• Abstract summary: We predicted that coupling cancer patient blood-derived EVs to time-resolved spectroscopy and artificial intelligence could provide a robust cancer screening and follow-up tools. Our pilot study demonstrates that AI-algorithms coupled to time-resolved FCS power spectra can accurately and differentially classify the complex patient-derived EVs from different cancer samples.

• Abstract: Patient-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) that contains a complex biological cargo is a valuable source of liquid biopsy diagnostics to aid in early detection, cancer screening, and precision nanotherapeutics. In this study, we predicted that coupling cancer patient blood-derived EVs to time-resolved spectroscopy and artificial intelligence (AI) could provide a robust cancer screening and follow-up tools. Methods: Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) measurements were performed on 24 blood samples-derived EVs. Blood samples were obtained from 15 cancer patients (presenting 5 different types of cancers), and 9 healthy controls (including patients with benign lesions). The obtained FCS autocorrelation spectra were processed into power spectra using the Fast-Fourier Transform algorithm and subjected to various machine learning algorithms to distinguish cancer spectra from healthy control spectra. Results and Applications: The performance of AdaBoost Random Forest (RF) classifier, support vector machine, and multilayer perceptron, were tested on selected frequencies in the N=118 power spectra. The RF classifier exhibited a 90% classification accuracy and high sensitivity and specificity in distinguishing the FCS power spectra of cancer patients from those of healthy controls. Further, an image convolutional neural network (CNN), ResNet network, and a quantum CNN were assessed on the power spectral images as additional validation tools. All image-based CNNs exhibited a nearly equal classification performance with an accuracy of roughly 82% and reasonably high sensitivity and specificity scores. Our pilot study demonstrates that AI-algorithms coupled to time-resolved FCS power spectra can accurately and differentially classify the complex patient-derived EVs from different cancer samples of distinct tissue subtypes.
