    Synthetic data can address challenges in accessing clinical data for survival prediction models in colorectal cancer.

  • 2

    The study utilized synthetic data from the Colorectal Cancer Clinical Library Artificial Dataset for model training.

  • 3

    Domain adaptation techniques were applied to mitigate performance degradation due to differences between synthetic and real-world data.

  • 4

    The primary outcome measured was 7-year overall survival, using 12 common variables from both synthetic and hospital datasets.

  • 5

    The research aimed to evaluate the clinical applicability of predictive models based on synthetic data in real healthcare settings.
