HCC-MPDS Multimodal Deep Learning Prognostic Model for Resectable HCC

Plain-language summary
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.

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.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

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?
