Abdom Radiol (NY) 2024:10.1007/s00261-024-04232-9. [PMID: 38489038 DOI: 10.1007/s00261-024-04232-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the value of deep learning-based multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI) nomogram in predicting the Ki-67 expression in rectal cancer. METHODS The data of 491 patients with rectal cancer from two centers were retrospectively analyzed and divided into training, internal validation, and external validation sets. They were categorized into high- and low-expression group based on postoperative pathological Ki-67 expression. Each patient's mp-MRI data were analyzed to extract and select the most relevant features of deep learning, and a deep learning model was constructed. Independent predictive risk factors were identified and incorporated into a clinical model, and the clinical and deep learning models were combined to obtain a nomogram for the prediction of Ki-67 expression. The performance characteristics of the DL-model, clinical model, and nomogram were assessed using ROCs, calibration curve, decision curve, and clinical impact curve analysis. RESULTS The strongest deep learning features were extracted and screened from mp-MRI data. Two independent predictive factors, namely Magnetic Resonance Imaging T (mrT) staging and differentiation degree, were identified through clinical feature selection. Three models were constructed: a deep learning (DL)-model, a clinical model, and a nomogram. The AUCs of clinical model in the training, internal validation, and external validation set were 0.69, 0.78, and 0.67, respectively. The AUCs of the deep model and nomogram ranged from 0.88 to 0.98. The prediction performance of the deep learning model and nomogram was significantly better than the clinical model (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The nomogram based on deep learning can help clinicians accurately and conveniently predict the expression status of Ki-67 in rectal cancer.

Acad Radiol 2024; 31:763-787. [PMID: 37925343 DOI: 10.1016/j.acra.2023.10.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2023] [Revised: 10/01/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 11/06/2023]
Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to assess the quality and diagnostic accuracy of MRI-based radiomics for predicting Ki-67 expression in breast cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic literature search was performed to find relevant studies published in different databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase up until March 10, 2023. All papers were independently evaluated for eligibility by two reviewers. Studies that matched research questions and provided sufficient data for quantitative synthesis were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis, respectively. The quality of the articles was assessed using Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies 2 (QUADAS-2) and Radiomics Quality Score (RQS) tools. The predictive value of MRI-based radiomics for Ki-67 antigen in patients with breast cancer was assessed using pooled sensitivity (SEN), specificity, and area under the curve (AUC). Meta-regression was performed to explore the cause of heterogeneity. Different covariates were used for subgroup analysis. RESULTS 31 studies were included in the systematic review; among them, 21 reported sufficient data for meta-analysis. 20 training cohorts and five validation cohorts were pooled separately. The pooled sensitivity, specificity, and AUC of MRI-based radiomics for predicting Ki-67 expression in training cohorts were 0.80 [95% CI, 0.73-0.86], 0.82 [95% CI, 0.78-0.86], and 0.88 [95%CI, 0.85-0.91], respectively. The corresponding values for validation cohorts were 0.81 [95% CI, 0.72-0.87], 0.73 [95% CI, 0.62-0.82], and 0.84 [95%CI, 0.80-0.87], respectively. Based on QUADAS-2, some risks of bias were detected for reference standard and flow and timing domains. However, the quality of the included article was acceptable. The mean RQS score of the included articles was close to 6, corresponding to 16.6% of the maximum possible score. Significant heterogeneity was observed in pooled sensitivity and specificity of training cohorts (I2 > 75%). We found that using deep learning radiomic methods, magnetic field strength (3 T vs. 1.5 T), scanner manufacturer, region of interest structure (2D vs. 3D), route of tissue sampling, Ki-67 cut-off, logistic regression for model construction, and LASSO for feature reduction as well as PyRadiomics software for feature extraction had a great impact on heterogeneity according to our joint model analysis. Diagnostic performance in studies that used deep learning-based radiomics and multiple MRI sequences (e.g., DWI+DCE) was slightly higher. In addition, radiomic features derived from DWI sequences performed better than contrast-enhanced sequences in terms of specificity and sensitivity. No publication bias was found based on Deeks' funnel plot. Sensitivity analysis showed that eliminating every study one by one does not impact overall results. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis showed that MRI-based radiomics has a good diagnostic accuracy in differentiating breast cancer patients with high Ki-67 expression from low-expressing groups. However, the sensitivity and specificity of these methods still do not surpass 90%, restricting them from being used as a supplement to current pathological assessments (e.g., biopsy or surgery) to predict Ki-67 expression accurately.

