ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Radiomic features, clinical and dosimetric factors have the potential to predict radiation-induced toxicity. The aim of this study was to develop prediction models of radiotherapy-induced toxicities in prostate cancer patients based on computed tomography (CT) radiomics, clinical and dosimetric parameters.METHODS:
In this prospective study, prostate cancer patients were included, and radiotherapy-induced urinary and gastrointestinal (GI) toxicities were assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for adverse events. For each patient, clinical and dose volume parameters were obtained. Imaging features were extracted from pre-treatment rectal and bladder wall CT scan of patients. Stacking algorithm and elastic net penalized logistic regression were used in order to feature selection and prediction, simultaneously. The models were fitted by imaging (radiomics model) and clinical/dosimetric (clinical model) features alone and in combinations (clinical-radiomics model). Goodness of fit of the models and performance of classifications were assessed using Hosmer and Lemeshow test, - 2log (likelihood) and area under curve (AUC) of the receiver operator characteristic.RESULTS:
Sixty-four prostate cancer patients were studied, and 33 and 52 patients developed ≥ grade 1 GI and urinary toxicities, respectively. In GI modeling, the AUC for clinical, radiomics and clinical-radiomics models was 0.66, 0.71 and 0.65, respectively. To predict urinary toxicity, the AUC for radiomics, clinical and clinical-radiomics models was 0.71, 0.67 and 0.77, respectively.CONCLUSIONS:
We have shown that CT imaging features could predict radiation toxicities and combination of imaging and clinical/dosimetric features may enhance the predictive performance of radiotoxicity modeling.Palavras-chave
