• Abstract summary: We propose a ranking based censoring-aware machine learning model for answering such questions. We analyze the association of time to distant metastasis with various clinical parameters for early stage, luminal (ER+ or HER2-) breast cancer patients. Our analysis shows that the proposed risk stratification formula can discriminate between cases with high and low risk of distant metastasis.

• Abstract: Can we predict if an early stage cancer patient is at high risk of developing distant metastasis and what clinicopathological factors are associated with such a risk? In this paper, we propose a ranking based censoring-aware machine learning model for answering such questions. The proposed model is able to generate an interpretable formula for risk stratifi-cation using a minimal number of clinicopathological covariates through L1-regulrization. Using this approach, we analyze the association of time to distant metastasis (TTDM) with various clinical parameters for early stage, luminal (ER+ or HER2-) breast cancer patients who received endocrine therapy but no chemotherapy (n = 728). The TTDM risk stratification formula obtained using the proposed approach is primarily based on mitotic score, histolog-ical tumor type and lymphovascular invasion. These findings corroborate with the known role of these covariates in increased risk for distant metastasis. Our analysis shows that the proposed risk stratification formula can discriminate between cases with high and low risk of distant metastasis (p-value < 0.005) and can also rank cases based on their time to distant metastasis with a concordance-index of 0.73.

• Predicting the risk of early-stage breast cancer recurrence using H\&E-stained tissue images [5.507561997194002]
  We investigated whether deep learning algorithms can predict patients' risk of recurrence by analyzing the pathology images of their cancer histology. We obtained sensitivity of 0.857, 0.746, and 0.529 for predicting low, intermediate, and high risk, and specificity of 0.816, 0.803, and 0.972. When we checked the model learned through these studies through the class activation map, we found that it actually considered tubule formation and mitotic rate when predicting different risk groups.

The prediction of survival for the patients cohort produces precision of 0.881 with standard deviation of 0.056. The experimental result further shows that mul-ti-resolution fractal texture features perform better than conventional radiomics features for REP and survival outcomes.

  We hypothesized that using radiomics and machine learning (ML), metastases at high risk for subsequent progression could be identified during follow-up prior to the onset of significant tumor growth. The classification is realized via the maximum-relevance minimal-redundancy (MRMR) technique and support vector machines (SVM) The results indicate that risk stratification of BM based on radiomics and machine learning during post-SRT follow-up is possible with good accuracy and should be further pursued to personalize and improve post-SRT follow-up.
