Tokyo, May 26 -- UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR) received information related to the study (UMIN000061679) titled 'Machine learning-based prediction of lymph node metastases for individualized surgical decision-making in older patients with gastric cancer: A retrospective simulation study compliant with TRIPOD+AI' on May 25.

Study Type: Observational

Primary Sponsor: Institute - Kameda Medical Center

Condition: Condition - Gastric cancer Classification by malignancy - Malignancy Genomic information - NO

Objective: Narrative objectives1 - (1) to develop and temporally validate an LNM prediction model based on preoperative variables in patients aged >=70 years using six machine learning algorithms (2) to quantify the oncological safety [negative predictive value (NPV), false-negative count] of a threshold-guided reduced-surgery strategy via retrospective simulation (3) to perform a comprehensive evaluation of calibration, fairness, and uncertainty compliant with the TRIPOD+AI reporting guidelines Basic objectives2 - Efficacy

Eligibility: Age-lower limit - 70 years-old = Gender - Male and Female Key inclusion criteria - patients aged 70 years and above who underwent gastrectomies with lymph node dissections for gastric cancer between April 1995 and March 2025. Key exclusion criteria - (i) neoadjuvant chemotherapy (ii) distant metastases (M1) Target Size - 1405
