Prognostication of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients with Deauville score of 3 or 4 at end-of-treatment PET evaluation: a comparison of the Deauville 5-point scale and the SUVmax method. Many studies illustrated some disadvantages for that qualitative assessment, including its dependence on the amount of administered activity and body weight and high liability to inter-observer disagreement. 1left IIb cervical node, 2extensive upper abdominal involvement (periportal, peripancreatic, aortocaval, paraaortic, mesenteric nodes, heterogenous liver and As previously mentioned, the signs and symptoms of MCL are dependent on the extent of the region of the body that is affected. The blood glucose level should be less than 160mg/dl. Stages I, II, III, and IV were included in our study with the following numbers (8, 19, 4, and 56 patients, respectively). Evens A, Kostakoglu L. The role of FDG-PET in dening prognosis of . 25 Patients with Hodgkin lymphoma with a Deauville score of 1 or 2 have been shown to . Recommendations for Initial Evaluation, Staging, and Response Assessment of Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma: The Lugano Classification. Pediatr Rev 38(9):410423. The tonsils, Waldeyers ring and spleen are considered nodal tissue for staging. Of the 10 patients with an end-of-therapy Deauville score of 4 or 5, four had a diagnosis of relapse or refractory disease based on end-ofchemotherapy imaging alone. This camera integrates a PET scanner with a dual-section helical CT scanner and allows the acquisition of co-registered CT and PET images in one session. A: Radiation pneumonitis commonly occurs after radiation therapy to the lung. Scores of 1 and 2 are considered to be negative and 4 and 5 are considered to be positive. CT. A contrast enhanced CT is recommended for anatomic staging and radiation therapy planning. In our schema, a complete metabolic response (CMR) is defined as a return of FDG uptake in previously documented lesions to a level equivalent to, or less than, residual radioactivity in normal tissues within the organ in question. However, none of the semiquantitative parameters were correlated with rDS. The Korean Radiation Oncology Group (KROG) assessed the value of Deauville score (DS) on 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (FDG PET/CT) as a predictor of recurrence and survival after rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) chemotherapy in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). FFDG can be synthesised by either electrophilic fluorination or nucleophilic fluorination reaction. A score of 4 or 5 is an indicator to consider escalating therapy. The ROC curve showed two cutoff values (1.25 and 1.40): the first value (Fig. A Deauville score of 4 indicates that the lesion FDG uptake is moderately greater than the liver activity, whereas a Deauville score of 5 indicates that the lesion FDG up-take is markedly greater than the liver up-take, typically 2-3 times more intense (Figs. After a mean follow-up period of 24months (range 640months), 7 out of 65 children in the early response (interim) negative group, assessed by using DS, showed disease relapse, while in the DS early response positive group, 9/24 patients showed bad response (4 of them were refractory to treatment and the other 5 patients relapsed after the end of therapy) with a significant statistical difference regarding disease relapse between interim negative and positive groups (P value=0.002) as illustrated in Fig. Moskowitz CH. Your doctor can use this information to help diagnose, monitor or treat your condition. CAS Fluorine-18 is one of the several isotopes of fluorine that is routinely used in radiolabeling of biomolecules for PET; because of its positron emitting property and favorable half-life of 109.8 min. In patients with a Deauville score of 4, the recommended treatment options include 2 additional cycles of ABVD (total of 4) or 2 cycles of escalated BEACOPP followed by restaging with PET.

