Treatment Resulting Changes in Volumes of High-¹⁸F-FDG-Uptake Adipose Tissues over Orbit and Epicardium Correlate with Treatment Response for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

A regimen of rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) is the standard treatment for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Brown adipose tissue possesses anti-cancer potential. This study aimed to explore practical biomarkers for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma by analyzing the metabolic activity of adipose tissue.

Methods

Twenty patients who received R-CHOP for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma were reviewed. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) images, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels, and body mass index (BMI) before and after treatment were collected. Regions with a high standardized uptake value (SUV) in epicardial and orbital adipose tissue were selected and analyzed by a PET/CT viewer. The initial measurements and changes in the high SUV of epicardial and orbital adipose tissues, LDH levels, and BMI of treatment responders and non-responders, and complete and partial responders, were compared.

Results

The volumes of high-SUV epicardial and orbital adipose tissues significantly increased in responders after R-CHOP (p = 0.03 and 0.002, respectively). There were significant differences between changes in the high-SUV volumes of epicardial and orbital adipose tissues (p = 0.03 and 0.001, respectively) and LDH levels (p = 0.03) between responders and non-responders. The changes in high-SUV epicardial adipose tissue volumes were greater among complete responders than partial responders (p = 0.04). Poorer treatment responses were observed in patients with lower high-SUV epicardial adipose tissue volumes and higher LDH levels after R-CHOP (p = 0.03 and 0.03, respectively).

Conclusions

The preliminary results of greater changes in high-SUV epicardial and orbital adipose tissue volumes among responders indicate that brown adipose tissue could be considered a favorable prognostic biomarker.

Project description:Knowledge of the within-subject variability of 18F-FDG PET/MRI measurements is necessary for proper interpretation of quantitative PET or MRI metrics in the context of therapeutic efficacy assessments with integrated PET/MRI scanners. The goal of this study was to determine the test-retest repeatability of these metrics on PET/MRI, with comparison to similar metrics acquired by PET/CT. Methods: This prospective study enrolled subjects with pathology-proven pelvic malignancies. Baseline imaging consisted of PET/CT immediately followed by PET/MRI, using a single 370-MBq 18F-FDG dose. Repeat imaging was performed within 7 d using an identical imaging protocol, with no oncologic therapy between sessions. PET imaging on both scanners consisted of a list-mode acquisition at a single pelvic station. The MRI consisted of 2-point Dixon imaging for attenuation correction, standard sequences for anatomic correlation, and diffusion-weighted imaging. PET data were statically reconstructed using various frame durations and minimizing uptake time differences between sessions. SUV metrics were extracted for both PET/CT and PET/MRI in each imaging session. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) metrics were extracted for both PET/MRI sessions. Results: The study cohort consisted of 14 subjects (13 female, 1 male) with various pelvic cancers (11 cervical, 2 rectal, 1 endometrial). For SUVmax, the within-subject coefficient of variation (wCV) appeared higher for PET/CT (8.5%-12.8%) than PET/MRI (6.6%-8.7%) across all PET reconstructions, though with no significant repeatability differences (all P values ≥ 0.08) between modalities. For lean body mass-adjusted SUVpeak, the wCVs appeared similar for PET/CT (9.9%-11.5%) and PET/MRI (9.2%-11.3%) across all PET reconstructions, again with no significant repeatability differences (all P values ≥ 0.14) between modalities. For PET/MRI, the wCV for ADCmedian of 3.5% appeared lower than the wCVs for SUVmax (6.6%-8.7%) and SULpeak (9.2%-11.3%), though without significant repeatability differences (all P values ≥ 0.23). Conclusion: For solid tumors of the pelvis, the repeatability of the evaluated SUV and ADC metrics on 18F-FDG PET/MRI is both acceptably high and similar to previously published values for 18F-FDG PET/CT and MRI, supporting the use of 18F-FDG PET/MRI for quantitative oncologic treatment response assessments.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough rates of severe HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders have declined in the post-antiretroviral treatment (ART) era, subtle deficits persist, possibly exacerbated by treatment non-adherence. The actual effects of ART interruption/initiation on brain glucose metabolism as a reflection of viral replication and neuroinflammation remain unclear. Our study investigates how treatment initiation and interruption alter brain glucose metabolism in SIV-infected macaques, using 18F-FDG PET in correlation with plasma and CSF viral loads (VL) and cytokine levels.MethodsSIV-infected macaques (n = 7) underwent ART initiation only, ART interruption only, or both. Five uninfected animals served as controls. 18F-FDG PET imaging was performed at baseline and 1, 3, and 6 months after treatment modification. Mean and maximum standardized uptake values (SUV) for the whole-brain and subregions were calculated. Plasma and CSF VL and cytokine levels were measured. Paired t tests evaluated acute changes in whole-brain SUV from baseline to 1 month, while mixed-effect linear regression models evaluated changes over multiple timepoints and correlated SUV values with disease markers.ResultsART interruption was associated with increased SUVmean and SUVmax acutely, after 1 month (SUVmean 95% CI [0.044-0.786 g/ml], p = 0.037; SUVmax 95% CI [0.122-3.167 g/ml], p = 0.041). The correlation between SUV and time, however, was not significant when evaluated across all timepoints. Increased SUVmean and SUVmax correlated with decreased CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell counts and increased plasma VL. SUVmax was positively associated with increases in CSF VL, and there were borderline positive associations between SUVmax and IL-2, and between SUVmean and IL-15. The treatment initiation group showed no associations between imaging and disease biomarkers despite viral suppression, reduced cytokine levels, and increased CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell counts.ConclusionsART interruption is associated with increased brain glucose metabolism within 1 month of treatment cessation, which, in concert with increased levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the CSF, may reflect neuroinflammation in the setting of viral rebound. Although we cannot assert neurologic damage in association with cerebral hypermetabolism, it is a concerning outcome of ART non-adherence. Treatment initiation, meanwhile, did not result in significant changes in brain metabolism. HIV-induced neuroinflammation may require a longer period to abate than our follow-up period allowed.

