Overall survival prediction in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer treated with radium-223

Low basal Hb, hight basal ALP, bone marrow involvement and an altered ECOG were the main factors that decreased OS in our patients. 223Ra should be considered relatively early in the course of treatment.
