Development and Assessment of a Model for Predicting Individualized Outcomes in Patients With Oropharyngeal Cancer

Importance

Recent insights into the biologic characteristics and treatment of oropharyngeal cancer may help inform improvements in prognostic modeling. A bayesian multistate model incorporates sophisticated statistical techniques to provide individualized predictions of survival and recurrence outcomes for patients with newly diagnosed oropharyngeal cancer.

Objective

To develop a model for individualized survival, locoregional...
