NCT ID NCT06859840

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tests an AI tool called LEAF that helps doctors analyze CT scans of the abdomen to find liver cancer early. Researchers will use scans from 10,000 patients with confirmed liver tumors to train the AI to better detect cancer. The goal is to improve early screening and give patients a better chance at successful treatment.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
LEAF AI model (device)
What this could lead to
If successful, this AI tool could help doctors spot liver cancer earlier and more accurately, potentially saving lives through timely treatment.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study using past data, not a real-world test. The AI may not perform as well in different hospitals or with diverse patients.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Jul 2026

Expected to finish

Nov 2026

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
