  • Relationship between SUVmax in 18F-FDG PET/CT and PD-L1 expression in invasive lung adenocarcinoma

    ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between the expression of programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) and the maximal standardized uptake value (SUVmax) in 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and the correlation of clinical factors between SUVmax values and PD-L1.MethodsThe clinical data of 84 patients with invasive lung adenocarcinoma diagnosed pathologically in West China Hospital, Sichuan University from August 2016 to November 2018 were analyzed retrospectively, including 38 males and 46 females, aged 60 (32-85) years. The tumor was acinar-predominant in 37 patients, papillary in 20, lepidic in 19, solid in 5 and micropapillary in 3. Multivariate analysis of the relationship between SUVmax value and other clinicopathological features was performed by linear regression. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between PD-L1 protein expression and other pathological features.ResultsThe SUVmax of the PD-L1 expression group was significantly higher than that of the non-PD-L1 expression group in the whole invasive lung adenocarcinoma group (P=0.002) and intermediate-grade histologic subtype (P=0.016). The SUVmax cut-off value of PD-L1 expression in the whole invasive lung adenocarcinoma group and intermediate-grade histologic subtype was 5.34 (AUC: 0.732, P=0.002) and 5.34 (AUC: 0.720, P=0.017), respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that pleura involvement, vascular tumor thrombus and the increase of tumor diameter could cause the increase of the SUVmax value, while the SUVmax value decreased in the moderately differentiated tumor compared with the poorly differentiated tumor. The SUVmax cut-off value between low-grade histologic subtype and intermediate-grade histologic subtype, intermediate-grade histologic subtype and high-grade histologic subtypes was 1.54 (AUC: 0.854, P<0.001) and 5.79 (AUC: 0.889, P<0.001), respectively. Multivariate analysis of PD-L1 expression showed pleura involvement (P=0.021, OR=0.022, 95%CI 0.001 to 0.558) and moderate differentiation (opposite to poor differentiation) (P=0.004, OR=0.053, 95%CI 0.007 to 0.042) decreased the expression of PD-L1.ConclusionThe SUVmax of the PD-L1 expression group is significantly higher than that of the non-PD-L1 expression group in the whole invasive lung adenocarcinoma group and intermediate-grade histologic subtype. The level of SUVmax and the expression of PD-L1 in invasive lung adenocarcinoma are related to many clinical factors.
