ABSTRACT
Purpose:
The objective is to create a comprehensive model that integrates clinical, semantic, and radiomics features to forecast the 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) of individuals diagnosed with non-distant metastatic Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC).Methods:
In a retrospective analysis, we included clinical and MRI data from 313 patients diagnosed with primary NPC. Patient classification into progressive and non-progressive categories relied on the occurrence of recurrence or distant metastasis within a 5-year timeframe. Initial screening comprised clinical features and statistically significant image semantic features. Subsequently, MRI radiomics features were extracted from all patients, and optimal features were selected to formulate the Rad-Score.Combining Rad-Score, image semantic features, and clinical features to establish a combined model Evaluation of predictive efficacy was conducted using ROC curves and nomogram specific to NPC progression. Lastly, employing the optimal ROC cutoff value from the combined model, patients were dichotomized into high-risk and low-risk groups, facilitating a comparison of 10-year overall survival (OS) between the groups.Results:
The combined model showcased superior predictive performance for NPC progression, reflected by AUC values of 0.84, an accuracy rate of 81.60%, sensitivity at 0.77, and specificity at 0.81 within the training group. In the test set, the AUC value reached 0.81, with an accuracy of 74.6%, sensitivity at 0.82, and specificity at 0.66.Conclusion:
The amalgamation of Rad-Score, clinical, and imaging semantic features from multi-parameter MRI exhibited significant promise in prognosticating 5-year PFS for non-distant metastatic NPC patients. The combined model provided quantifiable data for informed and personalized diagnosis and treatment planning.
