Predicting Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Ovarian Cancer from CT Baseline Using Multi-Loss Deep Learning

ArXi:2605.14991v1 Announce Type: new Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy: around 60% of patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage, with an associated 5-year survival rate of about 30%. Early identification of non-responders to neoadjuvant chemotherapy remains a key unmet need, as it could prevent ineffective therapy and avoid delays in optimal surgical management. This work proposes a non-invasive deep learning framework to predict neoadjuvant chemotherapy response from pre-treatment contrast-enhanced CT by leveraging automatically derived 3D lesion masks.
