We hypothesized that changes in the median apparent diffusion
coefficient (mADC) and volume of bone metastases (BM), quantified by whole body
(WB) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), are response biomarkers in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).
21 patients completed WB-DWI at baseline and after 12 weeks of treatment
in a sub-study within a clinical trial of olaparib in mCRPC, performed on a
1.5-T Siemens Avanto scanner. Four different segmentation techniques were explored
including axial skeleton analyses and simpler methods including 5 target
lesions.
Changes in mADC and volume of BM associated with
response to therapy. The simplified approach also showed promising results,
warranting further evaluation.
