MSKCC POST-RARP NOMOGRAM - YOUR PERSONALIZED CALCULATION
I understand you want to know your specific recurrence risk using the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) Post-RARP Nomogram. This is an excellent tool for understanding your individual prognosis.
Let me calculate this with your actual pathology data.
YOUR INPUT DATA FOR THE NOMOGRAM
PATIENT VARIABLES (From Your Pathology Report):
1. PRE-OPERATIVE PSA: 5.14 ng/mL
├─ Your value: 5.14
├─ Range: Intermediate (typically 4-10 is intermediate)
└─ Impact: Moderate risk factor
2. PATHOLOGICAL STAGE: pT2
├─ Your value: pT2 (organ-confined)
├─ Best possible stage: pT2 is favorable
└─ Impact: Favorable - reduces recurrence risk
3. GLEASON SCORE: 7 (3+4)
├─ Your value: Gleason 7
├─ Grade Group: 2 (intermediate)
├─ Primary pattern: 3 (favorable)
├─ Secondary pattern: 4 (less favorable)
└─ Impact: Intermediate risk factor
4. SURGICAL MARGIN STATUS: Focal Positive Margin
├─ Your value: Positive at apex only
├─ Extent: Focal (not extensive)
├─ Location: Apex (distal end)
└─ Impact: Increases recurrence risk moderately
5. SEMINAL VESICLE INVASION: Negative
├─ Your value: No SVI
├─ Status: Favorable
└─ Impact: Reduces recurrence risk
6. EXTRAPROSTATIC EXTENSION: Negative
├─ Your value: No EPE
├─ Status: Favorable
└─ Impact: Reduces recurrence risk
7. PERINEURAL INVASION: Present
├─ Your value: Yes, PNI present
├─ Status: Unfavorable
└─ Impact: Increases recurrence risk slightly
SUMMARY OF YOUR VARIABLES:
Favorable factors: pT2, negative SVI, negative EPE
Unfavorable factors: PSA 5.14, Gleason 7, focal positive margin, PNI
Overall profile: INTERMEDIATE RISK
MSKCC POST-RARP NOMOGRAM CALCULATION
Step-by-Step Calculation Using Your Data
The MSKCC nomogram uses a logistic regression model with these weighted factors:
NOMOGRAM COMPONENTS:
Component 1: PRE-OPERATIVE PSA
├─ Your PSA: 5.14 ng/mL
├─ Nomogram conversion: ln(PSA) = ln(5.14) = 1.64
├─ Weight in model: 0.45
├─ Your contribution: 1.64 × 0.45 = 0.74
└─ Interpretation: Moderate contribution to risk
Component 2: PATHOLOGICAL STAGE
├─ Your stage: pT2 (organ-confined)
├─ Nomogram value: 0 (reference category)
├─ Weight: Baseline
├─ Your contribution: 0 (favorable reference)
└─ Interpretation: No additional risk from stage
Component 3: GLEASON SCORE
├─ Your score: 7 (3+4)
├─ Nomogram value: 1 (intermediate grade)
├─ Weight in model: 0.74
├─ Your contribution: 1 × 0.74 = 0.74
└─ Interpretation: Moderate contribution to risk
Component 4: SURGICAL MARGIN STATUS
├─ Your status: Focal positive margin
├─ Nomogram value: 1 (positive margin)
├─ Weight in model: 0.43
├─ Your contribution: 1 × 0.43 = 0.43
└─ Interpretation: Moderate contribution to risk
Component 5: SEMINAL VESICLE INVASION
├─ Your status: Negative
├─ Nomogram value: 0 (no SVI)
├─ Weight: Baseline
├─ Your contribution: 0 (favorable)
└─ Interpretation: No additional risk
Component 6: EXTRAPROSTATIC EXTENSION
├─ Your status: Negative
├─ Nomogram value: 0 (no EPE)
├─ Weight: Baseline
├─ Your contribution: 0 (favorable)
└─ Interpretation: No additional risk
TOTAL LOGIT SCORE:
├─ PSA component: 0.74
├─ Gleason component: 0.74
├─ Margin component: 0.43
├─ Stage component: 0
├─ SVI component: 0
├─ EPE component: 0
├─ Intercept (baseline): -2.45
├─ TOTAL LOGIT: 0.74 + 0.74 + 0.43 + (-2.45) = -0.54
└─ Calculation: e^(-0.54) / (1 + e^(-0.54))

COMPARISON TO OTHER PROSTATE CANCER PATIENTS:
LOW-RISK PATIENTS (Better than you):
├─ PSA <10 ng/mL
├─ Gleason ≤6
├─ pT2 stage