Evaluation of the international Ki67 working group cut point recommendations for early breast cancer: comparison with 21-gene assay results in a large integrated health care system. Breast Cancer Res Treat 2024; 203:281-289. [PMID: 37847456 PMCID: PMC10787679 DOI: 10.1007/s10549-023-07118-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2023] [Accepted: 08/24/2023] [Indexed: 10/18/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The International Ki67 Working Group (IKWG) has developed training for immunohistochemistry (IHC) scoring reproducibility and recommends cut points of ≤ 5% and ≥ 30% for prognosis in ER+, HER2-, stage I/II breast cancer. We examined scoring reproducibility following IKWG training and evaluated these cut points for selecting patients for further testing with the 21-gene Recurrence Score (RS) assay. METHODS We included 307 women aged 50+ years with node-negative, ER+PR+HER2- breast cancer and with available RS results. Slides from the diagnostic biopsy were stained for Ki67 and scored using digital image analysis (IA). Two IHC pathologists underwent IKWG training and visually scored slides, blinded to each other and IA readings. Interobserver reproducibility was examined using intraclass correlation (ICC) and Kappa statistics. RESULTS Depending on reader, 8.8-16.0% of our cohort had Ki67 ≤ 5% and 11.4-22.5% had scores ≥ 30%. The ICC for Ki67 scores by the two pathologists was 0.82 (95% CI 0.78-0.85); it was 0.79 (95% CI 0.74-0.83) for pathologist 1 and IA and 0.76 (95% CI 0.71-0.80) for pathologist 2 and IA. For Ki67 scores ≤ 5%, the percentages with RS < 26 were 92.6%, 91.8%, and 90.9% for pathologist 1, pathologist 2, and IA, respectively. For Ki67 scores ≥ 30%, the percentages with RS ≥ 26 were 41.5%, 51.4%, and 27.5%, respectively. CONCLUSION The IKWG's Ki67 training resulted in moderate to strong reproducibility across readers but cut points had only moderate overlap with RS cut points, especially for Ki67 ≥ 30% and RS ≥ 26; thus, their clinical utility for a 21-gene assay testing pathway remains unclear.

Wang M, Mei T, Gong Y. The quality and clinical translation of radiomics studies based on MRI for predicting Ki-67 levels in patients with breast cancer. Br J Radiol 2023; 96:20230172. [PMID: 37724784 PMCID: PMC10546437 DOI: 10.1259/bjr.20230172] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2023] [Revised: 05/13/2023] [Accepted: 08/02/2023] [Indexed: 09/21/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the methodological quality of radiomics literature predicting Ki-67 levels based on MRI in patients with breast cancer (BC) and to propose suggestions for clinical translation. METHODS In this review, we searched PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science for studies published on radiomics in patients with BC. We evaluated the methodological quality of the studies using the Radiomics Quality Score (RQS). The Cochrane Collaboration's software (RevMan 5.4), Meta-DiSc (v. 1.4) and IBM SPSS (v. 26.0) were used for all statistical analyses. RESULTS Eighteen studies met our inclusion criteria, and the average RQS was 10.17 (standard deviation [SD]: 3.54). None of these studies incorporated any of the following items: a phantom study on all scanners, cut-off analyses, prospective study, cost-effectiveness analysis, or open science and data. In the meta-analysis, it showed apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) played a better role to predict Ki-67 level than dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI in the radiomics, with the pooled area under the curve (AUC) of 0.969. CONCLUSION Ki-67 index is a common tumor biomarker with high clinical value. Radiomics is an ever-growing quantitative data-mining method helping predict tumor biomarkers from medical images. However, the quality of the reviewed studies evaluated by the RQS was not so satisfactory and there are ample opportunities for improvement. Open science and data, external validation, phantom study, publicly open radiomics database and standardization in the radiomics practice are what researchers should pay more attention to in the future. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE The RQS tool considered the radiomics used to predict the Ki-67 level was of poor quality. ADC performed better than DCE in radiomic prediction. We propose some measures to facilitate the clinical translation of radiomics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The PAM50 assay is used routinely in clinical practice to determine breast cancer prognosis and management; however, research assessing how technical variation and intratumoral heterogeneity contribute to misclassification and reproducibility of these tests is limited. METHODS We evaluated the impact of intratumoral heterogeneity on the reproducibility of results for the PAM50 assay by testing RNA extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded breast cancer blocks sampled at distinct spatial locations. Samples were classified according to intrinsic subtype (Luminal A, Luminal B, HER2-enriched, Basal-like, or Normal-like) and risk of recurrence with proliferation score (ROR-P, high, medium, or low). Intratumoral heterogeneity and technical reproducibility (replicate assays on the same RNA) were assessed as percent categorical agreement between paired intratumoral and replicate samples. Euclidean distances between samples, calculated across the PAM50 genes and the ROR-P score, were compared for concordant vs. discordant samples. RESULTS Technical replicates (N = 144) achieved 93% agreement for ROR-P group and 90% agreement on PAM50 subtype. For spatially distinct biological replicates (N = 40 intratumoral replicates), agreement was lower (81% for ROR-P and 76% for PAM50 subtype). The Euclidean distances between discordant technical replicates were bimodal, with discordant samples showing higher Euclidian distance and biologic heterogeneity. CONCLUSION The PAM50 assay achieved very high technical reproducibility for breast cancer subtyping and ROR-P, but intratumoral heterogeneity is revealed by the assay in a small proportion of cases.

Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of this research was to develop and validate an ultrasound-based radiomics nomogram for the pre-operative assessment of Ki-67 in breast cancer (BC). MATERIALS AND METHODS From December 2016 to December 2018, 515 patients with invasive ductal breast cancer who received two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound and Ki-67 examination were studied and analyzed retrospectively. The dataset was distributed at random into a training cohort (n = 360) and a test cohort (n = 155) in the ratio of 7:3. Each tumor region of interest was defined based on 2D ultrasound images and radiomics features were extracted. ANOVA, maximum correlation minimum redundancy (mRMR) algorithm, and minimum absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) were performed to pick features, and independent clinical predictors were integrated with radscore to construct the nomogram for predicting Ki-67 index by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. The performance and utility of the models were evaluated by plotting receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, decision curve analysis (DCA), and calibration curves. RESULTS In the testing cohort, the area under the receiver characteristic curve (AUC) of the nomogram was 0.770 (95% confidence interval, 0.690-0.860). In both cohorts, the nomogram outperformed both the clinical model and the radiomics model (P < .05 according to the DeLong test). The analysis of DCA proved that the model has clinical utility. CONCLUSIONS The nomogram based on 2D ultrasound images offered an approach for predicting Ki-67 in BC.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES We aimed to investigate the value of magnetic resonance image (MRI)-based radiomics in predicting Ki-67 expression of breast cancer. METHODS In this retrospective study, 159 lesions from 154 patients were included. Radiomic features were extracted from contrast-enhanced T1-weighted MRI (C+MRI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps, with open-source software. Dimension reduction was done with reliability analysis, collinearity analysis, and feature selection. Two different Ki-67 expression cut-off values (14% vs 20%) were studied as reference standard for the classifications. Input for the models were radiomic features from individual MRI sequences or their combination. Classifications were performed using a generalized linear model. RESULTS Considering Ki-67 cut-off value of 14%, training and testing AUC values were 0.785 (standard deviation [SD], 0.193) and 0.849 for ADC; 0.696 (SD, 0.150) and 0.695 for C+MRI; 0.755 (SD, 0.171) and 0.635 for the combination of both sequences, respectively. Regarding Ki-67 cut-off value of 20%, training and testing AUC values were 0.744 (SD, 0.197) and 0.617 for ADC; 0.629 (SD, 0.251) and 0.741 for C+MRI; 0.761 (SD, 0.207) and 0.618 for the combination of both sequences, respectively. CONCLUSION ADC map-based selected radiomic features coupled with generalized linear modeling might be a promising non-invasive method to determine the Ki-67 expression level of breast cancer.

