A Multimodal Dataset for Survival Prediction in Resected Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

The paper introduces a multimodal dataset for survival prediction in resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, comprising 302 patients, 446 H&E whole-slide images, clinicopathological variables, targeted sequencing data for 154 patients, and overall survival outcomes. The authors evaluated fourteen survival‑prediction models, finding that a Ridge Cox regression on numeric clinicopathological variables achieved the highest concordance (≈0.65), while multimodal fusion of image and molecular data reached 0.619. These benchmarks provide a foundation for future research and external validation using this pancreas‑specific dataset.

MIST: Multimodal Survival Prediction with Genomic-Guided Histology Attention

MIST is a multimodal survival prediction framework that fuses whole-slide images and genomic profiles by representing genomic features as tokens that query histology context tokens derived from a foundation model. The architecture enriches molecular information with histology context before survival prediction, avoiding late-stage merging of separately encoded modalities. Training incorporates discrete-time survival prediction, genomic feature masking, WSI dropout, and contrastive alignment, and demonstrates improved external C-index across colon, renal, lung, and glioblastoma cohorts compared to standard fusion baselines.

Multimodality Stacking with Blockwise missing values and application to the PIONeeR biomarkers study for prediction of resistance to immunotherapy

arXiv:2605. 25050v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Integrating multimodal datasets in clinical oncology is frequently hindered by high dimensionality and blockwise missingness, where entire data sources are unavailable for specific patient subsets.

Probing, Fusion, and Trustworthiness: A Systematic Evaluation of Foundation Model Representations for Multimodal Cancer Analysis

arXiv:2606. 17115v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation models (FMs) have emerged as powerful representation extractors for medical data, yet their generalizability to datasets under distribution shift remains underexplored.
