Sumario:BACKGROUND: The prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with bone metastasis is extremely repulsive. The aim of this study was to potentially characterize the prevalence, associated factors and to establish a prognostic nomogram to predict the overall survival (OS) of NSCLC patients with bone metastasis. METHODS: The Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database was used to collected NSCLC cases during 2010–2015. The cases with incomplete clinicopathological information were excluded. Finally, 484 NSCLC patients with bone metastasis were included in the present study and randomly divided into the training (n=340) and validation (n=144) cohorts in a ratio of 7:3 based on R software. NSCLC patients with bone metastasis were selected to investigate predictive factors for OS and cancer-specific survival (CSS) using the multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression. A nomogram incorporating these prognostic factors was developed and evaluated by a concordance index (C-index), calibration plots, and risk group stratifications. RESULTS: In the Cox proportional hazards model, sex, race, American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) N, T stage, liver metastasis, and chemotherapy were regarded as prognostic factors of OS. The nomogram based on sex, race, AJCC N, T stage, liver metastasis and chemotherapy was developed for cancer-specific death to predict 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rate with good performance. The C-index of established nomogram was 0.695 for cancer-specific death in the study population with an acceptable calibration. CONCLUSIONS: The female gender, the patients with chemotherapy and not liver metastasis may indicate improved survival. However, the global prospective data with the latest tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) classification is needed to further improve this model.
