| Guide for use: | The outcome of treatment is recorded at the completion of the course of treatment for the cancer. CODE 1.0 Complete response/no evidence of disease Complete disappearance of all measurable disease, including tumour markers, for at least four weeks. No new lesions or new evidence of disease. For breast cancer, this reflects "No evidence of disease". CODE 2.1 Partial response A decrease by at least 50% of the sum of the products of the maximum diameter and perpendicular diameter of all measurable lesions, for at least four weeks. No new lesions or worsening of disease. CODE 2.2 Stable or static disease No change in measurable lesions qualifying as partial response or progression and no evidence of new lesions. CODE 2.3 Progressive disease An increase by at least 25% of the sum of the products of the maximum diameter and a perpendicular diameter of any measurable lesion, or the appearance of new lesions. CODE 9.0 Not stated/inadequately described The tumour was assessed but the percentage of increase or decrease in the tumour size is not stated or is inadequately described. |
