- Abstract
- Background: Epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) showed potency as a non-invasive therapeutic approach in pure ground-glass opacity nodule (pGGN) lung adenocarcinoma. However, optimal methods of extracting information about EGFR mutation from pGGN lung adenocarcinoma images remain uncertain. We aimed to develop, validate, and evaluate the clinical utility of a deep learning model for predicting EGFR mutation status in lung adenocarcinoma manifesting as pGGN on computed tomography (CT). Methods: We included 185 resected pGGN lung adenocarcinomas in the primary cohort. The patients were divided into training (n = 125), validation (n = 23), and test sets (n = 37). A preoperative CT-based deep learning model with clinical factors as well as clinical and radiomics models was constructed and applied to the test set. We evaluated the clinical utility of the deep learning model by applying it to 83 GGNs that received EGFR-TKI from an independent cohort (clinical validation set), and treatment response was regarded as the reference standard. Results: The prediction efficiencies of each model were compared in terms of area under the curve (AUC). Among the 185 pGGN lung adenocarcinomas, 122 (65.9%) were EGFR-mutant and 63 (34.1%) were EGFR-wild type. The AUC of the clinical, radiomics, and deep learning with clinical models to predict EGFR mutations were 0.50, 0.64, and 0.85, respectively, for the test set. The AUC of deep learning with the clinical model in the validation set was 0.72. Conclusions: Deep learning approach of CT images combined with clinical factors can predict EGFR mutations in patients with lung adenocarcinomas manifesting as pGGN, and its clinical utility was demonstrated in a real-world sample.
