High PDL1/PDL2 gene expression correlates with worse outcome in primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: Primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBL) is an uncommon entity of aggressive B-cell lymphoma with an unusually good prognosis, except for 10-15% of chemotherapy-refractory cases. To identify earlier these higher risk patients, we performed molecular characterization of a retrospective multicenter cohort of patients treated with firstline immunochemotherapy. The traits of the patients with gene-expression profiling data (n = 120) were as follows: median age of 34 years (range, 18-67 years); female sex, 58.3%; elevated lactate dehydrogenase, 82.5%; Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score of 0 to 1, 85.7%; Ann Arbor stage I/II, 55%; International Prognostic Index score of 1 to 2, 64.4%; and median metabolic tumor volume, 290.4 cm3 (range, 15.7-1147.5 cm3). Among all 137 markers tested for correlation with survival data, only programmed death-ligand (PDL) 1 and PDL2 expression showed a prognostic impact. Overall, both PDL1 and PDL2 genes were highly expressed in 37 patients (30.8%; PDL1high/PDL2high). The baseline clinical characteristics of patients with PDL1high/PDL2high were similar to those of other patients. In univariate analysis, PDL1high/PDL2high status was associated with poor progression-free survival (PFS) (hazard ratio [HR], 4.292) and overall survival (OS; HR, 8.24). In multivariate analysis, PDL1high/PDL2high status was an independent prognostic factor of adverse outcomes (PFS: HR, 5.22; OS: HR, 10.368). We validated these results in an independent cohort of 40 patients and confirmed the significant association between PDL1high/PDL2high status and inferior PFS (HR, 6.11). High PDL1/PDL2 gene expression defines a population with strong immune privilege and poorer outcomes from standard chemotherapy who might benefit from firstline checkpoint inhibitor therapy.

Project description:ObjectivesAccurate outcome prediction is important for making informed clinical decisions in cancer treatment. In this study, we assessed the feasibility of using changes in radiomic features over time (Delta radiomics: absolute and relative) following chemotherapy, to predict relapse/progression and time to progression (TTP) of primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL) patients.Material and methodsGiven the lack of standard staging PET scans until 2011, only 31 out of 103 PMBCL patients in our retrospective study had both pre-treatment and end-of-treatment (EoT) scans. Consequently, our radiomics analysis focused on these 31 patients who underwent [18F]FDG PET-CT scans before and after R-CHOP chemotherapy. Expert manual lesion segmentation was conducted on their scans for delta radiomics analysis, along with an additional 19 EoT scans, totaling 50 segmented scans for single time point analysis. Radiomics features (on PET and CT), along with maximum and mean standardized uptake values (SUVmax and SUVmean), total metabolic tumor volume (TMTV), tumor dissemination (Dmax), total lesion glycolysis (TLG), and the area under the curve of cumulative standardized uptake value-volume histogram (AUC-CSH) were calculated. We additionally applied longitudinal analysis using radial mean intensity (RIM) changes. For prediction of relapse/progression, we utilized the individual coefficient approximation for risk estimation (ICARE) and machine learning (ML) techniques (K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), and Random Forest (RF)) including sequential feature selection (SFS) following correlation analysis for feature selection. For TTP, ICARE and CoxNet approaches were utilized. In all models, we used nested cross-validation (CV) (with 10 outer folds and 5 repetitions, along with 5 inner folds and 20 repetitions) after balancing the dataset using Synthetic Minority Oversampling TEchnique (SMOTE).ResultsTo predict relapse/progression using Delta radiomics between the baseline (staging) and EoT scans, the best performances in terms of accuracy and F1 score (F1 score is the harmonic mean of precision and recall, where precision is the ratio of true positives to the sum of true positives and false positives, and recall is the ratio of true positives to the sum of true positives and false negatives) were achieved with ICARE (accuracy = 0.81 ± 0.15, F1 = 0.77 ± 0.18), RF (accuracy = 0.89 ± 0.04, F1 = 0.87 ± 0.04), and LDA (accuracy = 0.89 ± 0.03, F1 = 0.89 ± 0.03), that are higher compared to the predictive power achieved by using only EoT radiomics features. For the second category of our analysis, TTP prediction, the best performer was CoxNet (LASSO feature selection) with c-index = 0.67 ± 0.06 when using baseline + Delta features (inclusion of both baseline and Delta features). The TTP results via Delta radiomics were comparable to the use of radiomics features extracted from EoT scans for TTP analysis (c-index = 0.68 ± 0.09) using CoxNet (with SFS). The performance of Deauville Score (DS) for TTP was c-index = 0.66 ± 0.09 for n = 50 and 0.67 ± 03 for n = 31 cases when using EoT scans with no significant differences compared to the radiomics signature from either EoT scans or baseline + Delta features (p-value> 0.05).ConclusionThis work demonstrates the potential of Delta radiomics and the importance of using EoT scans to predict progression and TTP from PMBCL [18F]FDG PET-CT scans.
