RareDxR1: Autonomous Medical Reasoning for Rare Disease Diagnosis Beyond Human Annotation

Rare disease differential diagnosis is a critical yet arduous clinical task, requiring physicians to identify precise phenotypes from complex, unstructured patient symptoms and execute intricate reasoning within a vast search space. However, existing AI approaches typically rely on pipeline-based phenotype extraction or retrieval-augmented generation, which suffer from critical information loss due to predefined ontologies, retrieval bottlenecks, and a lack of diagnostic logic. To address these challenges, we introduce RareDxR1, an end-to-end reasoning-centric large language model designed for open-domain rare disease diagnosis directly from unstructured clinical notes. We design a progressive end-to-end training framework by synergizing knowledge internalization with autonomous evolutionary learning, thereby bypassing reliance on structured phenotypes and closed-set decision-making. To overcome the limitations of RAG and phenotype restriction, we enabled the deep internalization of fragmented rare-disease knowledge directly into the model's parameters. Moreover, to bridge the gap between model generation and expert reasoning, we propose Reflection-Enhanced Reasoning Sampling (RERS), a strategy that synthesizes expert-level diagnostic trajectories by learning from failures without human annotation. Additionally, we propose a dual-level curriculum reinforcement learning approach for gradually mastering rare disease diagnosis. Experimental results demonstrate that RareDxR1 achieves state-of-the-art accuracy across different benchmarks, marking a significant breakthrough in open-domain rare disease diagnosis. Our code and dataset will be publicly available.
