Implication

Systematic review shows multimodal models improve overall survival prediction in cancer, highlighting the need for better validation.

Key Points

  • Multimodal machine learning approaches outperformed unimodal models in predicting overall survival in cancer patients.
  • Forty-eight studies across 19 cancer types revealed c-indices between 0.550 and 0.857, indicating mixed predictive performance.
  • Data synthesis followed SWiM and PRISMA 2020 guidelines, assessing bias with PROBAST+AI for improved reliability.
  • Further methodological rigor and clinical evaluations are essential for translating these findings to clinical practice.
