prevail_prostate_cancer_survival: PREVAIL Model for Prostate Cancer Survival

Description

Calculates the Prognostic Index for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) based on the PREVAIL trial data (Armstrong et al., 2017). This model predicts overall survival in men treated with enzalutamide or placebo, utilizing 10 baseline clinical and laboratory factors.

Usage

                                 hemoglobin_g_dl, ldh_u_l,
                                 neutrophil_lymphocyte_ratio,
                                 bone_metastases_gt_10, visceral_disease,
                                 pain_score, psa_ng_ml, months_since_diagnosis)

Value

A list containing:

Prognostic_Index

The calculated linear predictor score.

Risk_Group

General risk categorization based on the prognostic index.

Arguments

albumin_g_l

Numeric. Serum Albumin level in g/L. (Note: Convert from g/dL if necessary by multiplying by 10).

alkaline_phosphatase_u_l

Numeric. Serum Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) in U/L.

hemoglobin_g_dl

Numeric. Hemoglobin level in g/dL.

ldh_u_l

Numeric. Serum Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) in U/L.

neutrophil_lymphocyte_ratio

Numeric. Absolute Neutrophil Count divided by Absolute Lymphocyte Count (NLR).

bone_metastases_gt_10

Numeric (0 or 1). Are there more than 10 bone metastases? (1 = Yes).

visceral_disease

Numeric (0 or 1). Presence of visceral metastases (e.g., liver, lung). (1 = Yes).

pain_score

Numeric. Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI-SF) Item 3: "Rate your worst pain in the last 24 hours" (0-10).

psa_ng_ml

Numeric. Prostate Specific Antigen level in ng/mL.

months_since_diagnosis

Numeric. Time elapsed since the initial diagnosis of prostate cancer in months.
