Magnetic resonance imaging‐based radiogenomics analysis for predicting prognosis and gene expression profile in advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma

xlomafota13 shared this article with you from Inoreader

Abstract

Background

To establish a radiomics nomogram for survival prediction and determine if genomic data were related to radiomics signature in advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).

Methods

Radiomics features were extracted from contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images (CE-T1WI) in 316 patients. A progression-free survival (PFS) nomogram was developed and validated by the combination of the radiomics signature and clinicopathologic factors. Whole transcriptomics sequencing was performed in pretreatment tumor samples; correlation of gene expression and radiomics signature was further investigated.

Results

A 24-feature-combined radiomics signature was highly correlated with PFS; its integration with clinical predictors showed good prediction performance in the training and the validation cohort (C-index: 0.80 and 0.73). A significant correlation was observed between certain gene expression and Rad-score, especially the mRNA expression of CDKL2, PLIN5, and SPAG1.

Conclusion

As a noninvasive method, the MRI-based radiomics signature might enable the pretreatment prediction of prognosis and gene expressions profile in advanced NPC.
