Abstract Purpose: Adults with T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) generally benefit from treatment with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)-like regimens, but approximately 40% will relapse after such treatment. We evaluated the value of CpG methylation in predicting relapse for adults with T-LBL treated with ALL-like regimens. Experimental design: A total of 549 adults with T-LBL from 27 medical centers were included in the analysis. Using the Illumina Methylation 850K Beadchip, 44 relapse-related CpGs were identified from 49 T-LBL samples by two algorithms: least absolute shrinkage and selector operation (LASSO) and support vector machine-recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE). We built a four-CpG classifier using LASSO Cox regression based on association between the methylation level of CpGs and relapse-free survival in the training cohort (n = 160). The four-CpG classifier was validated in the internal testing cohort (n = 68) and independent validation cohort (n = 321). Results: The four-CpG-based classifier discriminated patients with T-LBL at high risk of relapse in the training cohort from those at low risk (P < 0.001). This classifier also showed good predictive value in the internal testing cohort (P < 0.001) and the independent validation cohort (P < 0.001). A nomogram incorporating five independent prognostic factors including the CpG-based classifier, lactate dehydrogenase levels, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, central nervous system involvement, and NOTCH1/FBXW7 status showed a significantly higher predictive accuracy than each single variable. Stratification into different subgroups by the nomogram helped identify the subset of patients who most benefited from more intensive chemotherapy and/or sequential hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Conclusions: Our four-CpG-based classifier could predict disease relapse in patients with T-LBL, and could be used to guide treatment decision.
今天跟大家分享的是来自于Clin Cancer Res(IF: 8.911)上的一篇作者手稿,研究者首先基于LASSO Cox回归模型和SVM-递归特征消除算法开发出一个由4个 CpG位点组成的分类器,该分类器可用于预测成人T细胞淋巴瘤(T-LBL)复发风险。另外,研究者在这4个CpG位点分类器的基础上,结合LDH水平、ECOG-PS、CNS参与和NOTCH1/FBXW7状态组成的列线图联合对患者的无复发生存进行预测,联合预测效果明显优于单独的CpG分类器和临床病理因素预测,更可能识别出受益于特定治疗计划的患者子集,为医生的治疗决策提供帮助。
今天的内容大概就是这些,无非就是开发出一个由4个 CpG位点组成的可用于预测成人T-LBL复发风险的分类器,并在该分类器的基础上,整合LDH水平等分子特征组成列线图模型,列线图分类器的预测效果更优。最后,还将列线图模型与不同方案的治疗效果进行结合,为临床医生选择最优治疗方案提供帮助。
