Abstrakt:	Background and Purpose: To establish and validate a hybrid radiomics model to predict overall survival in cervical cancer patients receiving concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). Methods: We retrospectively collected 367 cervical cancer patients receiving chemoradiotherapy from the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University in China and divided them into a training set and a test set in a ratio of 7:3. Handcrafted and deep learning (DL)-based radiomics features were extracted from the contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT), and the two types of radiomics signatures were calculated based on the features selected using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression. A hybrid radiomics nomogram was constructed by integrating independent clinical risk factors, handcrafted radiomics signature, and DL-based radiomics signature in the training set and was validated in the test set. Results: The hybrid radiomics nomogram exhibited favorable performance in predicting overall survival, with areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUCs) for 1, 3, and 5 years in the training set of 0.833, 0.777, and 0.871, respectively, and in the test set of 0.811, 0.713, and 0.730, respectively. Furthermore, the hybrid radiomics nomogram outperformed the single clinical model, handcrafted radiomics signature, and DL-based radiomics signature in both the training (C-index: 0.793) and test sets (C-index: 0.721). The calibration curves and decision curve analysis (DCA) indicated that our hybrid nomogram had good calibration and clinical benefits. Finally, our hybrid nomogram demonstrated value in stratifying patients into high- and low-risk groups (cutoff value: 5.6). Conclusion: A high-performance hybrid radiomics model based on pre-radiotherapy CT was established, presenting strengths in risk stratification.
