Abstract
Purpose: To investigate combined MRI and 18F-FDG PET for assessing breast tumor metabolism/perfusion mismatch and predicting pathological response and recurrence-free survival (RFS) in women treated for breast cancer.
Methods: Patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for locally-advanced breast cancer were imaged at three timepoints (pre, mid, and post-NAC), prior to surgery. Imaging included diffusion-weighted and dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE-) MRI and quantitative 18F-FDG PET. Tumor imaging measures included apparent diffusion coefficient, peak percent enhancement (PE), peak signal enhancement ratio (SER), functional tumor volume, and washout volume on MRI and standardized uptake value (SUVmax), glucose delivery (K1) and FDG metabolic rate (MRFDG) on PET, with percentage changes from baseline calculated at mid- and post-NAC. Associations of imaging measures with pathological response (residual cancer burden [RCB] 0/I vs. II/III) and RFS were evaluated.
Results: Thirty-five patients with stage II/III invasive breast cancer were enrolled in the prospective study (median age: 43, range: 31-66 years, RCB 0/I: N = 11/35, 31%). Baseline imaging metrics were not significantly associated with pathologic response or RFS (p > 0.05). Greater mid-treatment decreases in peak PE, along with greater post-treatment decreases in several DCE-MRI and 18F-FDG PET measures were associated with RCB 0/I after NAC (p < 0.05). Additionally, greater mid- and post-treatment decreases in DCE-MRI (peak SER, washout volume) and 18F-FDG PET (K1) were predictive of prolonged RFS. Mid-treatment decreases in metabolism/perfusion ratios (MRFDG/peak PE, MRFDG/peak SER) were associated with improved RFS.
Conclusion: Mid-treatment changes in both PET and MRI measures were predictive of RCB status and RFS following NAC. Specifically, our results indicate a complementary relationship between DCE-MRI and 18F-FDG PET metrics and potential value of metabolism/perfusion mismatch as a marker of patient outcome.
期刊介绍：
Breast Cancer Research, an international, peer-reviewed online journal, publishes original research, reviews, editorials, and reports. It features open-access research articles of exceptional interest across all areas of biology and medicine relevant to breast cancer. This includes normal mammary gland biology, with a special emphasis on the genetic, biochemical, and cellular basis of breast cancer. In addition to basic research, the journal covers preclinical, translational, and clinical studies with a biological basis, including Phase I and Phase II trials.
