摘要:

目的 国际预后指数(the international prognostic index, IPI)对合并滤泡性淋巴瘤成分的弥漫大B细胞淋巴瘤(follicular lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma,FL/DLBCL)患者的危险区分效能有限,本研究旨在探索FL/DLBCL与DLBCL在影像学特征中的差异,并将PET/CT基线特征与临床参数融合,以优化IPI评价FL/DLBCL患者预后的效能。 方法 收集2015年1月至2022年1月在本院就诊并经病理证实的65例连续FL/DLBCL患者(随访时间2.4~113.0个月),按1∶1匹配一组同期诊断为DLBCL的患者(随访时间2.9~91.6个月),比较2组患者PET/CT影像特征及生存期的差异。应用Cox回归分析筛选FL/DLBCL患者无进展生存(progression‐free survival, PFS)期的独立预后因子,并纳入列线图。结合C指数(concordance index)和受试者操作特征(receiver operating characteristic,ROC)曲线评价模型的预测价值。结果 相较于DLBCL,FL/DLBCL患者PET/CT图像中的2个病灶之间最大距离(the largest distance between two lesions, Dmax)更大(55.07 cm比33.82 cm,P=0.031),全身病灶数量更多(7个比4个,P=0.002)。IPI评分能识别出低风险的FL/DLBCL患者(IPI评分为0~1)(P=0.010),但无法明确中低危、中高危或高危(IPI评分为2分、3分和4~5 分)的患者(P=0.743)。Cox回归分析证实,Dmax>73.08 cm(HR=3.151,95%CI为1.253~7.922,P=0.015)和IPI 2~5分(HR=3.285,95%CI为1.208~8.932,P=0.020)均是FL/DLBCL患者PFS期的独立预后因素。据此建立列线图构建新的预测模型,其C指数为0.701,新模型区分低危、中危和高危的能力,明显优于IPI(P=0.052),似然比检验、Wald 检验和得分检验均提示有较显著的统计学意义(χ2分别为13.27、12.88、15.11,P值分别为0.001、0.002、<0.001)。新模型预测FL/DLBCL患者2年PFS率的ROC曲线下面积(AUC)值为0.770,高于IPI的AUC值0.702(P<0.05);预测2年总体生存(OS)率的AUC值0.827也显著优于IPI的AUC值0.745(P<0.05)。结论 FL/DLBCL在PET/CT图像上表现出比DLBCL更播散的特征;同时,Dmax是评估FL/DLBCL患者预后的十分有前景的参数,基于Dmax(>73.08 cm)和IPI(2~5分)构建的列线图在预测FL/DLBCL生存期时表现出很好的区分效能和预测准确性。

Abstract:

Objective The international prognostic index (IPI) has limited ability to distinguish risk levels in patients with follicular lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (FL/DLBCL). This study aims to investigate the differences in imaging features between FL/DLBCL and DLBCL, and to integrate baseline PET/CT characteristics with clinical parameters to improve the prognostic efficiency of the IPI in FL/DLBCL patients. Methods A total of 65 consecutive patients with pathologically confirmed FL/DLBCL treated at our hospital between January 2015 and January 2022 were collected (follow-up duration: 2.4-113.0 months), and a 1∶ 1 matched group of patients diagnosed with DLBCL during the same period was selected (follow-up duration: 2.9-91.6 months). PET/CT features and survival differences between the two groups were compared. Cox regression analysis was used to identify independent prognostic factors for progression-free survival (PFS) in FL/DLBCL patients, which were incorporated into a nomogram. The predictive value of the model was evaluated using the concordance index (C-index) and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results Compared with DLBCL, FL/DLBCL patients had a greater maximum distance between two lesions (Dmax) on PET/CT images (55.07 cm vs.33.82 cm, P=0.031) and a greater number of total lesions throughout the body (7 vs. 4, P=0.002). The IPI score could identify FL/DLBCL patients with low risk (IPI score 0-1) (P=0.010), but failed to identify patients with intermediate-low risk, intermediate-high risk or high risk (IPI score 2, 3 and 4-5) (P=0.743). Cox regression analysis confirmed that Dmax > 73.08 cm (HR = 3.151, 95% CI 1.253-7.922, P = 0.015) and IPI score 2-5 (HR = 3.285, 95% CI 1.208-8.932, P=0.020) were independent risk factors for PFS in FL/DLBCL patients. On this basis, a nomogram was constructed to demonstrate that the new model's hazard discrimination capability (P<0.001) significantly outperformed the IPI (P=0.052),with a Cindex of 0.701. The likelihood ratio test, Wald test and score test all demonstrated highly significant statistical significance (χ2 values were 13.27, 12.88, and 15.11, respectively, and P values were 0.001, 0.002, and <0.001, respectively). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) value predicted by the new model for the 2-year PFS rate in FL/DLBCL patients was 0.770, which was higher than the AUC value of 0.702 for IPI; The AUC value of 0.827 for predicting 2-year overall survival (OS) rate was also significantly better than the AUC value of 0.745 for IPI (P<0.05). Conclusion FL/DLBCL exhibits more disseminated characteristics on PET/CT images compared to DLBCL. Additionally, Dmax is a highly promising parameter for prognostic evaluation in FL/DLBCL, and the nomogram constructed based on Dmax >73.08 cm and IPI score of 2 to 5 demonstrates excellent discriminatory ability and predictive accuracy in predicting FL/DLBCL survival outcomes.
