Background and purpose: Baseline contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT)-derived texture analysis in locally advanced rectal cancer could help offer the best personalized treatment. The purpose of this study was to determine the value of baseline-CT texture analysis in the prediction of downstaging in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer. Patients and methods: We retrospectively included all consecutive patients treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy (CRT) followed by surgery for locally advanced rectal cancer. Tumor texture analysis was performed on the baseline pre-CRT contrast-enhanced CT examination. Based on the selected model of downstaging with a penalized logistic regression in a training set, a radiomics score (Radscore) was calculated as a linear combination of selected features. A multivariable prognostic model that included Radscore and clinical factors was created. Results: Of the 121 patients included in the study, 109 patients (90%) had T3-T4 cancer and 99 (82%) had N+ cancer. A downstaging response was observed in 96 patients (79%). In the training set (79 patients), the best model (ELASTIC-NET method) reduced the 36 texture features to a combination of 6 features. The multivariate analysis retained the Radscore (odds ratio [OR] = 13.25; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 4.06-71.64; p < 0.001) and age (OR = 1.10/1 year; 1.03-1.20; p = 0.008) as independent factors. In the test set, the area under the curve was estimated to be 0.70 (95% CI, 0.48-0.92). Conclusion: This study presents a prognostic score for downstaging, from initial computed tomography-derived texture analysis in locally advanced rectal cancer, which may lead to a more personalized treatment for each patient.
