Clinical Translation Research on a Multi-omics Breast Cancer Distant Metastasis Prediction Model Empowered by Artificial Intelligence (COMPASS-BC)

February 27, 2026 updated by: Jian Huang, Second Affiliated Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University

A Multi-omics Breast Cancer Distant Metastasis Prediction Model Empowered by Artificial Intelligence and Its Clinical Translation Research

Breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies in women worldwide, and distant metastasis is the main cause of poor prognosis and death. This project aims to construct a precision prediction system based on multi-omics (digital pathology, immunohistochemistry, proteomics, gene sequencing) and artificial intelligence to predict distant and organ-specific metastasis (bone, lung, liver, brain) in breast cancer, analyze its mechanisms, and provide new solutions for precision medicine.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

The study population comprises female patients diagnosed with breast cancer between 2000 and 2028, identified through participating hospital centers. This includes patients who have developed distant (organ-specific) metastasis (liver, lung, bone, or brain) and for whom primary and/or metastatic tissue samples are available.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Female patients pathologically diagnosed with breast cancer at our hospital or participating centers between January 1, 2000, and December 30, 2028.
  2. Must meet one of the following: 1) Initially diagnosed with breast cancer at our hospital, has developed distant metastasis (liver, bone, lung, or brain), and has a biopsy or surgical specimen from the metastatic site stored at our hospital, with complete clinical information available. 2) Primary tumor specimen is not at our hospital, but a biopsy or surgical specimen from a distant metastatic site (liver, bone, lung, brain) is stored at our hospital.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Concomitant metastatic malignancy from another primary cancer.
  2. Incomplete clinical information.

Design Details

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Group 1
Metastatic Risk Stratification (High/Medium/Low Risk)
Group 2
Organ-Specific Metastasis (Bone/Lung/Liver/Brain)
Group 3
Non-Metastatic Control Group

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Metastasis-Free Survival
Time Frame: From diagnosis up to December 30, 2028
Time from initial breast cancer diagnosis to the occurrence of distant metastasis.
From diagnosis up to December 30, 2028

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Performance of Prediction Models
Time Frame: At the end of the study (December 2028)

Evaluate the performance of (1) the metastatic risk stratification model, (2) the organ-specific metastasis prediction model, and (3) the metastasis time-window prediction model.

Measure: Accuracy and Area Under the Curve (AUC). (Target accuracy ≥80%, AUC ≥0.80)
At the end of the study (December 2028)

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
December 1, 2025

Primary Completion (Estimated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
December 30, 2028

Study Completion (Estimated)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.

Plan for Individual participant data (IPD)

Plan to Share Individual Participant Data (IPD)?

NO

IPD Plan Description

Sharing of IPD is not guaranteed and is strictly conditional. First, consent for the long-term storage and future research use of data is collected as a separate, optional item on the Informed Consent Form. Therefore, IPD cannot be shared from any participant who does not provide this specific optional consent.

Second, the study involves highly sensitive multi-modal data, including digital pathology, proteomics, and genomic sequencing. This data is subject to strict privacy-preserving protocols (such as encryption and differential privacy) and oversight by the institutional data security committee to protect participant confidentiality and prevent re-identification.
