AI predicts which cancer patients will develop liver spread

NCT ID NCT07392567

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 Results may not be published yet.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.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study is testing an artificial intelligence model that combines CT scans, tissue images, and patient data to predict whether colorectal cancer will spread to the liver after surgery. Researchers will enroll 160 patients across multiple hospitals and follow them for two years. The goal is to see if the AI can accurately identify high-risk patients, which could lead to better surveillance and earlier detection.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
multimodal deep learning prediction model
What this could lead to
If successful, this AI tool could help doctors identify patients at high risk of liver metastasis after colorectal cancer surgery, enabling more personalized follow-up care.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The model may not perform as well in real-world settings, and it does not directly improve patient outcomes.

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 population consists of adult patients (aged 18-75) with newly diagnosed, stage I-III primary colorectal cancer who are scheduled to undergo curative resection at one of the participating clinical centers. This prospective cohort will be used for the independent validation of a pre-developed multimodal deep learning model designed to predict the risk of metachronous liver metastasis. All participants will provide informed consent prior to enrollment.

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age 18-75 years, any gender. * Clinical diagnosis of primary colon or rectal adenocarcinoma (Stage I-III). Scheduled to undergo curative radical resection for colorectal cancer. * Preoperative contrast-enhanced abdominal/pelvic CT scan performed within 1 month before surgery, with acceptable image quality. * No evidence of distant metastasis (including synchronous liver metastasis) on preoperative examination. * ECOG Performance Status of 0 or 1. * Patient or their legal representative voluntarily participates and provides written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Postoperative pathological confirmation of non-primary colorectal adenocarcinoma or presence of distant metastasis. * Intraoperative determination of non-R0 resection, or performance of palliative surgery/ostomy only. * History of other malignant tumors. * Previous history of liver surgery or liver transplantation. * Death within the perioperative period (within 30 days after surgery). * Refusal to participate in follow-up, withdrawal of informed consent, or loss to follow-up.
