PREVAIL mCRPC survival model
PREVAIL
Compute the Armstrong 2018 PREVAIL multivariable Cox linear predictor for overall survival in chemotherapy-naïve men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer from albumin, ALP versus ULN, bone-metastasis count, hemoglobin, LDH versus ULN, NLR, pain score, liver metastases, PSA, time from diagnosis, and enzalutamide versus placebo.

What it computes
Compute the Armstrong 2018 PREVAIL multivariable Cox linear predictor for overall survival in chemotherapy-naïve men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer from albumin, ALP versus ULN, bone-metastasis count, hemoglobin, LDH versus ULN, NLR, pain score, liver metastases, PSA, time from diagnosis, and enzalutamide versus placebo.
When to use
When an agent already has those eleven caller-assigned PREVAIL Table 1 values and needs the published linear predictor, not a 1-/2-/3-year OS percent, not CAPRA, and not D'Amico groups. Not a treatment or dose order.
When not to use
- Not a medical device. Not a dose, treatment, or sequencing order. magent does not assay labs, assign pain scores, or read bone scans or other imaging.
- Chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC from the PREVAIL trial (enzalutamide versus placebo). Not hormone-sensitive disease and not post-chemotherapy CRPC. Not a nomogram total-points conversion.
- Armstrong 2018 Table 1 prints multivariable HRs. magent uses β = ln(HR). The paper's 1-, 2-, and 3-year OS percents sit on a nomogram (Figure 1 / supplementary Table S4) without a printed baseline survival S0 in the main text, so this tool emits the linear predictor only.
- Low, intermediate, and high groups in that paper were tertiles of the training-set risk score. Those tertile cut-points were not printed as numbers and are not invented here.
- ALP below ULN, LDH below ULN, NLR <2.5, bone metastases <10, pain 0-1, and no liver metastases are caller-assigned flags. magent does not apply an institutional ULN or count metastases.
Formula
lp = ln(0.71)*albumin_g_dl + ln(0.79)*alp_below_uln + ln(0.68)*bone_mets_lt_10 + ln(0.85)*hemoglobin_g_dl + ln(0.67)*ldh_below_uln + ln(0.69)*nlr_lt_2_5 + ln(0.77)*pain_0_to_1 + ln(0.49)*no_liver_metastases + ln(1.23)*ln(psa_ng_ml) + ln(0.997)*months_since_diagnosis + ln(0.68)*treatment_enzalutamide; Armstrong 2018 Table 1 multivariable HRs, β = ln(HR); A versus B codes A as 1; booleans contribute β when true else 0; no printed S0; not 1-/2-/3-year OS percents; not nomogram points; training-set tertiles unpublished as numeric cutoffs; chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC PREVAIL; magent does not read bone scans

Worked example
Favorable PREVAIL profile, albumin 4.0, hemoglobin 13.0, PSA 20, 60 months, enzalutamide
Given:
albumin_g_dl=4.0alp_below_uln=truebone_mets_lt_10=truehemoglobin_g_dl=13.0ldh_below_uln=truemonths_since_diagnosis=60nlr_lt_2_5=trueno_liver_metastases=truepain_0_to_1=truepsa_ng_ml=20.0treatment_enzalutamide=true
- all protective flags true; albumin 4.0 g/dL; hemoglobin 13.0 g/dL; PSA 20.0 ng/mL; months 60; enzalutamide true
- β = ln(HR) from Armstrong 2018 Table 1; booleans contribute β when true
- lp = ln(0.71)*4.0 + ln(0.79) + ln(0.68) + ln(0.85)*13.0 + ln(0.67) + ln(0.69) + ln(0.77) + ln(0.49) + ln(1.23)*ln(20.0) + ln(0.997)*60 + ln(0.68)
- linear_predictor = risk_score, 6 decimals; not a survival percent
Same profile with any liver metastases
Given:

- same labs and flags as the favorable example except no_liver_metastases false (drops ln(0.49))
- linear_predictor is the Table 1 LP, 6 decimals; not a tertile band

Bulk (POST)
POST the same path with a JSON items array. The first item is the GET unit; each additional item is $0.002. Invalid items return HTTP 400 before settlement.
- 1 to 25 items. Each item uses the same keys as the GET query parameters.
- POST of 1 item costs the same as GET. Lists longer than 25: chunk into multiple POSTs. Extra items still execute; do not pad dummy rows.
- The first invalid item fails the whole request (index in the 400 JSON). You are not charged.
- HTTP 200 is {count, path, items}. Each items[i] is the GET 200 body for that row.
- Catalog misses (empty matches, found=false) stay paid 200s inside that slot.
- x402 resource URL is this path plus n and body_sha256. Browsers that prefer text/html get the same paywall as GET; Pay retries POST with the same items.

- CAPRA — Apply Cooperberg 2005 Table 1 CAPRA points from caller-assigned preoperative PSA, Gleason primary/secondary, clinical T (t1/t2/t3a), percent positive biopsies, and age, and return the 0-10 score, Table 4 Kaplan-Meier band, and Table 4 5-year recurrence-free survival point estimate. Not a diagnosis.
- D'Amico — Apply the D'Amico 1998 JAMA clinically localized three-group rule to caller-assigned clinical T (t1c, t2a, t2b, t2c), Gleason sum 2-10, and PSA ng/mL, and return risk low, intermediate, or high. Does not assay PSA, assign Gleason, or compute CAPRA or NCCN groups.
Payment
Unpaid requests return HTTP 402 even if query parameters or POST items are missing or invalid, so CDP and agents can index the path. After a PAYMENT-SIGNATURE, invalid params return HTTP 400 JSON before settlement. magent does not charge. Fix the params, then request a new 402 quote for that complete URL. Catalog misses (empty matches, found=false) are valid paid 200s. Unpaid valid requests return HTTP 402 with a base64
PAYMENT-REQUIRED
header. HTTP 503 is not a new quote: retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Full handshake
and shared payment errors: Payments.
Stdio MCP: /docs/mcp.
Guarantees
- HTTP 402 is unpaid, including a missing query. After PAYMENT-SIGNATURE, invalid parameters return HTTP 400 before settlement. You are not charged. HTTP 402 never includes the tool JSON.
- exact: settlement finishes before the tool (paymentFlow upfront). batch-settlement: verify/deposit before the tool; chargedCumulativeAmount commits after HTTP 2xx. Uncertain or failed settlement fails closed (HTTP 503). Retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE.
- HTTP 402 is unpaid only. Do not sign a second authorization because of a 503.
- Execution is timeout-bounded and concurrency-capped.
- Calculator inputs are stored encrypted for allowlisted operators (Magent Console). They are not in public logs, SSH lookups, catalog, or rollups. Request logs store path without query.
