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.

Real-World Multi-Modal and Longitudinal Lung Cancer Dataset

The paper presents a newly curated, multi-center, multi-modal, and longitudinal lung cancer dataset comprising 1,365 patients with whole-slide images, CT scans, PET scans, structured clinical data, transcriptomics, and follow-up information. The dataset features substantial, non-uniform missingness across modalities, making it ideal for evaluating robust multi-modal fusion strategies. Benchmarks on 12‑month overall survival, disease‑specific survival, and longitudinal hazard prediction demonstrate that integrating complementary modalities consistently outperforms uni-modal approaches, even under severe missing data.
