A retrospective study for the treatments and prognosis of brain metastases of gynecologic malignancies - KCOG-G1001s

Mean survival time of the patients with brain metastases was 12.5 months for the ovarian cancer group, 6.2 months for the corpus cancer group, and 5.0 months for the cervical cancer group; two-year overall survival rates were 19.7%, 6.1%, and 4.8%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed ovarian/tubal/peritoneal origin, KPS >70, single brain metastasis, absence of extracranial disease, cranial surgery, cranial radiotherapy, and chemotherapy to be independent favorable prognostic factors associated with overall survival.
