Augmenting Insufficiently Accruing Oncology Clinical Trials Using Generative Models: Validation Study

BACKGROUND: Insufficient patient accrual is a major challenge in clinical trials and can result in underpowered studies, as well as exposing study participants to toxicity and additional costs, with limited scientific benefit. Real-world data can provide external controls, but insufficient accrual affects all arms of a study, not just controls. Studies that used generative models to simulate more patients were limited in the accrual scenarios …
