Predicting disease progression from the rate of bodyweight change in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patient during radiotherapy

Abstract Bodyweight loss is a common occurrence in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC) patients during Radiotherapy (RT). Previous studies found that the prognostic value of percentage weight loss (pWL) during RT is not credible. We aimed to develop a novel progression predictor surrogated to pWL by mode...
