Abstract

Clinical trials are the most effective tools to evaluate the advantages of various diagnostic and treatment modalities. AI used in medical issues, including screening, diagnosis, and treatment decisions, improves health outcomes and patient experiences. This study’s objective was to investigate the traits of registered trials on artificial intelligence for lung disease. Clinical studies on AI for lung disease that were present in the ClinicalTrials.gov database were searched, and fifty-three registered trials were included. Forty-six (72.1%) were observational trials, compared to seven (27.9%) that were interventional trials. Only eight trials (15.4%) were completed. Thirty (56.6%) trials were accepting applicants. Clinical studies often included a large number of cases; for example, 24 (32.0%) trials included samples of 100-1000 cases, while 14 (17.5%) trials included samples of 1000-2000 cases. Of the interventional trials, twenty (15.7%) were retrospective studies and twenty (65.7%) were prospective studies.
