A new clinical instrument for estimating the ambulatory status after irradiation for malignant spinal cord compression [Elektronski vir]Rades, Dirk ...Estimating post-treatment ambulatory status can improve treatment personalization of patients irradiated for malignant spinal cord compression (MSCC). A new clinical score was developed from data of ... 283 patients treated with radiotherapy alone in prospective trials. Radiotherapy regimen, age, gender, tumor type, interval from tumor diagnosis to MSCC, number of affected vertebrae, other bone metastases, visceral metastases, time developing motor deficits, ambulatory status, performance score, sensory deficits, and sphincter dysfunction were evaluated. For factors with prognostic relevance in the multivariable logistic regression model after backward stepwise variable selection, scoring points were calculated (post-radiotherapy ambulatory rate in % divided by 10) and added for each patient. Four factors (primary tumor type, sensory deficits, sphincter dysfunction, ambulatory status) were used for the instrument that includes three prognostic groups (17-21, 22-31, and 32-37 points). Post-radiotherapy ambulatory rates were 10%, 65%, and 97%, respectively, and 2-year local control rates were 100%, 75%, and 88%, respectively. Positive predictive values to predict ambulatory and non-ambulatory status were 97% and 90% using the new score, and 98% and 79% using the previous instrument. The new score appeared more precise in predicting non-ambulatory status. Since patients with 32-37 points had high post-radiotherapy ambulatory and local control rates, they may not require surgery.Source: Cancers [Elektronski vir]. - ISSN 2072-6694 (Vol. 14, no. 15, 2022, str. 3827-1-3827-12)Type of material - e-articlePublish date - 2022Language - englishCOBISS.SI-ID - 118806019
