AI-based augmentation of oncology clinical trials
Oncology clinical trials are often characterized by slow accrual, high failure rates and limited generalizability, reflecting both biological complexity and operational inefficiencies. Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) - enabled by large-scale electronic health record datasets and machine learning methods - offer new opportunities to address these challenges across the clinical trial lifecycle. In this Review, we discuss applications of AI across pre-trial design, trial conduct, and post-trial inference a…
AI augmentation of operational workflows under human oversight improves oncology trial feasibility and patient identification, with tools for enrollment screening and monitoring now implemented at select cancer centres.
AI augmentation of oncology trials faces cross-cutting equity, data quality and drift, transparency, and regulatory oversight challenges, while AI approaches intended to replace clinical evidence generation lack prospective validation.
Replacement uses such as synthetic control arms and digital twins have limited prospective validation and unresolved methodological and regulatory challenges, and broader adoption requires rigorous prospective validation and harmonized standards.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0725 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
