Official title
Multimodal AI-based Therapy Response Prediction and Risk Stratification for Esophageal Cancer
Overview
This AI-driven model leverages multimodal data-such as radiomics, pathomics, genomics, and broader multi-omics profiles-to capture complementary aspects of tumor biology and predict treatment response and prognosis.
Detailed description
Built upon retrospective cohorts for model development and rigorously validated in prospective cohorts, the proposed AI predictive model integrates multimodal data (radiomics, pathomics, genomics, and multi-omics)-each reflecting distinct dimensions of tumor heterogeneity-to enable joint prediction of treatment response and clinical outcomes.
Primary outcome measures
- overall survival [Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 3 years]

Exclusion criteria
- Imaging data quality insufficient for analysis
- Presence of another primary malignant tumor
