ABSTRACT
The purpose of this work was to prospectively investigate sodium (23Na) MRI at 7 Tesla (T) as predictor of therapy response and survival in patients with glioblastoma (GBM). Thus, 20 GBM patients underwent 23Na MRI at 7T before, immediately after and 6 weeks after chemoradiotherapy (CRT). The median tissue sodium concentration (TSC) inside the whole tumor excluding necrosis was determined. Initial response to CRT was assessed employing the updated response assessment in neuro-oncology working group (RANO) criteria. Clinical parameters, baseline TSC and longitudinal TSC differences were compared between patients with initial progressive disease (PD) and patients with initial stable disease (SD) using Fisher's exact tests and Mann-Whitney-U-tests. Univariate proportional hazard models for progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated using clinical parameters and TSC metrics as predictor variables. The analyses demonstrated that TSC developed heterogeneously over all patients following CRT. None of the TSC metrics differed significantly between cases of initial SD and initial PD. Furthermore, TSC metrics did not yield a significant association with PFS or OS. Conversely, the initial response according to the RANO criteria could significantly predict PFS [univariate HR (95%CI) = 0.02 (0.0001-0.21), p < 0.001] and OS [univariate HR = 0.17 (0.04-0.65), p = 0.005]. In conclusion, TSC showed treatment-related changes in GBM following CRT, but did not significantly correlate with the initial response according to the RANO criteria, PFS or OS. In contrast, the initial response according to the RANO criteria was a significant predictor of PFS and OS. Future investigations need to elucidate the reasons for treatment-related changes in TSC and their clinical value for response prediction in glioblastoma patients receiving CRT.
