What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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 is testing an artificial intelligence (AI) model to see if it can predict whether early-stage liver cancer will come back within two years after surgery. About 353 adults with early-stage liver cancer will have standard surgery and then be monitored with scans. Their medical data and images will be used to train and check the AI's predictions. The goal is to improve follow-up care by identifying high-risk patients earlier.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this AI tool could help doctors identify patients at high risk of cancer recurrence early, allowing for closer monitoring or timely treatment adjustments.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The AI model may not be accurate enough for real-world use, and results may not apply to all patients.

Who can take part

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

Who is studied

This study will enroll patients with early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (BCLC 0-A) scheduled for curative liver resection at tertiary academic medical centers in China. Participants will be consecutively recruited from hepatobiliary surgery clinics, with preoperative MRI and postoperative pathology confirmation of HCC. The population reflects real-world clinical practice, including both surgery-only patients and those receiving neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapies per physician discretion.

Inclusion Criteria: * Aged 18-75 years, regardless of gender. * BCLC stage 0-A, scheduled for curative liver resection. * Preoperative clinical diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). * Availability of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI within 1 month before surgery, with acceptable image quality. * Child-Pugh liver function score ≤7. * ECOG Performance Status (PS) 0-1. * No severe organic diseases of the heart, lungs, brain, or other vital organs. Exclusion Criteria: * Concurrent other malignancies (except cured non-melanoma skin cancer or cervical carcinoma in situ). * Postoperative pathology confirms non-HCC diagnosis. * Pregnant or lactating women. * History of organ transplantation. * Inability to comply with the study protocol or follow-up schedule.
