About
This dataset contains detailed information on bone tumours collected from patients at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC). It serves as a valuable resource for studying the incidence, prevalence, and outcomes associated with bone tumours. Furthermore, it offers significant potential for researchers and medical professionals working towards the development of new treatments for these conditions.
Columns
- Patient ID: A unique identifier assigned to each individual patient.
- Sex: The patient's biological sex, recorded as male or female.
- Age: The patient's age in years at the point of their diagnosis.
- Grade: An assessment of the tumour's aggressiveness, categorised as Low, Intermediate, or High grade. Low-grade tumours are slow-growing and less likely to spread, Intermediate are of medium growth and have an average risk of spreading, and High-grade tumours are fast-growing and more likely to spread.
- Histological type: The specific type of tumour, including examples such as osteosarcoma or Ewing sarcoma.
- MSKCC type: A more precise classification of the tumour, specific to MSKCC terminology.
- Site of primary STS: The anatomical location within the bone where the tumour originated.
- Status (NED, AWD, D): The patient's current health status following diagnosis and treatment. This includes:
- NED: No Evidence of Disease, indicating the patient is cancer-free.
- AWD: Alive With Disease, meaning the patient has cancer but without signs of disease progression.
- D: Deceased, indicating the patient has died from cancer.
- Treatment: The therapeutic interventions received by the patient, which may include surgery, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy.
