Description

Pathological tissue-based dual comprehensive tumor analysis system and application
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of artificial intelligence detection and analysis based on pathological tissues. In particular, the invention relates to pathological tissue-based tumor analysis systems and applications that may be used for prognosis evaluation (e.g., surgical prognosis evaluation and/or recurrence risk evaluation, etc.) and/or selection of treatment regimens (e.g., determining whether a particular treatment regimen is appropriate for use, including surgery and/or chemotherapy, etc.) for a tumor patient.
Background
Prognosis of a disease involves the prediction of the progression of the disease. In general, the efficacy, prognosis, recovery, recurrence or extent of progression of a disease can be assessed in view of the patient's clinical manifestation, test results, imaging, etiology, pathology, and rules of illness. Disease prognosis is related to a variety of factors such as the timing of treatment of the patient, the extent of occurrence of the disease, the medical level, the combined disease, constitution, age, cognitive ability to the disease, whether to continue treatment, and the like. The major factors affecting prognosis may vary from disease to disease and from patient to patient, and thus there is a need to study risk factors affecting diseases such as tumors and to determine appropriate treatment regimens for specific diseases and for specific choices.
Taking colorectal cancer as an example, colorectal cancer is reported to have a prevalence and mortality in the 2016 united states at positions 4 and 2 of the cancer spectrum, respectively; in 2015, colorectal cancer incidence and mortality rate in China are all 5 th, but the ratio of death to new incidence (50.8%) is obviously higher than that in the United states (36.6%) (Yao Hongwei, wu Hongwei, liu Yinhua, journal of China surgery, 2017,55 (1): 24-27).
The united states joint commission on cancer (AJCC) eighth edition TNM staging system divides colorectal cancer into stages 0, I, II (including IIA, IIB, IIC), III (including IIIA, IIIB, IIIC), IV (including IVA, IVB, IVC) (see the AJCC eighth edition colorectal cancer staging system definition and description for details).
It is reported that the post-operative adjuvant chemotherapy benefit rate of patients with stage II colorectal cancer is not more than 5%, and domestic and foreign guidelines suggest that stage II patients decide on adjuvant therapy decisions based on postoperative recurrence risk. The high risk factors of the patient in the II stage at present comprise T4 (IIB and IIC stages), poor histological differentiation (grade 3/4, MSI-H is not included), vascular infiltration, nerve infiltration, intestinal obstruction, perforation of tumor parts, positive or unknown incisional margin, insufficient incisional margin safety distance and less than 12 lymph nodes to be examined. The low risk factors are MSI-H (microsatellite highly unstable) or dMMR (mismatch repair protein deletion). Previous reports also indicate that combining pathological grading with tumor differentiation does not predict well the prognosis of stage II colorectal cancer and instruct whether or not to use combination chemotherapy.
Chinese clinical society of oncology (CSCO) colorectal cancer diagnosis and treatment guide 2019.v1
3.1.1.3 postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy
At present, the clinical practice generally considers that the existing risk assessment factors are not provided with reliable evidence-based data, the judging method is relatively subjective, or the crowd who benefit is very little (the detection rate of MSI-H in colorectal cancer in stage II is only 10% -15%). Therefore, methods suitable for more patients with stage II colorectal cancer and capable of more objectively assessing prognosis risks and the benefits of chemotherapy are still being explored clinically.
There are studies showing that 12gene-RS is risk scored (recurrence score) by assessing the expression of 7 genes and 5 housekeeping genes associated with colorectal cancer recurrence risk, the risk ratio between the high risk group and the low risk group being 1.47 (95% CI,1.01-2.14; P < 0.046). J Clin Oncol 29:4611-4619.
It is reported in the literature that ColoProg, by combining DNA ploidy analysis with tumor stroma ratio analysis, can be used to evaluate prognosis of patients with stage II colorectal cancer, and that the use of ColoProg can be used to classify patients into three recurrence risks, high, medium and low, with a risk ratio hr=2.9 (95% ci 1.73-5.03) between the high and low risk groups, P <0.001.Annals of Oncology 0:1-8,2018. However, the significance of the guidance for clinical treatment remains to be improved, the total survival rate (OS) of the low-risk group for 5 years is 79%, the OS of the medium-risk group for 5 years is 72%, and the OS of the high-risk group for 5 years is 63%; the Cancer Specific Survival (CSS) of the high, medium and low risk three groups are respectively: 90%,83% and 73%. The difference between the packets remains to be increased.
Thus, there is a need for intensive research into tumors such as colorectal cancer and the like to provide more accurate prognosis evaluation for individualization and to select the optimal treatment regimen.

