Common questions
What does Performance Status ECOG / Karnofsky do?
Use to record performance status, convert between the two scales, and gauge tolerance of systemic therapy.
How is the result calculated?
ECOG 0 = KPS 90–100, 1 = 70–80, 2 = 50–60, 3 = 30–40, 4 = 10–20, 5 = 0. NCCN commonly uses ECOG ≤ 2 or KPS ≥ 60 as the systemic-therapy threshold.
Is this a substitute for clinical judgement?
No. All results are decision-support only, for licensed clinicians. They must be individualized to the whole patient and the latest guideline version.
