Role of radiomics in predicting immunotherapy response.

ABSTRACT: Immunotherapies have revolutionised cancer management. Despite their success, durable responses are limited to a subset of patients. Prediction of immunotherapy response in patients has proven to be difficult due to a lack of robust biomarkers. Routinely collected imaging may offer an additional information source to personalise patient treatment, with advantages over tissue-based biomarkers. Quantitative image analysis or radiomics, which involves the high-throughput extraction of imaging features, has the potential to non-invasively predict cancer histology, outcomes and prognosis. This review evaluates the value of radiomics in patients undergoing immunotherapy, with a summary provided of the performance of radiomics models in predicting immunotherapy response and toxicity, as well as i
