Objective
This study aimed to explore the value of a radiomics nomogram to identify platinum resistance and predict the progression-free survival (PFS) of patients with advanced high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC).
Materials and methods
In this multicenter retrospective study, 301 patients with advanced HGSOC underwent radiomics features extraction from the whole primary tumor on contrast-enhanced T1WI and T2WI. The radiomics features were selected by the support vector machine–based recursive feature elimination method, and then the radiomics signature was generated. Furthermore, a radiomics nomogram was developed using the radiomics signature and clinical characteristics by multivariable logistic regression. The predictive performance was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic analysis. The net reclassification index (NRI), integrated discrimination improvement (IDI), and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to compare the clinical utility and benefits of different models.
Results
Five features significantly correlated with platinum resistance were selected to construct the radiomics model. The radiomics nomogram, combining radiomics signatures with three clinical characteristics (FIGO stage, CA-125, and residual tumor), had a higher area under the curve (AUC) compared with the clinical model alone (AUC: 0.799 vs 0.747), with positive NRI and IDI. The net benefit of the radiomics nomogram is typically higher than clinical-only and radiomics-only models. Kaplan–Meier survival analysis showed that the radiomics nomogram–defined high-risk groups had shorter PFS compared with the low-risk groups in patients with advanced HGSOC.
Conclusions
The radiomics nomogram can identify platinum resistance and predict PFS. It helps make the personalized management of advanced HGSOC.
Key Points
• The radiomics-based approach has the potential to identify platinum resistance and can help make the personalized management of advanced HGSOC.
• The radiomics–clinical nomogram showed improved performance compared with either of them alone for predicting platinum-resistant HGSOC.
• The proposed nomogram performed well in predicting the PFS time of patients with low-risk and high-risk HGSOC in both training and testing cohorts.
