Study population: The study population consists of 555 adult patients with pathologically confirmed hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent curative hepatectomy. All subjects had complete preoperative gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI, digital pathological whole-slide images, clinical records and long-term follow-up data. Cases were retrospectively collected from three Chinese tertiary hospitals and the public TCGA-LIHC database, excluding patients with incomplete imaging, pathological or follow-up information.
Who may be able to join
- patients with pathologically confirmed hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC);
- patients accepting curative surgical resection (SR) without preoperative adjuvant treatment;
- MRI were performed two weeks before surgery.
Who cannot join
- incomplete clinical information;
- incomplete or suboptimal quality of preoperative MRI imaging data;
- unavailable or poor-quality pathological whole slide images (WSIs);
- incomplete follow-up data.

About this study
Official title: Multimodal Hybrid Deep Learning-based Prognostic Decision System to Guide Adjuvant Therapy in Hepatocellular Carcinoma After Surgical Resection
This is a completed multi-center retrospective observational study focusing on patients who received curative surgical resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We collected anonymized historical clinical data, preoperative gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI scans and digital pathological whole-slide images from three Chinese medical centers and the public TCGA-LIHC database. We developed a multimodal hybrid deep learning prognostic model (named HCC-MPDS) integrating multi-source medical data to stratify HCC patients into high-risk and low-risk recurrence groups after surgery. The primary goal of this study is to compare postoperative recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) between the two risk subgroups, and evaluate whether this artificial intelligence prediction system can help clinicians identify patients who may benefit from postoperative adjuvant therapy. No new experimental drugs or interventional treatments were provided to participants; all data were retrospectively extracted from archived medical records under institutional ethics approval, with waived written informed consent for de-identified historical samples and images.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| MPDS High-risk patients (risk score > -1.76) | Not described | |
| MPDS Low-risk patients (risk score ≤ -1.76) | Not described |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS)
Time from surgical resection to first local/regional recurrence, distant metastasis or all-cause death, whichever occurs first
Measured: Up to 60 months after hepatectomy

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
This is a completed multi-center retrospective observational study focusing on patients who received curative surgical resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We collected anonymized historical clinical data, preoperative gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI scans and digital pathological whole-slide images from three Chinese medical centers and the public TCGA-LIHC database. We developed a multimodal hybrid deep learning prognostic model (named HCC-MPDS) integrating multi-source medical data to stratify HCC patients into high-risk and low-risk recurrence groups after surgery.
