evolving pathology, pointing to a guarded survival prognosis
Explanation:
This is closer to the medicalese we use here at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center.

I am not suggesting that it is any better than the medicalese used elsewhere.

Needless to say, the wordings suggested by Parrot and Carole_A are perfectly acceptable.
