18F-FDG PET Radiomics of Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma

This study aims to investigate the prognostic value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) radiomics in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and its additional value to the International Prognostic Index (IPI).

About this study

Several studies have shown that 18F-FDG PET radiomics is predictive of survival in DLBCL. However, to the best of the investigator's knowledge, a multi-feature radiomic signature for prognosis assessment of DLBCL has not yet been described. Furthermore, it remains unclear whether PET-based radiomics could add more prognostic values to the IPI in DLBCL.

This study aims to develop 18F-FDG PET radiomic signature, and investigate whether the radiomic signature could improve the prognostic value of the IPI score in predicting progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in DLBCL.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • histopathologically confirmed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL);
  • Over 18 years old when diagnosed;
  • Have undergone pre-treatment 18F-FDG PET/CT;
  • Have been initially treated with the combination of rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone (R-CHOP) or R-EPOCH (etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin).

Exclusion criteria

  • Have primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma or second primary cancer;
  • Have undergone surgical resection;
  • With an incomplete follow-up.

Treatment and study plan

FDG PET radiomic feature evaluation

Other

A total of 1245 radiomic features will be calculated and extracted from baseline FDG PET scans. These features include shape features, first order features, textural features and wavelet features.

In the second part, based on the results of least absolute shrinkage and selection operator Cox regression algorithm, the most significant radiomic features will be selected to construct the radiomic signature.

Primary outcomes

  1. Overall Survival

    Time frame: From date of the initial diagnosis until the date of death from any cause, whichever came first, up to 8 years

    the period from the initial diagnosis to the death from any cause

  2. Progression-free Survival

    Time frame: From date of the initial diagnosis until the date of first documented progression, relapse or death from any cause, whichever came first, up to 8 years

    the period from the initial diagnosis to the progression, relapse or death from any cause
