Multimodal Radiomics Model (18F-FAPI PET/CT + CMR) for AL Cardiac Amyloidosis Prognosis

Rövid összefoglaló (regiszter, angolul)

1. Goal of the Study: The goal of this prospective observational study is to develop and validate a novel, non-invasive method for predicting the prognosis of patients with light-chain cardiac amyloidosis (AL-CA). This method integrates advanced multi-modal imaging techniques and artificial intelligence (radiomics) to provide early and accurate assessment of treatment response and survival outcomes. 2. Main Question: Can a multi-modal radiomics model, based on the fusion of [¹⁸F]FAPI PET/CT (assessing fibroblast activation) and 3D Cardiac MRI (CMR) (assessing structural damage) imaging data, accurately predict 12-month all-cause mortality and dynamically track disease progression in patients with AL-CA receiving standard care? 3. Participants: Population: Patients diagnosed with AL-CA (confirmed by endomyocardial biopsy or extracardiac biopsy plus specific cardiac criteria: NT-proBNP >332 pg/mL, mean left ventricular wall thickness >12 mm, excluding hypertension/other causes). Setting: Single-center study at Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University. Number: 49 patients (calculated sample size accounting for dropouts). Key Criteria: Inclusion: Confirmed AL-CA diagnosis, receiving standard AL-CA treatment (chemotherapy e.g., Daratumumab-based regimen + supportive cardiac care). Exclusion: Active infection, advanced malignancy (life expectancy <12 months), severe cognitive impairment/immobility affecting imaging compliance/follow-up. 4. Study Design \& Procedures: Design: Single-center prospective cohort study. Intervention: Participants receive standard-of-care treatment for AL-CA as per guidelines (chemotherapy regimen based on Daratumumab, Bortezomib, Cyclophosphamide, Dexamethasone; tailored cardiac support including diuretics, rate control, anticoagulation if needed). Procedures: Baseline: Upon enrollment, participants undergo comprehensive assessment: [¹⁸F]FAPI PET/CT scan, 3D CMR scan, blood tests (NT-proBNP, troponin, free light chains, etc.), clinical staging (Mayo 2012), functional assessment (NYHA class), quality of life questionnaire (KCCQ). Imaging: Specialized software (Siemens True D) performs cross-platform fusion of PET/CT and 3D CMR images. Radiomics features are extracted from the fused images using dedicated software (Siemens FeAture Explorer). Follow-up: Clinical: Every 3 months (symptoms, medication adherence, adverse events, lab tests including NT-proBNP). Imaging: Repeat [¹⁸F]FAPI PET/CT and 3D CMR scans at 6 months post-baseline. Radiomics features are extracted again. Endpoints: Primary endpoint is 12-month all-cause mortality. Secondary endpoints include re-hospitalization rates and changes in NYHA class. Follow-up continues until the 12-month endpoint for all participants. Data Analysis: Machine learning (LASSO-Cox regression) is used to select key radiomics features from baseline and 6-month scans and integrate them with quantitative imaging parameters (FAPI uptake volume, SUVmax, LGE burden, ECV) and clinical data to build prognostic models predicting 12-month survival. 5. Comparison: Researchers will compare the predictive performance of the developed multi-modal radiomics model against: * Traditional clinical biomarkers: NT-proBNP levels and Mayo Clinic staging. * Standard quantitative imaging parameters alone: Such as myocardial FAPI uptake volume, SUVmax, or CMR-derived extracellular volume (ECV) measured at baseline and 6 months. The goal is to demonstrate superior accuracy in predicting 12-month all-cause mortality using the integrated radiomics approach.