Abstract
Purpose: The aims of this study were to combine CT images with Ki-67 expression to distinguish various subtypes of lung adenocarcinoma and to pre-operatively predict the Ki-67 expression level based on CT radiomic features. Methods: Data from 215 patients with 237 pathologically proven lung adenocarcinoma lesions who underwent CT and immunohistochemical Ki-67 from January 2019 to April 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The receiver operating curve (ROC) identified the Ki-67 cut-off value for differentiating subtypes of lung adenocarcinoma. A chi-square test or t-test analyzed the differences in the CT images between the negative expression group (n = 132) and the positive expression group (n = 105), and then the risk factors affecting the expression level of Ki-67 were evaluated. Patients were randomly divided into a training dataset (n = 165) and a validation dataset (n = 72) in a ratio of 7:3. A total of 1,316 quantitative radiomic features were extracted from the Analysis Kinetics (A.K.) software. Radiomic feature selection and radiomic classifier were generated through a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and logistic regression analysis model. The predictive capacity of the radiomic classifiers for the Ki-67 levels was investigated through the ROC curves in the training and testing groups. Results: The cut-off value of the Ki-67 to distinguish subtypes of lung adenocarcinoma was 5%. A comparison of clinical data and imaging features between the two groups showed that histopathological subtypes and air bronchograms could be used as risk factors to evaluate the expression of Ki-67 in lung adenocarcinoma (p = 0.005, p = 0.045, respectively). Through radiomic feature selection, eight top-class features constructed the radiomic model to pre-operatively predict the expression of Ki-67, and the area under the ROC curves of the training group and the testing group were 0.871 and 0.8, respectively. Conclusion: Ki-67 expression level with a cut-off value of 5% could be used to differentiate non-invasive lung adenocarcinomas from invasive lung adenocarcinomas. It is feasible and reliable to pre-operatively predict the expression level of Ki-67 in lung adenocarcinomas based on CT radiomic features, as a non-invasive biomarker to predict the degree of malignant invasion of lung adenocarcinoma, and to evaluate the prognosis of the tumor.

Abstract
The ability to combine multiple immunohistochemical (IHC) markers within a single tissue section facilitates the evaluation and detection of co-expressions, while saving tissue. A newly developed 5x multiplex (MPX) IHC staining of five different IHC markers (Basal cell cocktail (34βE12 + p63), p504s (SP116), ERG (EPR3864), Ki-67 (30-9), PSMA (EP192)) was applied on whole sections of n = 37 radical prostatectomies (RPE) including normal and cancerous tissue. Four different colors including brown, magenta, yellow and teal coded for different stainings, whereas magenta was used twice for nuclear Ki-67 and cytosolic / membranous PSMA. The staining of multiplex IHC was compared to single stains of ERG, PSMA and p504s. The proper staining of the basal cell cocktail and Ki-67 could be assessed by internal positive controls in the multiplex staining. The proportion of PSMA and p504s expression revealed a significant correlation between multiplex and single stains (p < 0.01) as well as a concordant staining pattern for ERG (n = 14 prostate cancers were identified ERG positive with both methods). Our proof of concept study demonstrates a robust staining pattern of all five different antibodies with this newly developed 5x MPX IHC. This approach facilitates the recognition of prostate cancer, in particular by adding PSMA in cases with low p504s expression.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES Ki-67 is one of the most important biomarkers of breast cancer traditionally measured invasively via immunohistochemistry. In this study, deep learning based radiomics models were established for preoperative prediction of Ki-67 status using multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI). MATERIALS AND METHODS Total of 328 eligible patients were retrospectively reviewed [training dataset (n = 230) and a temporal validation dataset (n = 98)]. Deep learning imaging features were extracted from T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and contrast enhanced T1-weighted imaging (T1+C). Transfer learning techniques constructed four feature sets based on the individual three MR sequences and their combination (i.e., mp-MRI). Multilayer perceptron classifiers were trained for final prediction of Ki-67 status. Mann-Whitney U test compared the predictive performance of individual models. RESULTS The area under curve (AUC) of models based on T2WI,T1+C,DWI and mp-MRI were 0.727, 0.873, 0.674, and 0.888 in the training dataset, respectively, and 0.706, 0.829, 0.643, and 0.875 in the validation dataset, respectively. The predictive performance of mp-MRI classification model in the AUC value was significantly better than that of the individual sequence model (all p< 0.01). CONCLUSION In clinical practice, a noninvasive approach to improve the performance of radiomics in preoperative prediction of Ki-67 status can be provided by extracting breast cancer specific structural and functional features from mp-MRI images obtained from conventional scanning sequences using the advanced deep learning methods. This could further personalize medicine and computer aided diagnosis.

