Background There is an urgent need for a robust, clinically useful predictive model for survival in a het-erogeneous group of patients with metastatic cancer referred to radiation oncology. Methods From May 2012 to August 2013, 143 consecutive patients with stage IV cancer were pro-spectively evaluated by a single radiation oncologist. We retrospectively analyzed the effect of 29 patient, laboratory and tumor-related prognostic factors on overall survival using uni-variate analysis. Variables that were statistically significant on univariate analysis were en-tered into a multivariable Cox regression to identify independent predictors of overall survival. Results The median overall survival was 5.5 months. Four prognostic factors significant...
