8 Laboratory based Algorithm to Predict HCC: In patients with Hepatitis C and LC 50대 70대 N=11,721 At any given AFP value, low numbers of platelets and ALT and older age were associated with increased risk of HCC, whereas high levels of ALT and normal/high numbers of platelets were associated with low risk for HCC. For example, the probabilities of HCC, based only on 20 ng/ml and 120 ng/ml AFP, were 3.5% and 11.4%, respectively. However patients with the same AFP values (20 ng/ml and 120 ng/ml) who were 70y old, with ALT levels of 40 IU/ml and platelet counts of 100,000, had probabilities of developing HCC of 8.1% and 29.0%, respectively. El-Serag HB et al, Gastroenterology 2014

9 ADRESS-HCC Risk Model: Risk Prediction of HCC in Patients with Cirrhosis N=34,932 An ADRESS-HCC score of 4.67 identified those whose risk of HCC was 1.5% per year. No patient with an ADRESS-HCC score of <2.15 (80 patients) developed HCC during the follow-up period. Conclusions: The ADRESS-HCC risk model is a useful tool for predicting the 1-year risk of HCC among patients with cirrhosis. ADRESS: age, diabetes, etiology of cirrhosis, sex, and severity Flemming JA, Norah Terrault et al, Cancer 2014

10 Clinical Score System for Predict Risk of HCC: Asymptomatic anti-hcv(+) from REVEAL HCV cohort N=975 & 572 The predicted risks for HCC were estimated by sum of risk scores by the equation: P 0 was the baseline disease free probability, βi was the regression coefficient for the ith variables (Xi), Mi denoted the mean level of Xi 1. all anti-hcv seropositives (risk score <13 for low-risk, for medium-risk, 19 for high-risk group) 2. anti-hcv seropositives with detectable HCV RNA (risk score <9 for low-risk, 9 15 for medium-risk, 15 for high-risk group). Conclusions: Scoring systems for predicting HCC risk of HCVinfected patients had good validity and discrimination capability, which may triage patients for alternative management strategies. Lee MH, Chen CJ et al, Hepatology > Lee MH, Chen CJ et al, PLoS ONE 2014

11 Transient elastography based risk estimation of HCC: Predictive model for HBV related occurrence of HCC N=1,250 3-year probability of HCC occurrence The predicted risk of occurrence of HCC calibrated well with the observed risk, with a correlation coefficient of (P<0.001). Conclusions: This novel model accurately estimated the risk of HCC occurrence in patients with chronic hepatitis B Kim DY, Han KH et al, Oncotargets and Ther 2014

12 Prediction Model for 10yr Risk of HCC: In middle aged Japanese by JPHC based Prospective Study Cohort N=17,654 Those subjects with total scores of 17 or more under this system (score range: 1 to 19) had an estimated 10-year HCC risk of over 90%; those with 4 points or less had an estimated risk of less than 0.1%. Michikawa T, Manami Inoue et al, Preventive Medicine 2012

13 Data Mining Model to Identify Risk of HCC: To identify patients at high risk for HCC in CHC HCC 누적발생 N=1,003 IFN 치료로 SVR 후 HCC 누적발생 High -> Intermediate -> Low risk HCC risk group / % 5 year 10 year 누적발생 SVR (+/-) 누적발생 High and intermediate risk 11.6% 4.5 vs 9.5% 24.5% Low risk 1.0% 0.9 vs 1.8% 4.8% Conclusions: The model allows physicians to identify patients requiring HCC surveillance and those who benefit from IFN therapy to prevent HCC. Kurosaki M, Namiki Izumi et al, J Hepatol 2012

14 AATH Model for Prediction of Survival : Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI kinetic Parameters as Prognostic Biomarkers N=20 Arterial flow fraction Fractional interstitial volume The adiabatic approximation to the tissue homogenicity (AATH) model-derived PS was an effective prognostic biomarker for both 1YS and OS. Permeability-surface area product Lee SH, hiroyuki Yoshida et al, Academic Radiology 2015;22(11):

15 MESIAH: Model to Estimate Survival in Ambulatory patients with HCC N=477 & 904 Risk score 25, 75 th percentile 기준으로 Tier 1, 2, 3 로분류 Conclusions: A new model to predict survival of HCC patients based on objective parameters provides refined prognostication and supplements the BCLC classification. Yang JD, W. Ray Kim et al, Hepatology 2012

16 K-MESIAH: Korean version of Model to Estimate Survival in Ambulatory patients with HCC N=1,969 Risk probability Conclusions: A survival prediction model for Korean HCC patients was developed and validated to have a high level of performance. This K-MESIAH may be more useful in clinical practice and personalized care in a hepatitis B virus endemic area. Nam BH, Park JW et al, PLoS ONE 2015

17 Score Model for Survival after LT: A score model for predicting post-lt survival in HBV LC related HCC recipients The score model was as follows: N= (Child-Pugh score) (positive HBV DNA detection time) (number of tumor nodules) (max diameter of tumor nodules) lnafp (tumor differentiation grade). AUROC The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of the scoring model for predicting the post-lt survival was The cut-off value was 1.27, which was associated with a sensitivity of 72.5% and a specificity of 90.7%, respectively. Wang LY et al, HBPD Int 2015;14:43-49

