Study summary

The investigators will develop a radiomics signature for immune checkpoint-induced pneumonitis in 40 patients with a pulmonary event under anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1 (cases) and 40 patients without a pulmonary event under anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1 (controls).

On the basis of the case-control study of patients treated with anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1, they will further optimise the model using reinforcement machine learning. The model will then be validated in 300 prospective patients.

Read the detailed description

Preliminary analyses on a dataset showed a clear distinction in radiomics features for patients with and without pneumonitis from anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1. Prior experience of the investigators of training and validating radiomics signatures combined with their preliminary exploratory results presented here, will be used to develop a radiomics signature for immune checkpoint-induced pneumonitis in 40 patients with a pulmonary event under anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1 (cases) and 40 patients without a pulmonary event under anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1 (controls).

On the basis of the case-control study of patients treated with anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1, the investigators will be able to further optimise the model using reinforcement machine learning. The model will then be validated in 300 prospective patients.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Cause of pneumonitis

    Determining cause of the pneumonitis by medical status of the patient

    Time frame: 6 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Predictive accuracy of radiomics for determining the cause of pneumonitis

    Three subgroups of immune checkpoint induced pneumonitis: 1. Immune checkpoint-induced pneumonitis from tumour progression 2. Immune checkpoint-induced pneumonitis from other types of pneumonitis 3. Patients with interstitial lung disease that are at risk to develop immune checkpoint-induced pneumonitis and those who are not. Radiomics will be used to predict the cause of pneumonitis

    Time frame: 6 months
