About this study

Official title: Prognostic Prediction of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Based on Radiomics Features of MR Diffusion-weighted Imaging

The purpose of this study is to explore whether the imaging model based on RESOLVE-DWI sequence can exploiting the heterogeneity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and indicate the prognosis, so as to provide intervention information for clinical decision-making. All patients were randomly divided into the training group and the validation group. Radiomics features extracted from T2-weighted, DWI, apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), and contrast- enhanced T1-weighted were used to build a radiomics model. Patients'clinical variables were also obtained to build a clinical model. Model of training cohort was established using cross-validation for nasopharyngeal carcinoma prognosis by machine learning, including Logistics Regression, SVM, KNN, Decision Tree, Random Forest, XGBoost, and then, the model will be verified in the validation cohort. Area under the curve (AUC) of the Machine learning model was used as the main evaluation metric.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Calculating AUC of machine learning model based on MR diffusion-weighted imaging to evaluate efficacy for prognosis

    After building machine learning model based on the features extracted by MR diffusion-weighted imaging of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Some measurements will be output from machine learning model such as AUC、F1、Accuracy and so on. Area under the curve (AUC) of the Machine learning model will be used as the main evaluation metric to evaluate the efficacy of a machine learning model which is used to predict the prognosis of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).

    Measured: Before January 2022

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Comparing AUC of machine learning model based on MR diffusion-weighted imaging and conventional MR sequences for prognosis

    After separately building machine learning model based on the highly correlated features extracted by MR diffusion-weighted imaging and conventional MR sequences of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Some measurements will be output from the machine learning models such as AUC、F1、Accuracy and so on. Area under the curve (AUC) of the Machine learning model will be used as the main evaluation metric to study if the prediction efficiency of the machine learning model based on the highly correlated features extracted by MR diffusion weighted imaging imaging is better than that of conventional MR sequences.

    Measured: Before January 2022

  2. Calculating AUC of machine learning model based on MR diffusion-weighted imaging combinated with conventional MR sequence to evaluate efficacy for prognosis

    Fianlly, we build a machine learning model based on MR diffusion-weighted imaging combinated with conventional MR sequences from patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Some measurements will be output from the machine learning models such as AUC、F1、Accuracy and so on. Area under the curve (AUC) of the Machine learning model will be used as the main evaluation metric to explore whether the machine learning model established by imaging features of MR diffusion-weighted imaging and conventional MR sequence has best prediction efficiency comparing with the models mentioned above.

    Measured: Before January 2022

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Patients With Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, run by Fifth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University 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 3 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Nov 2021. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Calculating AUC of machine learning model based on MR diffusion-weighted imaging to evaluate efficacy for prognosis (time frame: Before January 2022). 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 9 Nov 2021.
