Abstract: Early and accurate cancer detection is essential for improving patient survival rates and enabling timely clinical intervention. However, conventional diagnostic approaches and classical machine learning techniques often encounter challenges in processing high-dimensional biomedical datasets due to feature redundancy, computational complexity, and limited predictive performance. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a quantum-assisted intelligent framework for early cancer detection by integrating advanced quantum-inspired preprocessing, feature optimization, and hybrid predictive modeling techniques. The proposed methodology employs Quantum-Normalized Adaptive Refinement (Q-NAR) to enhance data quality through effective preprocessing, Wrapper Component Attribute Analysis (WCAA) to rank significant biomedical features, and Swing L-Bee Mustard Optimization (SLBMO) to identify the optimal feature subset while reducing dimensionality. Finally, a Quantum Boosted Vector Fusion Network (QBVFN) is developed to perform accurate cancer classification and treatment outcome prediction. The proposed framework is validated using biomedical data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) within a Python-based implementation environment. Experimental evaluation demonstrates that the proposed approach achieves superior prediction accuracy, improved feature optimization, and enhanced computational efficiency compared with conventional machine learning models. The obtained results highlight the effectiveness of integrating quantum computing principles with machine learning techniques to support next-generation intelligent cancer diagnosis and precision healthcare systems.
