| Popis: | BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to prospectively evaluate dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) as an early imaging indicator of tumor histologic response to preoperative chemotherapy and as a possible prognostic factor for event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed, nonmetastatic osteosarcoma who were treated on a single, multi-institutional phase 2 trial. METHODS: Three serial DCE-MRI examinations at week 0 (before treatment), week 9, and week 12 (tumor resection) were performed in 69 patients with nonmetastatic osteosarcoma to monitor the response to preoperative chemotherapy. Four DCE-MRI kinetic parameters (the influx volume transfer constant [Ktrans], the efflux rate constant [kep], the relative extravascular extracellular space [ve], and the relative vascular plasma space [vp]) and the corresponding differences (ΔKtrans, Δkep, Δve, and Δvp) of averaged kinetic parameters between the outer and inner halves of tumors were calculated to assess their associations with tumor histologic response, EFS, and overall survival. RESULTS: The parameters Ktrans, ve, vp, and kep decreased significantly from week 0 to week 9 and week 12. The parameters Ktrans, vp, and Δkep at week 9 were significantly different between responders and nonresponders (P = .046, P = .021, and P = .008, respectively). These 3 parameters were indicative of histologic response. The parameter Δve at week 0 was a significant prognostic factor for both EFS (P = .02) and overall survival (P = .03). CONCLUSIONS: DCE-MRI was identified as a prognostic factor for EFS and overall survival before treatment on this trial and was indicative of a histologic response to neoadjuvant therapy. Further studies are needed to verify these findings with other treatment regimens and establish the potential role of DCE-MRI in the development of risk-adapted therapy for osteosarcoma.
