摘要

Background

Colorectal cancer (CRC) represents a significant global health challenge, being one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Advances in predictive modeling are crucial for improving treatment outcomes.

Objectives

The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of machine learning algorithms in predicting the outcomes of therapeutic interventions for colorectal cancer patients, comparing results from Palestinian patient data with global benchmarks.

Methods

This study analyzes data sourced from the Ministry of Health in Palestine and the Cancer Data Access System (CDAS), providing a diverse clinical setting.

We applied KNeighbors Classifier, Random Forest Classifier and XGBoost models to predict treatment success, recurrence, and survival rates. These models were evaluated using accuracy metrics and area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.

Results

The results demonstrate that machine learning models can significantly enhance prediction accuracy for treatment outcomes in CRC. Factors such as age and stage of cancer were identified as critical predictors of patient outcomes.

Conclusion

Machine learning offers substantial potential to improve the precision of therapeutic interventions in colorectal cancer by enabling personalized treatment plans. However, integration of real-time data and further validation of models are necessary to optimize clinical applications.
