ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) Pathology Committee introduced a histologic grading system for invasive lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) in 2020. The IASLC grading system, hinging on the evaluation of predominant and high-grade histologic patterns, has proven to be practical and prognostic for invasive LUAD. However, there are still limitations in evaluating the prognosis of stage IA LUAD. Radiomics may serve as a valuable complement.PURPOSE:
To establish a model that integrates IASLC grading and radiomics, aimed at predicting the prognosis of stage IA LUAD.METHODS:
We conducted a retrospective analysis of 628 patients diagnosed with stage IA LUAD who underwent surgical resection between January 2015 and December 2018 at our institution. The patients were randomly divided into the training set (n = 439) and testing set (n = 189) at a ratio of 73. Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were taken as the end points. Radiomics features were obtained by PyRadiomics. Feature selection was performed using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO). The prediction models for OS and DFS were developed using multivariate Cox regression analysis, and the models were visualized through nomogram plots. The model's performance was evaluated using area under the curves (AUC), concordance index (C-index), calibration curves, and survival decision curve analysis (DCA).RESULTS:
In total, nine radiomics features were selected for the OS prediction model, and 15 radiomics features were selected for the DFS prediction model. Patients with high radiomics scores were associated with a worse prognosis (p < 0.001). We built separate prediction models using radiomics or IASLC alone, as well as a combined prediction model. In the prediction of OS, we observed that the combined model (C-index 0.812 ± 0.024, 3 years AUC 0.692, 5 years AUC 0.792) achieved superior predictive performance than the radiomics (C-index 0.743 ± 0.038, 3 years AUC 0.633, 5 years AUC 0.768) and IASLC grading (C-index 0.765 ± 0.042, 3 years AUC 0.658, 5 years AUC 0.743) models alone. Similar results were obtained in the models for DFS.CONCLUSION:
The combination of radiomics and IASLC pathological grading proves to be an effective approach for predicting the prognosis of stage IA LUAD. This has substantial clinical relevance in guiding treatment decisions for early-stage LUAD.