Detailed Description
The study was a retrospective analysis performed at the Beijing university tumor Hospital, analyzing follow-up data and chromatin structure typing DNA ploidy interstitial ratio detection data of 188 continuously collected stage II colorectal cancer patients. And collecting indexes (including age, sex, tumor position, T stage, pathological typing, pathological grading, auxiliary treatment information and MSI (microsatellite instability)) related to prognosis of the patient, and relapse information and survival information of the patient. The risk assessment is performed by adopting chromatin structure typing and DNA ploidy, and three kinds of analysis software (all available from Mei 'ao technology (Guangzhou) limited company, provided by software developer Yi' un group limited company, UK) respectively, and then the K-M survival curve analysis is performed after 3 kinds of analysis software are combined.
Tumor sampling
The pathologist selects the most representative tumor paraffin tissue, and cuts out 2 tissue slices with the thickness of 50 μm and 4 tissue slices with the thickness of 5 μm for detection of chromatin structure typing, DNA ploidy and interstitial ratio.
Preparation of cell Nuclear coating
HE staining was performed using 15 μm sections for determining the circled tumor area. The tumor region in the 50 μm section was removed according to the circled tumor region. After gradient ethanol dewaxing treatment, the cell suspension was filtered using a 60- μm nylon mesh filter after digestion with 0.5mg/ml protease VIII. After discarding the supernatant, the filtered cells were resuspended in PBS, 100. Mu.l of the suspension was pipetted for centrifugation, the smears were air-dried and then fixed with formaldehyde, followed by Fulger staining. The stained nuclear coating was scanned using a digital pathology scanner.
Chromatin structure typing assay
The analysis of the nuclear coating scan image was performed using chromatin structure typing analysis software (available from Mei-ao technology (Guangzhou) and technical support was provided by the software developer, kiku group Limited), and after classifying the scanned nuclei, the chromatin values of each patient were obtained by analyzing and calculating four dimensions (GLEM-4D) of the size of the epithelial nuclei, gray values of each pixel point, and entropy values calculated in different sampling windows, and were classified into two groups of chromatin homogeneity (CHO, > 0.044) and chromatin heterogeneity (CHE, < 0.044) according to a threshold of 0.044.
DNA ploidy detection assay
As in the first step of the analysis of chromatin structure, analysis software (available from Meinao technology (Guangzhou) limited company, which provides technical support by software developers, eu, inc. of Europe, UK) is adopted to classify the cell nuclei, and then the cumulative optical density value of the epithelial cell nuclei is calculated, and the software can be automatically classified into diploids, tetraploids, aneuploids and polyploids according to the optical density value, wherein in the study, the tetraploids, aneuploids and polyploids are classified into non-diploids.
Interstitial ratio detection analysis
Sections of 5 μm were routinely stained for H & E and scanned using an Aperio AT2 scanner. The scanned image was opened in interstitial ratio analysis software (available from the company of majora technologies, guangzhou, which provides technical support by the software developer, lulu, kingdom) and the proportion of interstitial in the tumor area was automatically calculated by the pathologist after the area was circled in the software. The low-interstitial ratio group (.ltoreq.50%) and the high-interstitial ratio group (> 50%) were classified according to a 50% threshold.
The chromatin structure typing + DNA ploidy combining algorithm is as follows:
chromatin structure typing: low risk score 0, high risk score 1
DNA ploidy: low risk score 0, high risk score 1
Low risk: two indices add total score=0 score
Risk of (1): total score of two indices added = 1 score
High risk: the two indices add up to a total score = 2.
The chromatin structure typing + matrix ratio combination algorithm is as follows:
chromatin structure typing: low risk score 0, high risk score 1
Interstitial ratio: low risk score 0, high risk score 1
Low risk: two indices add total score=0 score
Risk of (1): total score of two indices added = 1 score
High risk: the two indices add up to a total score = 2.

Conclusion: as a result of the one-factor analysis, it was found that i) a cell chromatin structure typing analysis (chromatin structure typing) and a DNA ploidy analysis (DNA ploidy), or II) a cell chromatin structure typing analysis (chromatin structure typing) and a interstitial ratio analysis (interstitial ratio) were combined, and DFS stratification was best for patients with stage II colorectal cancer, and the risk ratios of the high-risk group to the low-risk group were hr= 4.632 (95% ci 1.995-10.752, p < 0.001) and hr=4.161 (95% ci 1.635-10.595, p=0.003), respectively.
Compared with other methods, such as ColoProg, etc., the chromatin structure typing combined DNA ploidy analysis can divide patients into three groups of high, medium and low risk, and the total survival (OS) of the three groups is 90.8%,87.9% and 68.6% respectively; three groups of disease progression free survival (DFS) were 89.7%,81.8%,60.0%, respectively; the proportion of the high, medium and low-risk groups is 46.3%,35.1% and 18.6% respectively. Compared with other methods such as ColoProg, the method has better layering effect of chromatin structure typing combined with DNA ploidy analysis, and more patients (about 13%) can be classified into a low-risk group, so that the patients can avoid toxic and side effects caused by single-drug chemotherapy or even combined chemotherapy.
Compared with other methods, such as ColoProg, etc., the chromatin structure typing combined interstitial ratio analysis can divide patients into three groups of high, medium and low risk, and the total survival (OS) of the three groups is 90.0%,77.8% and 69.2% respectively; three groups of disease progression free survival (DFS) were 86.9%,73.3%,53.8%, respectively; the proportion of the high, medium and low-risk groups is 69.1%,23.9% and 6.9% respectively. Compared with other methods such as ColoProg, the chromatin structure typing combined matrix has better analysis and stratification effects, and more patients (about 35%) can be classified into a low-risk group, so that the patients can avoid toxic and side effects caused by single-drug chemotherapy or even combined chemotherapy.
