Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Accurate information about locoregional breast cancer treatments following neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NST) is essential for meaningful interpretation of oncological outcomes but reporting is currently poor. We developed a core outcome set (COS) to improve the quality and consistency of locoregional outcome reporting in breast cancer NST trials. The COS was developed in three phases according to COS-STAD guidance, with the generation of a list of relevant outcome domains, prioritisation of outcomes through two rounds of an international online multi-stakeholder Delphi survey and a consensus meeting. 159 unique locoregional outcomes were classified into 101 outcome domains for inclusion in the Delphi survey, which was completed by 470 international professionals. The final 15-item COS, which included the pre-NST surgical plan, details of surgery performed following completion of treatment and details of radiation therapy, was agreed at an in-person consensus meeting. Widespread COS implementation will improve the quality and value of future NST trials.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
