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 85 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients who underwent surgery at the Department of Urology, Peking University First Hospital, with postoperative pathological confirmation of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and who also have complete preoperative contrast-enhanced CT datasets (slice thickness ≤1 mm, lossless DICOM) and definitive pathological staging of pT1a-T2b or pT3a.

Who may be able to join

  • Histopathologically confirmed renal cell carcinoma on postoperative specimen.
  • Preoperative contrast-enhanced CT performed at our institution with slice thickness ≤ 1 mm and complete DICOM datasets.
  • Postoperative pathologic staging clearly defined as pT1a-T2b or pT3a.
  • CT image quality deemed adequate for analysis.

Who cannot join

  • 1. Pathologic subtype other than RCC. 2. Images with severe artifacts.

About this study

This study aims to develop and validate a contrast-enhanced CT-based deep-learning model for automatic and accurate preoperative discrimination between T1-T2 and T3 renal cell carcinoma. By quantifying the model's diagnostic performance on an independent test set-using AUC, sensitivity, specificity, positive/negative predictive values, and decision-curve analysis-we will establish a decision-support tool that can be seamlessly integrated into clinical PACS, thereby reducing staging errors, refining surgical planning, and improving patient outcomes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Carcinoma, Renal Cell and Diagnostic Imaging, run by Peking University First Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 1 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Sep 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

Contact Zejin Ou (159 1494 4390, 2411210230@bjmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

diagnostic performance (time frame: from 2024 to 2027). 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 10 Sep 2025.
