Illustrative 5-year overall-survival estimate.
With PORT
—
Illustrative comparison only; not an individual treatment-benefit estimate.
Interpretation
Clinical note: Consider all pathology, staging, performance status, comorbidity, patient preferences, and local treatment protocols. This calculator does not replace multidisciplinary assessment.
Model status and implementation notes
The original point-based weighting is retained as an illustrative local calculation. Before publishing this as a clinical tool, replace the illustrative coefficients and percentage outputs with a formally validated model, verified references, versioned staging criteria, and an appropriate governance review.
- Do not describe the output as a validated survival probability or as a PORT recommendation.
- Use the staging category assigned in the patient record rather than relying on abbreviated stage descriptions in the interface.
- Keep the clinical content and references under routine review as staging guidance changes.
