Adjuvant systemic therapy tools

These Web pages provide tools that help physicians calculate prognoses for patients with curatively resected cancers (breast, colon or melanoma) for:

1. Local-regional treatment alone
2. Local-regional treatment plus adjuvant systemic therapy

These tools are intended for use by doctors. The results of these tools alone should never be used to determine a patient's medical treatment. These tools are a statistical model and are not a substitute for an individual treatment plan developed by a doctor with personal knowledge of a specific patient. Other important factors that must be considered include the patient's own medical history, the patient's family medical history, and the experience, knowledge and training of the doctor.
