Development of a Predictive Model for Gastric Cancer Peritoneal Metastasis and Cachexia Using BUB1 and Radiopathomics Data With Deep Learning
500 participantsStarted 2025-03-01
Plain-language summary
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.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
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.
Exclusion Criteria:
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.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1This trial seems to be about building a predictive model using BUB1 and imaging data rather than testing a new treatment — does that mean participating would involve sharing my tissue or scan data rather than changing my actual care plan?
2Since this study is not yet recruiting and has no assigned phase, how long might it realistically be before it opens, and should I be making treatment decisions now rather than waiting to see if I can participate?
3The trial is looking at predicting peritoneal metastasis and cachexia specifically — given my current diagnosis, does my doctor think I'm at meaningful risk for either of those, and would the information this model aims to generate actually be useful for my situation?
4BUB1 is one of the biological markers being studied here — can my doctor explain what BUB1 is, whether my tumor has been or could be tested for it, and whether that information already influences any treatment decisions available to me outside this trial?
5Since this is a predictive modeling study rather than a treatment trial, are there standard-of-care approaches or other clinical trials testing actual therapies that my doctor thinks I should be exploring alongside or instead of this one?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
