Radiomic heterogeneity as prognostic predictor for treatment with CDK 4/6 inhibitors in hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method of determining a prognostic outlook for patients having metastatic breast cancer. The method includes receiving imaging data from an image of a patient that is receiving or that is to receive cycline dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK 4/6) inhibitor therapy for hormone receptor-positive (HR+) metastatic breast cancer. Radiomic heterogeneity features are extracted from imaging data associated with a metastasis within the imaging. A prognostic marker is determined from the radiomic heterogeneity features. The prognostic marker is indicative of a response of the patient to CDK 4/6 inhibitor therapy for HR+ metastatic breast cancer.
