30-day mortality in patients treated for brain metastases: extracranial causes dominate
Nieder, Carsten; Stanisavljevic, Luka; Aanes, Siv Gyda; Mannsåker, Bård; Haukland, Ellinor Christin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background Established prognostic models, such as the diagnosis-specific graded prognostic assessment, were not designed to specifically address very short survival. Therefore, a brain metastases-specific 30-day mortality ... -
Days at home in the last three months of life: patterns-of-care analysis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer
Nieder, Carsten; Aanes, Siv Gyda; Haukland, Ellinor Christin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Introduction: To calculate the number of days patients with terminal non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) spent at home in the last 3 months of life, and to identify factors that predict a lower proportion of days at ... -

Nieder, Carsten; Aanes, Siv Gyda; Haukland, Ellinor Christin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Introduction: To calculate the number of days patients with terminal non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) spent at home in the last 3 months of life, and to identify factors that predict a lower proportion of days at home. ... -
Early death after palliative radiation treatment: 30-, 35- and 40-day mortality data and statistically robust predictors
Nieder, Carsten; Stanisavljevic, Luka; Mannsåker, Bård; Haukland, Ellinor Christin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background This study analyzed mortality after radiotherapy for bone metastases (287 courses). Endpoints such as treatment in the last month of life and death within 30, 35 and 40 days from start of radiotherapy were ... -
Feasibility and efficacy of early docetaxel plus androgen deprivation therapy for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer in a rural health care setting
Nieder, Carsten; Stanisavljevic, Luka; Dalhaug, Astrid; Haukland, Ellinor Christin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Aim/Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy, in terms of overall survival, of intensified upfront systemic therapy in patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer who ... -
Implementation of Locoregional Adjuvant Radiotherapy for Breast Cancer in a Rural Healthcare Region: Toxicity Outcomes in the Initial Cohort
Nieder, Carsten; Ressheim, Joakim Grønning; Haukland, Ellinor Christin; Mannsåker, Bård (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background/Aim: The aim of this study was to analyze the toxicity of locoregional adjuvant breast cancer radiotherapy after implementation of this service in a rural healthcare region with long travel distance. Patients ... -
Independent validation of a risk stratification model predicting survival in elderly patients irradiated for bone metastases
Nieder, Carsten; Stanisavljevic, Luka; Mannsåker, Bård; Haukland, Ellinor Christin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background/Aim: Many patients with bone metastases receive palliative radiotherapy. However, treatment personalization tools are needed, due to heterogeneous survival. The aim of this study was to analyze the validity of ... -
Involving patients and next of kin to mitigate adverse events related to systemic anticancer treatment
Haukland, Ellinor Christin; Bergerød, Inger Johanne (Chapter, 2022)Medication safety in cancer care is an inherently complex field, with a potentially high risk for adverse events. Medication harm is the most common type of adverse event in cancer patients, and is often related to both ... -
The LabPS score: Inexpensive, Fast, and Site-agnostic Survival Prediction
Nieder, Carsten; Haukland, Ellinor Christin; Mannsåker, Bård; Dalhaug, Astrid (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Objectives: To provide a widely applicable, blood-biomarker-based and performance-status-based prognostic model, which predicts the survival of patients undergoing palliative non-brain radiotherapy. This model has already ... -

Nieder, Carsten; Haukland, Ellinor Christin; Mannsåker, Bård; Dalhaug, Astrid (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background Recently, the palliative appropriateness criteria (PAC) score, a novel metric to aid clinical decision-making between different palliative radiotherapy fractionation regimens, has been developed. It includes ... -
Palliative non-small cell lung cancer treatment and end-of-life care stratified by sex and childlessness: an important interplay in unmarried patients?
Nieder, Carsten; Aanes, Siv Gyda; Haukland, Ellinor Christin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Purpose To analyze the interplay of sex and presence of children in unmarried patients with non-small cell lung cancer, because previous studies suggested sex-related disparities.

Shortened Palliative Radiotherapy Results in a Lower Rate of Treatment During the Last Month of Life
Nieder, Carsten; Haukland, Ellinor Christin; Mannsåker, Bård (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Introduction Palliative radiotherapy (PRT) during the last month of life (PRT30) should be avoided because relevant clinical benefits are unlikely to occur.
