Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- To determine the factors predicting 180 days overall survival of patients with cancer that are HLH-2004/OHI+ [The participant's survival would be assessed at 180 days from the malignancy diagnosis]
The investigators will gather data on different treatments received, time to treatment, and other factors and determine which is associated with survival.
