Alternative Splicing Based Prediction of Chemotherapy Response in Gastric Cancer (NCT07587229)

A Multicenter Observational Study to Develop and Validate an Alternative Splicing-Based Machine Learning Model for Predicting Response to 5-FU-Based Adjuvant Chemotherapy in Gastric Cancer (VERSA-GC Study)

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Interventional Protocol ๐Ÿ“Š Observational Clinical Research Sponsor: City of Hope Medical Center

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This study aims to develop a model to predict response to chemotherapy in gastric cancer using RNA splicing information from tumor tissue. By analyzing genetic patterns and applying machine learning, the study seeks to identify patients who are less likely to benefit from treatment, helping guide clinical decision-making.
