The baseline characteristics of the entire cohort included the following: median age (59\u2009years old), female sex (45.8%), adenocarcinoma (47.7%), and poorly differentiated or undifferentiated tumors (92.1%). For the inpatient cohort, the most common sites where cancer spread included the lymph nodes (41.8%), bone (22.0%), liver (20.1%), and peritoneum\/retroperitoneum (16.0%). A total of 77.4% and 58.2% of patients were treated with local therapy and systemic therapy, respectively. Four prognostic factors, including liver metastasis, peritoneal\/retroperitoneal metastasis, number of metastatic sites (\n                      <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009\u2265\u20092), and systemic treatment, were independently associated with overall survival. Additionally, 24.8% (79\/318) of patients received molecular testing, including PD\u2010L1, human papillomavirus, genetic variation, and 90\u2010gene expression tests for diagnosis or therapy selection.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Cancer of unknown primary remains a difficult cancer to diagnose and manage.
