| Abstract | Introduction: Immunotherapy is a new promising treatment for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but is costly and potentially associated with considerable side effects. This study aimed to evaluate the role of machine learning (ML) models in predicting the 1-year cancer-related mortality in advanced HCC patients treated with immunotherapy. Method: 395 HCC patients who had received immunotherapy (including nivolumab, pembrolizumab or ipilimumab) between 2014 and 2019 in Hong Kong were included. The whole data sets were randomly divided into training (n = 316) and internal validation (n = 79) set. The data set, including 47 clinical variables, was used to construct six different ML models in predicting the risk of 1-year mortality. The performances of ML models were measured by the area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and their performances were compared with C-Reactive protein and Alpha Fetoprotein in ImmunoTherapY score (CRAFITY) and albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score. The ML models were further validated with an external cohort between 2020 and 2021. Results: The 1-year cancer-related mortality was 51.1%. Of the six ML models, the random forest (RF) has the highest AUC of 0.92 (95% CI 0.87-0.98), which was better than logistic regression (0.82, p = 0.01) as well as the CRAFITY (0.68, p < 0.01) and ALBI score (0.84, p = 0.04). RF had the lowest false positive (2.0%) and false negative rate (5.2%), and performed better than CRAFITY score in the external validation cohort (0.91 vs 0.66, p < 0.01). High baseline AFP, bilirubin and alkaline phosphatase were three common risk factors identified by all ML models. Conclusion: ML models could predict 1-year cancer-related mortality in HCC patients treated with immunotherapy, which may help to select patients who would benefit from this treatment. |