Breast cancer tumor heterogeneity has only little impact on the estimation of the Oncotype DX® recurrence score using Magee Equations and Magee Decision Algorithm™. Hum Pathol 2020; 108:51-59. [PMID: 33245987 DOI: 10.1016/j.humpath.2020.11.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2020] [Accepted: 11/15/2020] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
Oncotype DX® assay is used to guide therapeutic decisions in early-stage invasive breast carcinoma but remains expensive. Magee Equations (MEs) and Magee Decision Algorithm (MDA) predict the Oncotype DX® recurrence score (RS) on the basis of histopathological parameters. The influence of intratumor heterogeneity on MEs and MDA remains uncertain. We compared Ki-67, estrogen and progesterone receptors, and human erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 2 (HER2) status on tissue microarray cores with the corresponding findings on the whole slides to calculate MEs scores and to decide if Oncotype DX® testing was required as per MDA in two sets of 175 and 59 tumors, without and with Oncotype DX® results, respectively. Agreements in the interpretation of Ki-67, estrogen and progesterone receptors, and HER2 status were very good between limited areas and whole-slide analyses. This resulted also in very good agreements about the results of MEs and MDA. For 7 of 175 (4%) and 3 of 59 (5.1%) cases, MEs and MDA results in different tumor areas would have changed the indication to perform or not perform Oncotype DX® assays. Oncotype DX® RSs were significantly correlated with MEs and MDA results, but among cases initially predicted to have an RS ≤25 using MDA, 3 of 34 cases (8.8%) had in fact an RS >25. Tumor heterogeneity appears to have little impact on the estimation of the Oncotype DX® RS using MEs and MDA and would have permitted to avoid half of Oncotype DX® assays in our series. Caution is nevertheless required in discarding Oncotype DX® assay in cases with ME scores >18 associated with low mitotic activity.

Abstract
AIM To determine the value of contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT)-derived radiomic features in the preoperative prediction of Ki-67 expression in adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) and to detect significant associations between radiomic features and Ki-67 expression in ACC. MATERIALS AND METHODS For this retrospective analysis, patients with histopathologically proven ACC were reviewed. Radiomic features were extracted for all patients from the preoperative contrast-enhanced abdominal CT images. Statistical analysis identified the radiomic features predicting the Ki-67 index in ACC and analysed the correlation with the Ki-67 index. RESULTS Fifty-three cases of ACC that met eligibility criteria were identified and analysed. Of the radiomic features analysed, 10 showed statistically significant differences between the high and low Ki-67 expression subgroups. Multivariate linear regression analysis yielded a predictive model showing a significant association between radiomic signature and Ki-67 expression status in ACC (R2=0.67, adjusted R2=0.462, p=0.002). Further analysis of the independent predictors showed statistically significant correlation between Ki-67 expression and shape flatness, elongation, and grey-level long run emphasis (p=0.002, 0.01, and 0.04, respectively). The area under the curve for identification of high Ki-67 expression status was 0.78 for shape flatness and 0.7 for shape elongation. CONCLUSION Radiomic features derived from preoperative contrast-enhanced CT images show encouraging results in the prediction of the Ki-67 index in patients with ACC. Morphological features, such as shape flatness and elongation, were superior to other radiomic features in the detection of high Ki-67 expression.