Project description:In a previous preliminary study, radiomic features from the largest and the hottest lesion in baseline 18F-FDG PET/CT (bPET/CT) of classical Hodgkin's Lymphoma (cHL) predicted early response-to-treatment and prognosis. Aim of this large retrospectively-validated study is to evaluate the predictive role of two-lesions radiomics in comparison with other clinical and conventional PET/CT models. cHL patients with bPET/CT between 2010 and 2020 were retrospectively included and randomized into training-validation sets. Target lesions were: Lesion_A, with largest axial diameter (Dmax); Lesion_B, with highest SUVmax. Total-metabolic-tumor-volume (TMTV) was calculated and 212 radiomic features were extracted. PET/CT features were harmonized using ComBat across two scanners. Outcomes were progression-free-survival (PFS) and Deauville Score at interim PET/CT (DS). For each outcome, three predictive models and their combinations were trained and validated: - radiomic model "R"; - conventional PET/CT model "P"; - clinical model "C". 197 patients were included (training = 118; validation = 79): 38/197 (19%) patients had adverse events and 42/193 (22%) had DS ≥ 4. In the training phase, only one radiomic feature was selected for PFS prediction in model "R" (Lesion_B F_cm.corr, C-index 66.9%). Best "C" model combined stage and IPS (C-index 74.8%), while optimal "P" model combined TMTV and Dmax (C-index 63.3%). After internal validation, "C", "C + R", "R + P" and "C + R + P" significantly predicted PFS. The best validated model was "C + R" (C-index 66.3%). No model was validated for DS prediction. In this large retrospectively-validated study, a combination of baseline 18F-FDG PET/CT two-lesions radiomics and other conventional models showed an added prognostic power in patients with cHL. As single models, conventional clinical parameters maintain their prognostic power, while radiomics or conventional PET/CT alone seem to be sub-optimal to predict survival.

Project description:BackgroundOsteosarcoma is the most common malignant bone tumor in children and young adults that produces aberrant osteoid. The aim of this study was to assess the utility of 2-deoxy-2-[18F-] fluoro-D-glucose ([18F] FDG) and sodium [18F] Fluoride (Na [18F] F) PET scans in orthotopic murine models of osteosarcoma to describe the metabolic pattern of the tumors, to detect and diagnose tumors and to evaluate the efficacy of a new treatment based in oncolytic adenoviruses.MethodsOrthotopic osteosarcoma murine models were created by the injection of 143B and 531MII cell lines. [18F]FDG and Na [18F] F PET scans were performed 30 days (143B) and 90 days (531MII) post-injection. The antitumor effect of two doses (107 and 108 pfu) of the oncolytic adenovirus VCN-01 was evaluated in 531 MII model by [18F] FDG PET studies. [18F] FDG uptake was quantified by SUVmax and Total Lesion Glycolysis (TLG) indexes. For Na [18F] F, the ratio tumor SUVmax/hip SUVmax was calculated. PET findings were confirmed by histopathological techniques.ResultsThe metabolic pattern of tumors was different between both orthotopic models. All tumors showed [18F] FDG uptake, with a sensitivity and specificity of 100%. The [18F] FDG uptake was significantly higher for the 143B model (p < 0.001). Sensitivity for Na [18F] F was around 70% in both models, with a specificity of 100%. 531MII tumors showed a heterogeneous Na [18F] F uptake, significantly higher than 143B tumors (p < 0.01). Importantly, [18F] FDG and Na [18F] F uptake corresponded to highly cellular or osteoid-rich tumors in the histopathological analysis, respectively. [18F] FDG data confirmed that the oncolytic treatment of 531MII tumors produced a significant reduction in growth even with the 107 pfu dose.ConclusionsPET studies demonstrated that the different osteosarcoma xenograft models developed tumors with diverse metabolic patterns that can be described by multitracer PET studies. Since not all tumors produced abundant osteoid, [18F] FDG demonstrated a better sensitivity for tumor detection and was able to quantitatively monitor in vivo response to the oncolytic adenovirus VCN-01.
