Detection of Adverse Event Signals with Severity Grade Classification from Cancer Patient Narrative.
Studies in Health Technology and Informatics 2024 January 26
Adverse event (AE) management is crucial to improve anti-cancer treatment outcomes, but it is reported that some AE signals can be missed in clinical visits. Thus, monitoring AE signals seamlessly, including events outside hospitals, would be helpful for early intervention. Here we investigated how to detect AE signals from texts written by cancer patients themselves by developing deep-learning (DL) models to classify posts mentioning AEs according to severity grade, in order to focus on those that might need immediate treatment interventions. Using patient blogs written in Japanese by cancer patients as a data source, we built DL models based on three approaches, BERT, ELECTRA, and T5. Among these models, T5 showed the best F1 scores for both Grade ≥ 1 and ≥ 2 article classification tasks (0.85 and 0.53, respectively). This model might benefit patients by enabling earlier AE signal detection, thereby improving quality of life.
