uiss_rcc_staging: UCLA Integrated Staging System (UISS) for Renal Cell Carcinoma

Description

Calculates the UISS risk stratification for patients with Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC). The system divides patients into Localized or Metastatic disease categories and then stratifies them into Low, Intermediate, or High risk groups based on TNM stage, Fuhrman nuclear grade, and ECOG performance status to predict 5-year survival.

Usage

uiss_rcc_staging(tnm_t_stage, tnm_n_stage, tnm_m_stage, fuhrman_grade,
                 ecog_performance_status)

Value

A list containing:

UISS_Risk_Group

The calculated risk group (Low, Intermediate, or High) appended with the disease state (Localized vs Metastatic).

Est_5_Year_Survival

Estimated 5-year cancer-specific survival based on the risk group.

Arguments

tnm_t_stage

String. The TNM T-stage of the tumor (1997 classification). Options: "t1", "t2", "t3", "t4".

tnm_n_stage

String. The TNM N-stage. Options: "n0" (No lymph nodes), "n1", "n2" (Positive lymph nodes).

tnm_m_stage

String. The TNM M-stage. Options: "m0" (No distant metastasis), "m1" (Distant metastasis).

fuhrman_grade

Numeric. Fuhrman nuclear grade (1, 2, 3, or 4).

ecog_performance_status

Numeric. ECOG Performance Status score (0-4).
