Predictive Value of FDG PET/CT, DWI and DCE-MRI Scans for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients Receiving Chemotherapy

November 17, 2015 updated by: Samsung Medical Center

Prediction of Chemotherapy Response and Patient Prognosis in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer: Dynamic Contrast-enhanced MRI and Diffusion-weighted Imaging Versus Volume-based Parameter of 18F-FDG PET

In this prospective study, the investigators will evaluate and compare the usefulness of functional and volumetric informations obtained by 18F-FDG PET and MRI before and after the palliative chemotherapy with the aim of predicting tumor response and prognosis in patients with advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).

Conditions

Detailed Description

Study cohort will undergo PET/CT and MRI scans prior to chemotherapy and after the first chemotherapy cycle. MRI scans include DCE-MRI and DWI. The following parameters will be calculated using these values:

  1. Metabolic parameters on FDG-PET A. SUV change ratio (SCR) = SUVpost/SUVpre B. MTV change ratio (VCR) = MTVpost/pre C. TLG change ratio = SCR X VCR
  2. Perfusion parameters on DCE-MRI A. Kep B. K-trans C. ve
  3. Diffusion parameters on DWI A. Mean ADC B. fDM

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
DWI, DCE-MRI, and FDG PET as early predictor for response and prognosis
Time Frame: one year
The primary endpoint of this study is the prediction of one-year overall survival by monitoring the metabolic and functional responses of the tumor following one cycle of chemotherapy.
one year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Correlation among DWI, DCE-MRI, and FDG PET and relationship with prognosis
Time Frame: one year
Correlation among metabolic response, functional response on MRI, and standard anatomic response using the RECIST criteria
one year
Correlation among DWI, DCE-MRI, and FDG PET and relationship with prognosis
Time Frame: one year
(i) the correlation among metabolic response, functional response on MRI, and standard anatomic response using the RECIST criteria (ii) the correlation between functional response (metabolic and MR parameters) and progression-free survival (iii) comparison between the predictive values of FDG-PET and MRI for one-year overall survival.
