Estimate prognosis in patients with brain metastases using the graded prognostic assessment
Due to significant heterogeneity in survival after brain metastases that depends, in part, on the primary tumor, a diagnosis-specific prognostic index was developed.
The diagnosis-specific graded prognostic assessment (DS-GPA) is based on an analysis of 3940 patients with newly diagnosed brain metastases.
Unique prognostic models were developed for patients with non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, melanoma, renal cell carcinoma, breast cancer, and gastrointestinal cancer.
