Exhaled Breath Analysis for Lung Cancer Diagnosis Using Electronic Nose and SVM

This study examines the potential of exhaled breath analysis and Support Vector Machine (SVM) for distinguishing lung cancer from healthy individuals and various lung diseases, including COPD. The electronic nose device, Cyranose 320, was used to analyze volatile organic compounds in exhaled breath samples collected from patients. Statistical analysis with SVM showed promising results in differentiating lung cancer cases from controls, achieving high class accuracy rates. The study also identified patterns for discriminating early-stage lung cancer and various lung diseases. Overall, the research suggests that exhaled breath analysis, coupled with SVM, holds potential as a non-invasive and sensitive method for lung cancer detection.

  2. Conflict of interests • No conflict of interests • Study was sponsored by ERAF activity 2.1.1.1.0 Project Nb. 2010/0303/2DP/2.1.1.1.0/10/APIA/VIAA/043/

  3. Lung cancer mortality and diagnostic methods • Lung cancer causes 1.3 million deaths annually, more than the next three most common cancers (colon, breast and prostate)combined • 58 - 73% of patients with stage I lung cancer survive for 5 years • For distant tumors the 5-year survival rate is only 3.5 % • Available diagnostic methods - nonsensitive, expensive or invasive World Health Organization.

  6. Objective • The aim of our study was to prove the potential of exhaled breath analysis and Support Vector Machine (SVM) to discriminate patients with: 1) lung cancer from healthy controls and other lung diseases; 2) lung cancer with or without COPD from patients with only COPD and healthy controls; 3) early stage lung cancer.

  7. Methods Samplingofexhaledair • Inspiration of VOC-filtered air by tidal breathing for 5 minutes, through T-shaped two-way non-rebreathing valve (Hans Rudolph Inc., Shawnee, USA) • Inhalation to totallungcapacityandfullexhalationwithapproximateflowrate 0.25 – 0.5 L/s into a polyethyleneterephthalateplasticbag • Analysisbyelectronicnosedevice (Cyranose 320, SmithDetection, USA) within 5 minutesafterbreathsamplecollection Dragonieri S etal. J AllergyClinImmunol 2007

  8. Methods Satistical analysis Support vector machine (SVM) • Continuouspredictors: relative maximum (Rmax), area under curve (∑0-60”) and tg α0-60” for each curve of 32 sensors • Additional predictor factors: age, smoking status (smoker, non-smoker, ex-smoker), smoking history (pack-years) and ambient temperature tº C at the moment of measurement
