Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 75 years
  • All sexes
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study population will consist of adult patients diagnosed with gastric cancer (GC) at various stages of the disease. Patients will be selected based on the presence of or risk factors for peritoneal metastasis and/or cachexia, which will be assessed through clinical evaluations, imaging (CT/MRI), and histopathological examination. Participants will be recruited from a cohort of GC patients who have available genomic, radiological, and pathological data, which are essential for training the predictive model. The study will focus on patients with a broad spectrum of GC manifestations, including both early and advanced stages, to ensure the model is applicable across different disease profiles. This diverse population will help evaluate the robustness and generalizability of the model in predicting peritoneal metastasis and cachexia, aiming for a comprehensive representation of GC progression.

Who may be able to join

  • Adults aged 18-75 years diagnosed with gastric cancer (GC) at any stage. Histopathologically confirmed GC with available radiological (CT/MRI) and pathological data (biopsy samples).
  • Patients with or at risk of peritoneal metastasis and/or cachexia, as determined by clinical assessment and imaging.
  • Ability to provide informed consent and comply with study protocols. Willingness to undergo regular follow-up imaging and clinical evaluation for the duration of the study.

Who cannot join

  • Patients with other primary cancers or serious comorbidities (e.g., severe cardiovascular disease, uncontrolled diabetes).
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women. Patients with contraindications to MRI or CT imaging. Those with insufficient clinical data (e.g., missing radiopathological information) for model training.
  • Patients who are unable or unwilling to comply with the study protocol, including follow-up visits and evaluations.

About this study

This clinical trial aims to develop a predictive model for gastric cancer (GC) peritoneal metastasis and cachexia by integrating BUB1 gene data with radiological and pathological data using advanced deep learning techniques. The study will focus on utilizing imaging genomics (radiomics) and histopathological data to identify early biomarkers for peritoneal metastasis and cachexia in GC patients. By leveraging deep learning algorithms, the project seeks to improve the accuracy and reliability of predictions, enabling earlier intervention and personalized treatment strategies. The ultimate goal is to enhance clinical decision-making and prognosis prediction in GC patients with peritoneal metastasis and cachexia.

Read the detailed description

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common and aggressive malignancies, with peritoneal metastasis and cachexia significantly contributing to its poor prognosis. The BUB1 gene has been implicated in chromosomal instability and the progression of GC, but its role in peritoneal metastasis and cachexia remains unclear. This clinical trial aims to explore the potential of integrating BUB1 gene expression with imaging and pathological data to develop a predictive model for GC progression.

The study will collect comprehensive data from GC patients, including genomic profiles (BUB1 gene expression), radiological images (CT/MRI scans), and histopathological findings. Advanced radiomics analysis will extract quantitative features from imaging data, while pathological data will be analyzed for relevant histological markers. The combined dataset will be fed into a deep learning model to identify patterns associated with peritoneal metastasis and cachexia, focusing on the identification of early biomarkers.

The deep learning model will undergo iterative training and validation using both retrospective and prospective patient data. The primary endpoint of the trial is to assess the model's predictive accuracy for peritoneal metastasis and cachexia development, while secondary endpoints include its potential to inform personalized treatment strategies, improve survival rates, and guide clinical decision-making.

This study will also investigate the correlation between BUB1 expression and the radiopathomics features in GC, providing insights into the underlying mechanisms driving peritoneal metastasis and cachexia. The findings aim to establish a robust, clinically applicable predictive tool that can be integrated into current clinical practice for better patient outcomes.

  • BUB1-Integrated Deep Learning Model for Gastric Cancer Metastasis and Cachexia PredictionDiagnostic test

    This intervention utilizes a deep learning model that integrates BUB1 gene expression, radiopathomics (quantitative imaging features), and histopathological data to predict peritoneal metastasis and cachexia in gastric cancer (GC) patients. Unlike traditional approaches, this model combines genomic, imaging, and pathological data to enhance early detection and improve prognostic accuracy. The model aims to identify key patterns in multi-modal data to offer personalized predictions for GC progression. By leveraging artificial intelligence, it seeks to support clinicians in decision-making, improving patient outcomes through earlier interventions and tailored treatments. This approach offers a novel, comprehensive method for predicting GC metastasis and cachexia, providing a unique tool compared to existing interventions.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastric (Stomach) Cancer, run by Qun Zhao.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Mar 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Predictive Accuracy of the BUB1-Integrated Deep Learning Model for Gastric Cancer Peritoneal Metastasis and Cachexia (time frame: 12 months for model training, validation, and initial clinical application). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Mar 2025.
