“Delighted to present the findings of the LECOMTE-PACIFIC study at the ESMO – European Society for Medical Oncology ESMO24 Congress, aiming to use radiomics for the early detection of pneumonitis in patients with stage III nsclc treated with chemo radiation followed by immunotherapy.
In this study, we:
- analyzed radiomic features of CT scans from pts who developed symptomatic pneumonitis v not from the Ph III PACIFIC trial
- we identified 2 radiomic features (reticulation volume/TLC and Lung volume) associated with pneumonitis
- we developed a 7 variable score together with clinical variables, with encouraging discriminative power for early detection of pneumonitis (AUC 0.78)
- next step, validation in additional datasets and optimization with high res CTs and CTs pre chemoRT.”
