Methods and apparatus for predicting responsiveness to immune therapy in lung cancer. The method includes the steps of: identifying a first population of known responders and a second population of known non-responders; processing imaging data for the first and second populations using quantitative textural analysis (QTA); generating, for each member of both populations, quantitative metrics using the QTA; performing logistic regression on the quantitative metrics for both populations to yield a predictive signature expressed in the form of Y=Mx+B where x comprises mean pixel density; performing QTA on a lung cancer scan for a subsequent patient; comparing the predictive signature to one or more relevant metrics associated with the subsequent patient; and predicting responsiveness to immune therapy for the subsequent patient based on the comparison.
