AI model ClinRAG-GRAPH improves breast cancer pCR prediction

Researchers have developed ClinRAG-GRAPH, a novel framework for predicting pathological complete response (pCR) in breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy. This model integrates multimodal data, including DCE-MRI, clinical variables, and pathological biomarkers, using a graph convolutional network. To address multicenter imaging heterogeneity, a domain-adversarial learning strategy is employed to mitigate MRI protocol bias. Additionally, an LLM-driven retrieval-augmented generation module enhances interpretability by referencing analogous historical cases for pCR inference. The framework demonstrated robust performance across multiple datasets, achieving AUCs of 0.815 on an internal test set and 0.774/0.712 on external test sets. AI

IMPACT This model could enhance treatment stratification for breast cancer patients by improving pre-treatment response prediction.
