IPW-adjusted pre-treatment PET/CT showed higher MTV 2.5 (HR 1.09, 95% CI: 1.02–1.17, p = 0.012) and TLG (HR 1.10, 95% CI: 1.00–1.20, p = 0.048) were significantly associated with worse PFS, and post-treatment MTV 2.5 was borderline significant (HR 1.16, 95% CI: 1.00–1.35, p = 0.052).

When inverse probability modeling is performed for PFS to control for T-stage, age, BMI, and radiation treatment dose, MTV 2.5 continued to be significant on pre-treatment PET/CT and approached significance (p = 0.052) on initial post-treatment PET/CT.
