Deep learning system for predicting outcomes in bladder cancer
Official title: Whole-slide Image and CT Radiomics Based Deep Learning System for Prognostication Prediction in Bladder Cancer
Run by First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University · NCT06389019 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing a new computer system that uses images of bladder cancer tissue and scans to see if it can better predict how long patients will live and how their cancer will behave after surgery.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are patients with bladder cancer who have undergone surgery such as radical cystectomy or transurethral resection of bladder tumor.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with non-urothelial carcinoma or those with incomplete imaging and clinical data may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This research focuses on developing a deep learning-based system to predict overall and cancer-specific survival in patients with bladder cancer. By analyzing histopathological tissue slides and CT scans, the system aims to provide accurate prognostic stratification. The goal is to enhance treatment decision-making by offering insights into patient outcomes based on their unique cancer characteristics. The study will involve patients who have undergone surgical procedures for bladder cancer and have complete imaging and clinical data.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this system could significantly improve treatment decisions and patient outcomes for those diagnosed with bladder cancer.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies utilizing deep learning and radiomics in cancer prognosis have shown promising results, indicating potential for success in this approach.
