for the identification of the genetic clusters of PPGLs.MethodsIn this single-centre cohort, 40 PPGLs (13 cluster 1, 18 cluster 2, 9 sporadic) were delineated using a 41% adaptive threshold of SUVpeak ([18F]FDG-PET) and manually (low-dose CT; ldCT). Using PyRadiomics, 211 radiomic features were extracted. Stratified 5-fold cross-validation for the identification of the genetic cluster was performed using multinomial logistic regression with dimensionality reduction incorporated per fold. Classification performances of biochemistry, SUVmax and PET(/CT) radiomic models were compared and presented as mean (multiclass) test AUCs over the five folds. Results were validated using a sham experiment, randomly shuffling the outcome labels.ResultsThe model with biochemistry only could identify the genetic cluster (multiclass AUC 0.60). The three-factor PET model had the best classification performance (multiclass AUC 0.88). A simplified model with only SUVmax performed almost similarly. Addition of ldCT features and biochemistry decreased the classification performances. All sham AUCs were approximately 0.50.ConclusionPET radiomics achieves a better identification of PPGLs compared to biochemistry, SUVmax, ldCT radiomics and combined approaches, especially for the differentiation of sporadic PPGLs. Nevertheless, a model with SUVmax alone might be preferred clinically, weighing model performances against laborious radiomic analysis. The limited added value of radiomics to the overall classification performance for PPGL should be validated in a larger external cohort.Key points• Radiomics derived from [18F]FDG-PET/CT has the potential to improve the identification of the genetic clusters of pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas. • A simplified model with SUVmax only might be preferred clinically, weighing model performances against the laborious radiomic analysis. • Cluster 1 and 2 PPGLs generally present distinctive characteristics that can be captured using [18F]FDG-PET imaging. Sporadic PPGLs appear more heterogeneous, frequently resembling cluster 2 PPGLs and occasionally resembling cluster 1 PPGLs.
