用PET/CT影像预测肺癌基因突变,多标签学习提升部分突变预测效果。
PET/CT Radiogenomic Mutation Prediction in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Using Multi-Label Learning

- 基于PET/CT影像,采用多标签学习联合预测三种肺癌基因突变。
- 联合预测KRAS和TP53时AUC分别提升至0.64和0.71。
- 效果因突变组合而异,建议针对不同突变设计专属预测策略。
肺癌是全球癌症死亡的主要原因。尽管靶向治疗改善了非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)患者的预后,但其依赖于组织活检进行突变分析,该方法具有侵入性且存在诸多局限。本研究探索基于PET/CT的放射组学方法预测表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)、肿瘤蛋白53(TP53)和克隆鼠肉瘤病毒癌基因(KRAS)突变,采用深度学习技术,并评估成对多标签学习相较于传统单基因分类的性能提升。在英国一项新型放射组学队列上进行实验,联合预测KRAS与TP53时,KRAS的AUC从0.58提升至0.64,TP53从0.69提升至0.71;而EGFR/KRAS组合中仅EGFR获益,EGFR/TP53组合无提升。结果表明,多标签学习的效果取决于具体突变组合,提示针对特定突变设计建模策略可能更优。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Lung cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer- related mortality worldwide. Although targeted therapies have improved outcomes for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), they rely on mutation profiling through tissue biopsy, an invasive procedure with several limitations. This study investigates PET/CT-based radio- genomic prediction of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), tumour protein 53 (TP53), and Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene (KRAS) mutations using deep learning. We further evaluate whether pairwise multi-label learning improves mutation prediction compared with conventional single-gene classification. To the best of our knowledge, this is among the first studies to systematically investigate multi-label learning for PET/CT radiogenomic mutation prediction in NSCLC. Experiments were conducted on a novel UK-based radiogenomics cohort. Joint pre- diction of KRAS and TP53 improved AUC from 0.58 to 0.64 for KRAS and from 0.69 to 0.71 for TP53. For the EGFR/KRAS pair, only EGFR benefited from joint learning, while no improvement was observed for the EGFR/TP53 pair. These findings demonstrate that the effectiveness of multi-label learning depends on the specific combination of gene mutations being modelled, suggesting that mutation-specific modelling strategies may be preferable for PET/CT radiogenomic prediction.
