This study determines whether a positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) 4-point scoring system may predict overall survival for anal squamous cell cancer patients. A 4-point scoring system involving imaging scans may help to predict how patients with anal squamous cell cancer respond to chemoradiation therapy.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To determine whether a PET/CT scoring system in invasive biopsy proven anal squamous cell carcinoma (SCCA) to be treated with chemoradiation with curative intent (any T any N) predicts for overall survival (OS).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine whether a PET/CT scoring system in invasive biopsy proven SCCA to be treated with definitive chemoradiation with curative intent predicts for progression free survival (PFS).

II. To determine and validate inter-reader reliability. III. To calculate C-index to evaluate the prognostic capacity of PET/CT scores for survival.

IV. To determine the association between pre-treatment PET/CT scores after treatment and OS.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:

I. To correlate level of standardized uptake value (SUV) pre and post therapy and its correlation with overall survival.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo PET/CT at baseline and at 3 months post therapy completion. Patients' medical records are received. Patients are followed up for 5 years.

4-Point Therapy Response Score With PET/CT for Anal Squamous Cell Cancer

The Role of a 4-point Therapy Response Score With PET/CT Post Definitive Chemoradiation for Anal Squamous Cell Cancer: A Prospective Study

The Kaplan-Meier method will be used. Log rank test will be used to compare OS between positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) negative and positive tumor group. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models will be fitted to evaluate the association between OS and PET/CT scores, adjusting for the effects of covariates. In addition to positive and negative tumor groups, PET/CT scores of 4 categories will also be analyzed. C-index will be calculated to evaluate the prognostic capacity of PET/CT score with survival outcomes. Additionally, the Cohen kappa coefficient will be calculated to measure inter-reader agreement.
