- Abbreviations: OS, overall survival; PFS, progression-free survival;HR, hazard ratio; CI, confidence interval; *Variables with a significance of p < 0.05 at univariate analysis were included in the multivariate analysis. The following variables were evaluated: age, gender, Karnofsly Perforance Status (KPS) score, histology, extracranial disease status, systemic therapy, number of metastases, time to brain metasases development, conformity index, and irradiated volumes
