Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Bioinformatics
  • Medical Diagnostics

Background:

  • Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) presents varied risk levels, complicating preoperative assessment.
  • Current preoperative risk stratification for PTC remains a global challenge.
  • Multidimensional features including clinical, immune, genetic, and proteomic data are explored for improved PTC risk assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a novel Preoperative Risk Assessment Classifier for Papillary Thyroid Cancer (PRAC-PTC).
  • To integrate multidimensional features for enhanced preoperative risk stratification of PTC.
  • To assess the potential of PRAC-PTC in reducing unnecessary surgeries or overtreatment.

Main Methods:

  • A machine learning model (PRAC-PTC) was developed using 17 variables from multidimensional features.
  • Data included clinical information, immune indices, genetic features (BRAFV600E mutation), and high-throughput proteomics.
  • The model was trained on a discovery set (274 patients) and validated on retrospective (166 patients) and prospective (118 patients) test sets.

Main Results:

  • The PRAC-PTC achieved high performance with an AUC of 0.925 in the discovery set.
  • External validation showed AUCs of 0.787 (retrospective) and 0.799 (prospective).
  • Assisted by PRAC-PTC, clinician accuracy in risk prediction improved to 84.4% and 83.5% in test sets.

Conclusions:

  • PRAC-PTC effectively stratifies preoperative risk for PTC by integrating diverse data types.
  • The classifier demonstrates robust performance across multicentre retrospective and prospective cohorts.
  • PRAC-PTC holds potential to decrease unnecessary surgeries and overtreatment in PTC management.