HM and MH revised the results and discussion. Qualitative parameters Any focal uptake, higher than mediastinal or hepatic reference, was interpreted as abnormal FDG uptake. Provided by the Springer Nature SharedIt content-sharing initiative. The Lugano Classification uses the same scale as the Deauville score but refers to it as a 5 point score (5PS). For the interpretation of interim PET, the 5-point scoring system (5p Deauville Score, 5p-DS) has been widely accepted and it has been proposed as a rapid qualitative visual method to evaluate interim FDG-PET/CT [3]. (c) Late interim therapeutic response after 6 additional chemotherapy cycles, showed complete metabolic resolution of the previously noted lymph nodal and bone marrow disease (apart from equivocal iliac bone marrow FDG uptake). The scale ranges from 1 to 5, where 1 is best and 5 is the worst. Background: Total body and long-axial field-of-view (LAFOV) PET/CT represent visionary innovations in imaging enabling either improved image quality, reduction in injected activity-dose or decreased acquisition time. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, or DLBCL, is a cancer that starts in white blood cells called lymphocytes. survival. The scoring just says "if there is a lymph node brighter than spleen then +2, or +1" if x is brighter than y then add 1. Part of . Most patients with Hodgkin lymphoma live long and healthy lives following successful treatment. The diffuse large B-cell lymphoma prognosis calculator estimates the overall & progression-free survival with the use of the revised IPI score for lymphoma. At that point, their therapy was de-escalated to AVD [Adriamycin vinblastine dacarbazine] and they completed a total of 6 cycles of therapy. VOI is identified and drawn, for each lesion either nodal or extra-nodal lesion automatically for generating 3D iso-count contours using a fixed threshold of 40% of the SUVmax (V40%). 2013;54 (5): 683-90. The DS interim negative group included 65 patients, while the positive group included 24 patients. Cite this article. 2022 Sep 21;11(19):5541. doi: 10.3390/jcm11195541. PET works by using a scanning device (a machine with a large hole at its center) to detect photons (subatomic particles) emitted by a radionuclide in the organ or tissue being examined. 2014;32 (27): . The DS . Privacy Manage cookies/Do not sell my data we use in the preference centre. The brighter the nodule appears on the PET scan, the more likely that it is cancer. For non-Hodgkins lymphoma, treatment depends on histological subtype as well as risk stratification. Bookshelf Li YH, Zhao YM, Jiang YL, Tang S, Chen MT, Xiao ZZ, Fan W, Hu YY, Zhang X. Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging. 17.3% versus 10.7%, P = 0.18) and 2-year GVHD free-relapse . Intravenous contrast media was given in some studies. -, J Clin Oncol. The World Health Organization (WHO) classification of non- Hodgkins lymphoma (NHL) recognizes more than 30 different subtypes of NHL. PET scans were analyzed using Deauville score (DS) and change in maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax).

Progression-free survival curves for rDS above and below the cutoff value. Our study highlighted the prognostic value of both methods and shows that the rDS could be put in consideration as a more accurate prognostic factor in those children with lymphoma. Patients with negative 5p-DS and patients with rDS<1.25 had a similar 3-year PFS (87%). In patients whose GIT showed diffuse activity, meticulous interpretation of other findings such as the presence or absence of bowel masses, accompanied nodal or extra-nodal lesions as well as history of inflammatory bowel disease is included for final suggestion. It is also known as the dose uptake ratio (DUR). However, the prognostic value of posttreatment Deauville score has not been well investigated in nodal PTCL. results are evaluated on a 5-point Deauville scale, with scores of 4 or 5 indicating uptake that is greater than the liver.13 Practically speaking, patients escalating therapy should interpret a Deauville score of 1 to 3 as negative, whereas those de-escalating therapy should consider a Deauville score of 1 to 2 as negative. The visual interpretation of this study using 5P-DS was positive (score 4) as left femoral activity was higher than that of liver, while it was negative using rDS (rDS=1.05) which is less than the cutoff point (liver max~2.5). All of them were considered to be falsely negative at BMB because evidence of true disease was confirmed during subsequent follow-up and using complementary targeted magnetic resonance imaging, and/or local biopsy. The prognostic value of PET/CT evaluation with Deauville score on the recurrence and survival in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: a multi-institutional study of KROG 17-02 Clin Exp Metastasis . California Privacy Statement, This finding suggests that . Graduated from ENSAT (national agronomic school of Toulouse) in plant sciences in 2018, I pursued a CIFRE doctorate under contract with SunAgri and INRAE in Avignon between 2019 and 2022. Moderately increased uptake compared