About this study

Official title: The Value of a Renal Artery Perfusion Model Based on Convolutional Neural Network in Predicting Renal Function After Partial Nephrectomy: A Prospective, Single-Center Study

The goal of this observational study is to develop a CNN-based machine module to predict postoperative fractional renal function in people who are proposed to undergo partial nephrectomy. The main question it aims to answer is:

  • Does this machine learning model accurately predict renal function after partial nephrectomy?
Read the detailed description

This prospective study is conducted to predict postoperative fractional renal function using the perfusion deficit method from a preoperatively established renal arterial perfusion model for people who are proposed to undergo partial nephrectomy. In this study, this prediction method will be compared with the true missing values of renal units on nuclear renal function, eGFR, and CTA. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of applying the CNN-based model in predicting postoperative renal function after partial nephrectomy and provide high-level clinical evidence for the preoperative integrated diagnostic and treatment process of renal tumors, especially in terms of the functional evaluation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Renal Cell Cancer, run by Shao Pengfei at 2 sites 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 5 inclusion and 7 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Shao Pengfei, Professor (+8613851925825, spf032@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

GFR of ipsilateral and contralateral kidneys (time frame: 3 months after surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 17 Apr 2025.
