摘要
Objective To develop and validate a deep learning model based on multi-lesion and time series CT images in predicting overall survival (OS) in patients with stage IV gastric cancer (GC) receiving anti-HER2 targeted therapy. Methods A total of 207 patients were enrolled in this multicenter study, with 137 patients for retrospective training and internal validation, 33 patients for prospective validation, and 37 patients for external validation. All patients received anti-HER2 targeted therapy and underwent pre- and post-treatment CT scans (baseline and at least one follow-up). The proposed deep learning model evaluated the multiple lesions in time series CT images to predict risk probabilities. We further evaluated and validated the risk score of the nomogram combining a two-follow-up lesion-based deep learning model (LDLM-2F), tumor markers, and clinical information for predicting the benefits from treatment (Nomo-LDLM-2F). Results In the internal validation and prospective cohorts, the one-year AUCs for Nomo-LDLM-2F using the time series medical images and tumor markers were 0.894 (0.728–1.000) and 0.809 (0.561–1.000), respectively. In the external validation cohort, the one-year AUC of Nomo-LDLM-2F without tumor markers was 0.771 (0.510–1.000). Patients with a low Nomo-LDLM-2F score derived survival benefits from anti-HER2 targeted therapy significantly compared to those with a high Nomo-LDLM-2F score (all p < 0.05). Conclusion The Nomo-LDLM-2F score derived from multi-lesion and time series CT images holds promise for the effective readout of OS probability in patients with HER2-positive stage IV GC receiving anti-HER2 therapy. Critical relevance statement The deep learning model using baseline and early follow-up CT images aims to predict OS in patients with stage IV gastric cancer receiving anti-HER2 targeted therapy. This model highlights the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of stage IV GC, assisting clinicians in the early evaluation of the efficacy of anti-HER2 therapy. Key points • Multi-lesion and time series model revealed the spatiotemporal heterogeneity in anti-HER2 therapy. • The Nomo-LDLM-2F score was a valuable prognostic marker for anti-HER2 therapy. • CT-based deep learning model incorporating time-series tumor markers improved performance.