18 MELD: Model for End-Stage Liver Disease MELD Score = 10 * ((0.957 * ln(creatinine)) + (0.378 * ln(bilirubin)) + (1.12 * ln(inr))) MELD calculator Weisner R, Ray Kim et al Gastroenterology 2003

19 Predicting Prognosis with Common Clinicopathologic Parameters: In HCC patients after curative surgery N=572 Survival Disease free Survival 6 common clinicopathologic parameters (tumor size, number of tumor nodules, tumor stage, venous infiltration status, and serum α-fetoprotein and total albumin levels) that were significantly associated with the overall HCC survival and disease-free survival (time to recurrence). Hao K, Luk JM et al, BMC Cancer 2009

20 Prediction model for LN Metastasis: A microrna-based prediction model N=192 Five LNM associated predictive factors: vascular invasion, BCLC stage, mir-145, mir-31, and mir-92a. The cutoff value 4 was used to distinguish high and low- risk groups. The model sensitivity and specificity was 69.6 and 80.2%. And the area under the curve (AUC) for the mirna-based prognostic model was The 5-year positive and negative predictive values of the model in the validation cohort were 30.3 and 95.5 %, respectively. Cox regression analysis revealed that the LNM hazard ratio of the high-risk versus low-risk groups was (95 % CI, ; P < 0.001) in the validation cohort. Conclusion, the mirna-based model is reliable and accurate for the early prediction of LNM in patients with HCC. Zhang L, Xiang ZL et al, Oncotarget 2015

21 Clinocopathological Model to Predict Bone Metastasis: N=179 A cutoff value of 9.4 best discriminated BM risk and was able to exclude future BM development with high accuracy in the validation cohort. The sensitivity and specificity were 73.7 and 78.7%, respectively. The 1- and 2-year cumulative BM rates were 10.8% and 27.4% in the high-risk group and 2.4 and 4.3% in the low-risk group. AUROC The hazard ratio for BM of the high versus low-risk group was (95% CI: ). Conclusion: The simple prediction model constructed from clinicopathological parameters is accurate in predicting BM development in HCC patients. Xiang ZL et al, J Cancer Res Clin Oncol 2011

22 Model for Preoperative Estimation of MVI: Nomogram in HBV related HCC within Milan Criteria N=1004 Patients who had a nomogram score of less than 200 or 200 or greater were considered to have low or high risks of MVI presence, respectively. Conclusions: The nomogram achieved an optimal preoperative prediction of MVI in HBV-related HCC within the Milan criteria. Using the model, the risk for an individual patient to harbor MVI can be determined, which can lead to a rational therapeutic choice Lei Z, Feng Shen et al, JAMA Surg 2015

23 Gene Expression Profiling for Prediction of Ds-free Survival N=286 & 83 Good survival vs Poor survival The estimated 5-year DFS rate for poor-survival patients (n = 41) was 24.1 %compared to 55.3 % for good survival patients (n = 42) (hazard ratio for DFS = 2.375, 95 %confidence interval ). Good survival Poor survival Stage I Stage II/III Stage I Stage II/III DFS rates 59.1% 52.4% 46.2% 12.3% Multivariate analysis in the validation set showed that DFS gene signature of tumor was an Independent predictor of shorter DFS (P = 0.018). Lim HY, Park CK et al, Ann Surg Oncol 2013

24 Predicting Risk of HCC Recurrence : Thrombocytopenia for prediction of HCC recurrence a cutoff value of /L for PLT N=4163 HR = 1.42, 95%CI: In conclusion, our meta-analysis suggested that thrombocytopenia was a valuable, inexpensive predictor for recurrence in patients with HCC. Pang Q et al, World J Gastroenterol 2015;21(25):

25 Score Model for Recurrence after Resection or LT: A 3-factor preoperative scoring model predict risk of recurrence Recurrence risk score model was as follows: HBsAg status (negative: 0; positive: 1) plasma fibrinogen level ( 3.24 mg/dl: 0; >3.24 mg/dl: 1) TTV ( cm3: 0; >107.5 cm3: 1). TTV: total tumor volume. N=238 AUROC The cut-off value was set to 1.02, and we defined the patients with the score 1.02 as a low risk group and those with the score >1.02 as a high risk group. The 3-year recurrence-free survival rate was significantly higher in the low risk group compared with that in the high risk group (67.9% vs 41.3%, P<0.001) Recurrence risk scoring model is effective in categorizing recurrence risks and in predicting recurrence-free survival of HCC before potential surgical curative treatment. Wang LY, Jiang Nan et al, HBPD Int 2015

26 Genomic Predictor Model for Recurrence of HCC: N=72 In multivariate analysis, the 65-gene risk score was the strongest risk factor for very early recurrence (1 y after surgical resection) (hazard ratio, 1.7; 95% confidence interval, ; p= 0.01). The potential significance of STAT3 activation in late recurrence was predicted by gene network analysis and validated later. We also developed and validated 4- and 20-gene predictors from the full 233-gene predictor. Conclusions: Two independently developed predictors reflected well the differences between early and late recurrence of HCC at the molecular level and provided new biomarkers for risk stratification.
