1601PClinical predictors for analgesic response to radiotherapy in patients with painful bone metastases

The study presents new data showing that presence of soft tissue expansion predicts RT response and that CRP is not significantly associated with analgesic RT response.Clinical trial identificationNCT02107664 (Date of registration April 8, 2014).Legal entity responsible for the studyP ål Klepstad.FundingThe European Palliative Care Research Centre (PRC).DisclosureAll authors have declared no conflicts of interest.
