Radiomics to Identify Patients at Risk for Developing Pneumonitis, Differentiate Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor-induced Pneumonitis From Other Lung Inflammation and Distinguish Tumour Pseudo-progression From Real Tumour Growth

The investigators will develop a radiomics signature for immune checkpoint-induced pneumonitis in 40 patients with a pulmonary event under anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1 (cases) and 40 patients without a pulmonary event under anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1 (controls).

On the basis of the case-control study of patients treated with anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1, they will further optimise the model using reinforcement machine learning. The model will then be validated in 300 prospective patients.

About this study

Preliminary analyses on a dataset showed a clear distinction in radiomics features for patients with and without pneumonitis from anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1. Prior experience of the investigators of training and validating radiomics signatures combined with their preliminary exploratory results presented here, will be used to develop a radiomics signature for immune checkpoint-induced pneumonitis in 40 patients with a pulmonary event under anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1 (cases) and 40 patients without a pulmonary event under anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1 (controls).

On the basis of the case-control study of patients treated with anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1, the investigators will be able to further optimise the model using reinforcement machine learning. The model will then be validated in 300 prospective patients.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients who receive standard anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1 treatment in routine clinical practice for first or second line stage IV non-small cell lung cancer

Exclusion criteria

  • The opposite of the above

Treatment and study plan

No interventions

Other

As this is a patient registry, there are no interventions.

Primary outcomes

  1. Cause of pneumonitis

    Time frame: 6 months

    Determining cause of the pneumonitis by medical status of the patient

Secondary outcomes

  1. Predictive accuracy of radiomics for determining the cause of pneumonitis

    Time frame: 6 months

    Three subgroups of immune checkpoint induced pneumonitis:

    • Immune checkpoint-induced pneumonitis from tumour progression
    • Immune checkpoint-induced pneumonitis from other types of pneumonitis
    • Patients with interstitial lung disease that are at risk to develop immune checkpoint-induced pneumonitis and those who are not.

    Radiomics will be used to predict the cause of pneumonitis
