Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal participants are junior doctors (oncologists, surgeons, radiation oncologists, radiologists, or pathologists) aged about 25–33 with 3–5 years of clinical experience who can commit at least 10 hours and provide informed consent.

Probably not a fit

Patients whose care involves highly specialized or procedural decisions, or whose cases were already part of the study’s initial 20 cases, may not see direct benefit from this report-writing intervention.

What this trial studies

This open-label randomized controlled study randomizes 40 junior clinicians to either use a selected large language model (LLM) to assist in writing multidisciplinary team (MDT) reports or to write reports without LLM support. The project builds on benchmark testing that identified high-performing LLMs for clinical tasks and prospectively collects diagnostic and treatment information from 20 patient cases across five cancer types. Primary outcomes include accuracy of MDT diagnostic and treatment recommendations and time spent producing MDT reports. The study is conducted at a single center and focuses on real-world workflow integration for oncologists, surgeons, radiation oncologists, radiologists, and pathologists with 3–5 years’ experience.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, AI assistance could make MDT reports more accurate and faster, potentially improving treatment decisions for patients.

How similar studies have gone: Early studies and benchmarks show LLMs can help clinical summarization and reasoning, but randomized trials of LLM assistance in multidisciplinary tumor boards are limited and this application is relatively novel.
