Concordance with SPIRIT-AI guidelines in reporting of randomized controlled trial protocols investigating artificial intelligence in oncology: a systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a promising tool used in oncology that may be able to facilitate diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient management. Transparency and completeness of protocols of randomized controlled trials (RCT) involving AI interventions is necessary to ensure reproducibility of AI tools across diverse clinical settings. The SPIRIT 2013 and SPIRIT-AI 2020 guidelines were developed as evidence-based recommendations for complete reporting of trial protocols. However, the concordance of AI RCT protocols in oncology to SPIRIT reporting guidelines remains unknown. This systematic review evaluates the concordance of protocols of RCTs evaluating AI interventions in oncology to the SPIRIT 2013 and SPIRIT-AI 2020 reporting guidelines.
