Abstract
We developed a prognostic score, based on routine parameters easily accessible in daily care. In our analysis of 2269 patients hormone receptor status, the site of metastasis, and metastatic free interval were identified as independent significant prognostic factors for overall survival. Simple clinical measures such as our model may be helpful to further individualize optimal breast cancer care.
