Beschreibung: | Objective
[18F]FDG imaging is an integral part of patient management in CAR-T-cell therapy for recurrent or therapy-refractory DLBCL. The calculation methods of predictive power of specific imaging parameters still remains elusive. With this retrospective study, we sought to evaluate the predictive power of the baseline metabolic parameters and tumor burden calculated with automated segmentation via different thresholding methods for early therapy failure and mortality risk in DLBCL patients. Materials and methods Eighteen adult patients were enrolled, who underwent CAR-T-cell therapy accompanied by at least one pretherapeutic and two posttherapeutic [18F]FDG PET scans within 30 and 90 days between December 2018 and October 2023. We performed single-click automatic segmentation within VOIs in addition to extracting the SUV parameters to calculate the MTVs and TLGs by applying thresholds based on the concepts of a fixed absolute threshold with an SUVmax > 4.0, a relative absolute threshold with an isocontour of > 40 % of the SUVmax, a background threshold involving the addition of the liver SUV value and its 2 SD values, and only the liver SUV value. Results For early therapy failure, baseline metabolic parameters such as the SUVmax, SUVpeak and SUVmean tended to have greater predictive power than did the baseline metabolic burden. However, the baseline metabolic burden was superior in the prediction of mortality risk regardless of the thresholding method used. Conclusion This study revealed that automated delineation methods of metabolic tumor burden using different thresholds do not differ in outcome substantially. Therefore, the current clinical standard with a fixed absolute threshold value of SUV > 4.0 seems to be a feasible option. | |||||||
