NCT ID NCT07830576

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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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

Researchers are building a computer model that combines detailed features from preoperative MRI scans with routine clinical information to estimate the risk of cancer returning after surgery for colorectal liver metastases. The study includes adults who had surgery for these liver tumors and had a high-quality MRI before surgery. By linking scan patterns to outcomes like recurrence-free survival, the team aims to create a tool that helps doctors plan follow-up care and treatment. No experimental drug or procedure is tested; the study only observes and analyzes existing medical data.

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 the model works, doctors could use routine MRI scans and clinical data to estimate a patient's risk of recurrence after surgery and tailor follow-up and treatment plans.
What could go wrong
This is an observational modeling study, not a treatment trial. The model may not predict accurately in new patients or hospitals, and it cannot replace clinical judgment.

Show the full entry requirements

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 years old. Confirmed diagnosis of colorectal cancer with liver metastases (CRLM). Underwent surgical resection for colorectal liver metastases. Preoperative liver magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed with high-quality images available for 3D radiomics feature extraction. Complete baseline clinical, laboratory, and post-operative follow-up survival data. Exclusion Criteria: Patients who received local ablation only (such as radiofrequency ablation) without surgical resection. Preoperative MRI images with severe artifacts or poor quality that prevent high-throughput radiomics analysis. Concurrent history of other primary malignant neoplasms. Missing key clinical variables or lost to follow-up immediately after surgical intervention.
