Abstract
The prognostic value of C-reactive protein, compared with ECOG performance status (ECOG-ps), in patients receiving alpha-interferon treatment for advanced renal cancer was assessed in 58 patients. In all, 55 patients died on follow-up. On multivariate analysis with ECOG-ps and C-reactive protein entered as covariates, only C-reactive protein was a significant independent predictor of survival (HR 2.03, 95% Cl 1.09-3.80, P = 0.026). © 2004 Cancer Research UK.
