CT features and disease spread patterns in ROS1-rearranged lung adenocarcinomas: comparison with those of EGFR-mutant or ALK-rearranged lung adenocarcinomas
The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in CT characteristics and disease spread patterns between ROS1-rearranged adenocarcinomas and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant or anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-rearranged adenocarcinomas. Patients with stage IIIb/IV adenoc...

Sumario: | The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in CT characteristics and disease spread patterns between ROS1-rearranged adenocarcinomas and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant or anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-rearranged adenocarcinomas. Patients with stage IIIb/IV adenocarcinoma with ROS1 rearrangement, EGFR mutations, or ALK rearrangement were retrospectively identified. Two radiologists evaluated CT features and disease spread patterns. A multivariable logistic regression model was applied to determine the clinical and CT characteristics that can discriminate between ROS1-rearranged and EGFR-mutant or ALK-rearranged adenocarcinomas. A cohort of 169 patients was identified (ROS1 = 23, EGFR = 120, and ALK = 26). Compared to EGFR-mutant adenocarcinomas, ROS1-rearranged adenocarcinomas were less likely to have air-bronchogram (p = 0.011) and pleural retraction (p = 0.048) and more likely to have pleural effusion (p = 0.025), pericardial metastases (p < 0.001), intrathoracic and extrathoracic nodal metastases (p = 0.047 and 0.023, respectively), and brain metastases (p = 0.017). Following multivariable analysis, age (OR = 1.06; 95% CI: 1.01, 1.12; p = 0.024), pericardial metastases (OR = 10.50; 95% CI: 2.10, 52.60; p = 0.005), and nodal metastases (OR = 8.55; 95% CI: 1.14, 62.52; p = 0.037) were found to be more common in ROS1-rearranged tumors than in non-ROS1-rearranged tumors. ROS1-rearranged adenocarcinomas appeared as solid tumors and were associated with young age, pericardial metastases and advanced nodal metastases relative to tumors with EGFR mutations or ALK rearrangement. |
