Abstract
The immune checkpoint blockade strategy has improved the survival rate of late-stage lung cancer patients. However, the low immune response rate limits the immunotherapy efficiency. Here, we report a ROS-responsive Fe3O4-based nanoparticle that undergoes charge reversal and disassembly in the tumor microenvironment, enhancing the uptake of Fe3O4 by tumor cells and triggering a more severe ferroptosis. In the tumor microenvironment, the nanoparticle rapidly disassembles and releases the loaded GOx and the immune-activating peptide Tuftsin under overexpressed H2O2. GOx can consume the glucose of tumor cells and generate more H2O2, promoting the disassembly of the nanoparticle and drug release, thereby enhancing the therapeutic effect of ferroptosis. Combined with Tuftsin, it can more effectively reverse the immune-suppressive microenvironment and promote the recruitment of effector T cells in tumor tissues. Ultimately, in combination with α-PD-L1, there is significant inhibition of the growth of lung metastases. Additionally, the hyperpolarized 129Xe method has been used to evaluate the Fe3O4 nanoparticle-mediated immunotherapy, where the ventilation defects in lung metastases have been significantly improved with complete lung structure and function recovered. The ferroptosis-enhanced immunotherapy combined with non-radiation evaluation methodology paves a new way for designing novel theranostic agents for cancer therapy.

Clin Radiol 2023; 78:e732-e740. [PMID: 37419772 DOI: 10.1016/j.crad.2023.06.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2022] [Revised: 02/25/2023] [Accepted: 06/01/2023] [Indexed: 07/09/2023]
Abstract
AIM To present an integrated 2-[18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (18F-FDG) positron-emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) radiomic characterisation of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) status in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). MATERIALS AND METHODS In this retrospective study, 18F-FDG PET/CT images and clinical data of 394 eligible patients were divided into training (n=275) and test sets (n=119). Next, the corresponding nodule of interest was segmented manually on the axial CT images by radiologists. After which, the spatial position matching method was used to match the image positions of CT and PET, and radiomic features of the CT and PET images were extracted. Radiomic models were built using five different machine-learning classifiers and the performance of the radiomic models were further evaluated. Finally, a radiomic signature was established to predict the PD-L1 status in patients with NSCLC using the features in the best performing radiomic model. RESULTS The radiomic model based on the PET intranodular region determined using the logistic regression classifier preformed best, yielding an area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC) of 0.813 (95% CI: 0.812, 0.821) on the test set. The clinical features did not improve the test set AUC (0.806, 95% CI: 0.801, 0.810). The final radiomic signature for PD-L1 status was consisted of three PET radiomic features. CONCLUSION This study showed that an 18F-FDG PET/CT-based radiomic signature could be used as a non-invasive biomarker to discriminate PD-L1-positive from PD-L1-negative in patients with NSCLC.

Front Oncol 2022; 12:972096. [PMID: 36033516 PMCID: PMC9416927 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.972096] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
ObjectiveTo evaluate the detection ability of 18F-FDG PET/CT for identifying high-risk lesions (high-risk adenomas and adenocarcinoma) from incidental focal colorectal 18F-FDG uptake foci combining maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) and localized colonic wall thickening (CWT). The secondary objective was to investigate the factors of missed detection of high-risk adenomas by 18F-FDG PET/CT.Patients and methodsA total of 6394 patients who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT in our hospital from August 2019 to December 2021 were retrospectively analysed, and 145 patients with incidental focal colorectal 18F-FDG uptake foci were identified. The optimal cut-off value of SUVmax for 18F-FDG PET/CT diagnosis of high-risk lesions was determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. SUVmax and localized CWT were combined to identify high-risk lesions from incidental focal colorectal 18F-FDG uptake foci. The characteristics of incidental adenomas detected and high-risk adenomas missed by 18F-FDG PET/CT were compared.ResultsOf the 6394 patients, 145 patients were found to have incidental focal colorectal FDG uptake foci (2.3%), and 44 patients underwent colonoscopy and pathological examination at the same time. In fact, 45 lesions, including 12 low-risk lesions and 33 high-risk lesions (22 high-risk adenomas, 11 adenocarcinoma), were found by colonoscopy. The area under the ROC curve of SUVmax for low-risk lesions and high-risk lesions was 0.737, and the optimal cut-off value was 6.45 (with a sensitivity of 87.9% and specificity of 58.3%). When SUVmax ≥6.45, the combination of localized CWT parameters has little influence on the sensitivity and specificity of detection; when SUVmax <6.45, the combination of localized CWT parameters can improve the specificity of detection of high-risk lesions, but the sensitivity has little change. In addition, the size of high-risk adenomas discovered incidentally by 18F-FDG PET/CT was larger than that of high-risk adenomas missed, but there was no significant difference in lesion location, pathological type or intraepithelial neoplasia between the two groups.ConclusionsThe combination of SUVmax and localized CWT parameters of 18F-FDG PET/CT helped identify high-risk lesions from incidental focal colorectal 18F-FDG uptake foci, especially for lesions with SUVmax <6.45. Lesion size may be the only factor in 18F-FDG PET/CT missing high-risk adenomas.
