Description

Lian-Yu Sui and colleagues build, in a 2026 study, an imaging model to predict whether targeted drugs will work for lung cancer that has spread to the brain. Patients had non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR mutations and received EGFR-blocking drugs. The team combined clinical features with radiomics, numerical features extracted from contrast-enhanced MRI scans.

Data from 338 patients across three centers were analyzed, with features taken from inside tumors and from rings of tissue around them. Seven machine learning algorithms were compared, and random forest performed best. A combined clinical and radiomic model beat either alone in the test set, reaching an area under the curve near 0.76, with similar performance in external validation. The authors propose the model for forecasting one-year treatment benefit.
