New model could predict liver metastases in stomach cancer patients
NCT ID NCT06023966
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a risk scoring model to predict whether stomach cancer might spread to the liver after surgery. Researchers followed 120 patients who had their stomach cancer removed to see if the model could accurately identify those at higher risk. The goal is to help doctors personalize follow-up care and catch liver metastases early.
