The EMPaCT Classifier: A Validated Tool to Predict Postoperative Prostate Cancer-related Death Using Competing-risk Analysis

Background Accurate prediction of survival after radical prostatectomy (RP) is important for making decisions regarding multimodal therapies. There is a lack of tools to predict prostate cancer–related death (PCRD) in patients with high-risk features. Objective To develop and validate a prognostic model that predicts PCRD combining pathologic features and using competing-risks analysis. Design, setting, and participants This was a retrospective...
