Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with advanced gastric cancer who have not received prior anti-cancer treatments.

Probably not a fit

Patients with unclear CT or pathology images or those diagnosed with other concurrent tumors 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 study aims to create a deep-learning model that predicts how well gastric cancer patients will respond to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. By analyzing CT imaging data, biopsy pathology images, and clinical information from participants, the model will forecast treatment efficacy and prognosis. The research will utilize data from 1,800 retrospective cases and 200 prospective cases, with the retrospective data used to train the model and the prospective data to validate its performance. The ultimate goal is to assist in personalized treatment decisions for gastric cancer patients.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to more personalized and effective treatment plans for gastric cancer patients.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies utilizing AI for treatment outcome prediction in oncology have shown promising results, indicating potential success for this approach.

* Have not undergone any systematic anti-cancer treatments before neoadjuvant chemotherapy and have not had surgery for local progression or distant metastasis;
* Received standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy as recommended by the clinical guidelines, and have documented treatment details;
* CT imaging and biopsy pathology images strictly taken within one month prior to starting neoadjuvant treatment;
* Patients possess comprehensive preoperative clinical information and post-operative TRG grading.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients whose CT or pathology images are unclear, making lesion assessment infeasible;
