Objective: To evaluate the performance of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) radiomic features to predict overall survival (OS) in patients with locally advanced uterine cervical carcinoma. Methods: Longitudinal and retrospective study that evaluated 50 patients with cervical epidermoid carcinoma (clinical stage IB2 to IVA according to FIGO). Segmentation of the 18F-FDG PET/CT tumors was performed using the LIFEx software, generating the radiomic features. We used the Mann-Whitney test to select radiomic features associated with the clinical outcome (death), excluding the features highly correlated with each other with Spearman correlation. Subsequently, ROC curves and a Kaplan-Meier analysis were performed. A p-value < 0.05 were considered significant. Results: The median follow-up was 23.5 months and longer than 24 months in all surviving patients. Independent predictors for OS were found-SUVpeak with an AUC of 0.74, sensitivity of 77.8%, and specificity of 72.7% (p = 0.006); and the textural feature gray-level run-length matrix GLRLM_LRLGE, with AUC of 0.74, sensitivity of 72.2%, and specificity of 81.8% (p = 0.005). When we used the derived cut-off points from these ROC curves (12.76 for SUVpeak and 0.001 for GLRLM_LRLGE) in a Kaplan-Meier analysis, we can see two different groups (one with an overall survival probability of approximately 90% and the other with 30%). These biomarkers are independent of FIGO staging. Conclusion: By radiomic 18F-FDG PET/CT data analysis, SUVpeak and GLRLM_LRLGE textural feature presented the best performance to predict OS in patients with cervical cancer undergoing chemo-radiotherapy and brachytherapy.