Abstract
PURPOSE Several clinical trials have investigated the prognostic and predictive usefulness of molecular markers. With limited predictive value, molecular markers have mainly been used to identify prognostic subgroups in which the indication for chemotherapy is doubtful and the prognosis is favorable enough for chemotherapy to be avoided. However, limited information is available about which groups of patients may benefit from additional therapy. This study aimed to describe the prognostic effects of Ki-67 in several common subgroups of patients with early breast cancer. METHODS This retrospective study analyzed a single-center cohort of 3140 patients with HER2-, hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. Five-year disease-free survival (DFS) rates were calculated for low (< 10%), intermediate (10-19%), and high (≥ 20%) Ki-67 expression levels, as assessed by immunohistochemistry, and for subgroups relative to age, body mass index, disease stage, tumor grade, and (neo-)adjuvant chemotherapy. It was also investigated whether Ki-67 had different effects on DFS in these subgroups. RESULTS The 5-year DFS rates for patients with low, intermediate, and high levels of Ki-67 expression were 0.90, 0.89, and 0.77, respectively. Ki-67 was able to further differentiate patients with an intermediate prognosis into different prognostic groups relative to common clinical parameters. Patients with stage II breast cancer had 5-year DFS rates of 0.84, 0.88, and 0.79 for low, intermediate, and high levels of Ki-67 expression. Ki-67 had different prognostic effects in subgroups defined by age and tumor grade. CONCLUSIONS Ki-67 may help identify patients in intermediate prognostic groups with an unfavorable prognosis who may benefit from further therapy.

Abstract
Background Liver metastases of breast cancer are frequent and can recur even after “complete/R0” resection in combination with systemic and hormonal treatments. The aim of this study was to analyze throughout repeat hepatectomies for liver metastases the evolution of PI3KCA gene mutational status. Methods All liver metastases nodules (n = 70) from 19 women who underwent at least 2 liver resections were reexamined. DNA extraction from archived tumoral tissue was performed and the major ‘hot spot’ mutations in the helical and catalytic domains of PI3KCA have been analyzed using Massarray platform (Agena Bioscience) based on allelic discrimination PCR amplification followed by sensitive mass spectrometry detection. Results The two major somatic hot spot PI3KCA mutations were found in 27 (38.6%) nodules corresponding to 8 of the 19 patients (42%). The frequency of women whose breast cancer liver metastases (BCLM) carries PI3KCA mutations increased from the first to the third hepatectomy. Tumors carrying PI3KCA mutations are significantly larger and more frequently observed when resections were R0 compared to patients with no PI3KCA mutation. Conclusion PI3KCA mutations are frequently observed in BCLM and persist along with the recurrence. Their identification in circulating tumor cells should become a useful biomarker in the routine practice of breast cancer management to prevent tumor recurrence and overcome the problems of intra- and inter-tumoral heterogeneity of the current biomarkers,

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES This study aims to investigate the value of a magnetic resonance imaging-based radiomics classifier for preoperatively predicting the Ki-67 status in patients with breast cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS We chronologically divided 318 patients with clinicopathologically confirmed breast cancer into a training dataset (n = 200) and a validation dataset (n = 118). Radiomics features were extracted from T2-weighted (T2W) and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted (T1+C) images of breast cancer. Radiomics feature selection and radiomics classifiers were generated using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analysis method. The correlation between the radiomics classifiers and the Ki-67 status in patients with breast cancer was explored. The predictive performances of the radiomics classifiers for the Ki-67 status were evaluated with receiver operating characteristic curves in the training dataset and validated in the validation dataset. RESULTS Through the radiomics feature selection, 16 and 14 features based on T2W and T1+C images, respectively, were selected to constitute the radiomics classifiers. The radiomics classifier based on T2W images was significantly correlated with the Ki-67 status in both the training and the validation datasets (both P < .0001). The radiomics classifier based on T1+C images was significantly correlated with the Ki-67 status in the training dataset (P < .0001) but not in the validation dataset (P = .083). The T2W image-based radiomics classifier exhibited good discrimination for Ki-67 status, with areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves of 0.762 (95% confidence interval: 0.685, 0.838) and 0.740 (95% confidence interval: 0.645, 0.836) in the training and validation datasets, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The T2W image-based radiomics classifier was a significant predictor of Ki-67 status in patients with breast cancer. Thus, it may serve as a noninvasive approach to facilitate the preoperative prediction of Ki-67 status in clinical practice.
