Abstrakt: Purpose/objectives: Bridging radiation therapy (bRT) is increasingly being utilized prior to chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy for large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). It is unknown how the extent of cytoreduction during bRT impacts outcomes.
Materials/methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients with LBCL treated with bRT followed by CAR T-cell therapy. Metabolic tumor volume (MTV), maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max ), SUV mean , and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) were extracted from F18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET) scans acquired prior to bRT and between completion of bRT and CAR T-cell infusion. Delta radiomics based on changes of these values were then calculated. The association between delta radiomics and oncologic outcomes [progression-free survival (PFS), freedom from distant progression (FFDP), and local control (LC)] were then examined.
Results: Thirty-three sites across 23 patients with LBCL were irradiated. All metabolically active disease was treated in 10 patients. Following bRT, median overall decreases (including unirradiated sites) in MTV, SUV max , SUV mean , and TLG were 22.2 cc (63.1%), 8.9 (36.8%), 3.4 (31.1%), and 297.9 cc (75.8%), respectively. Median decreases in MTV, SUV max , SUV mean , and TLG in irradiated sites were 15.6 cc (91.1%), 17.0 (74.6%), 6.8 (55.3%), and 157.0 cc (94.6%), respectively. Median follow-up was 15.2 months. A decrease in SUV max of at least 54% was associated with improved PFS (24-month PFS: 83.3% vs. 28.1%; p = 0.037) and FFDP (24-month FFDP: 100% vs. 62.4%; p < 0.001). A decrease in MTV of at least 90% was associated with improved FFDP (24-month FFDP: 100% vs. 62.4%; p < 0.001). LC was improved in sites with decreases in SUV max of at least 71% (24-month LC: 100% vs. 72.7%; p < 0.001). Decreases of MTV by at least 90% (100% vs. 53.3%; p = 0.038) and TLG by at least 95% (100% vs. 56.3%; p = 0.067) were associated with an improved complete response rate.
Conclusion: bRT led to substantial reductions in MTV, SUV max , SUV mean , and TLG. The relative extent of these decreases correlated with improved outcomes after CAR T-cell infusion. Prospective cohorts should validate the value of interim PET following bRT for quantifying changes in disease burden and associated prognosis.