to the liver, Lymphoma in children and young people. , Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). pneumonitis is FDG-avid and can persist for years after therapy. Adequate hematologic function defined as all of the following . This prospective study was performed during the period between January 2017 and November 2019. The PET scan also looks at the rest of the body and can identify if the cancer has spread. Five-year survival; Hodgkin: 2.8: 85.7% . Advertisement. A total of 512 patients with stage I-III DLBCL who received six cycles of R-CHOP with or without radiation therapy (RT) and obtained treatment responses according to PET-CT imagings after R-CHOP RT were included. PET/CT is routinely used also for the end-of-treatment evaluation of response to the therapy according to the Deauville score comparing the FDG uptake in the target lesion to . Particularly, there was a significant difference in PFS between patients with interim score 1-2 and those with score 3. Role of Imaging in the Staging and Response Assessment of Lymphoma: Consensus of the International Conference on Malignant Lymphomas Imaging Working Group. As previously mentioned, the signs and symptoms of MCL are dependent on the extent of the region of the body that is affected. For PET positive (score of 4-5 following Deauville Criteria) patients: Brentuximab vedotin is administered as an IV infusion over a period of 30 minutes at 1.8 mg/kg on day 1, every 3 weeks (6 cycles); For PET negative (score of 1-3 following Deauville Criteria) patients: Brentuximab vedotin is administered as an IV infusion over a period of 30 . However, it is a highly treatable disease and the symptoms can be controlled and even reduced with proper treatment and care. The efficiency of the rDS approach in identifying patients with aggressive disease for improving their treatment management was determined by applying the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis with respect to PFS. Score X: New areas of uptake unlikely to be related to lymphoma. A score of 1 to 5 based on Deauville criteria categorizes patients as PET-negative or PET-positive. [1] The term aggressive NHL refers to those subtypes that grow rapidly (proliferation index > 40%) and would often be fatal within months without appropriate therapy. The ROC analysis for rDS as a predictor of progression showed an optimal cut-point of 1.25. Frontline anti-CD19 CAR T-cell therapy with axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) was also evaluated in the phase 2 ZUMA-12 trial (NCT03761056) in high-risk patients with DLBCL (IPI 3) or high-grade B-cell lymphoma who had residual PET-positive disease (Deauville score 4-5) after 2 cycles of R-CHOP or DA-EPOCH-R.94 In 32 patients who received . Bone marrow infiltration and the number of involved extra-nodal sites in initial presentation were significantly correlated with the ratio Deauville score (0.036 and 0.002, respectively). Our study was approved by the ethical committee of Faculty of medicine, Cairo University, and the radiation safety committee of national cancer institute had given approval for study design. HY and HF collected and interpreted the data. Oncologist 8(5):438447, Article Moreover, Vercellino et al. Meticulous clinical examination, follow-up CTs neck/chest/abdomen, and PET/CT were performed to all patients during the follow-up period with at least one follow-up PET study, while subsequent follow-up PET studies were done if clinically indicated. SUVmax is calculated as SUVmax = tracer uptake in ROI / (injected activity / patient weight). Federal government websites often end in .gov or .mil. 6. Although the interpretation of interim PET (after two cycles of chemotherapy) using the qualitative visual method of 5-point Deauville score has been widely accepted, semiquantitative methods of interpretation were evaluated by many studies and showed a better prediction of prognosis. I am currently continuing at SunAgri as an R&D engineer. . Patients were instructed to fast for 46h before PET scanning. The scale was proposed in an international workshop attended by hematologists and nuclear medicine specialists in Deauville, France in 2009 4,5. Three patients were excluded from this study because one of them had tonsillar lymphoma (considered a nodal site), the second one had severe nasopharyngeal lymphoma with intracranial extension that needed urgent treatment without waiting for a baseline PET study, while the last child died after two cycles of CTH. In interim negative group, 41 patients had NHD, while the remaining 24 patients had HD. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) approach was applied to identify the optimal cut-point of rPET with respect to events, to calculate accuracy values and to define the area under the curve (AUC). The Deauville score relates tumor uptake values to those of the liver and the mediastinum. Initial pre-treatment and interim FDG PET/CT were interpreted and compared with each other by two experienced nuclear medicine physicians blinded to patients outcome with at least 8-year experience in the field of PET/CT interpretation.
