Abstract
Cancer-related symptoms (ie, ECOG PS > 0), hepatic tumor burden greater than 50%, increased bilirubin levels, and hepatic metastases from breast cancer were found to be negative prognostic factors. Tumor response to therapy and lymphocyte depression were associated with favorable prognosis. Additionally, WHO response was identified to be a favorable prognostic factor in patients with colorectal cancer metastases. These findings may be useful when counseling patients regarding prognosis of their hepatic disease.
