What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To examine cross-sectional long-term differences in health outcomes after treatment end.
Time Frame: Two years after study entry.
Indicated by selected key-QoL outcomes (i.e. Fatigue, Cognitive and Role functioning scales from the EORTC-QLQ-C30 questionnaire), between APL patients treated with ATRA plus chemotherapy versus patients treated with ATRA plus ATO.
Two years after study entry.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To examine long-term differences in health outcomes after treatment end indicated by all QoL outcomes not considered in primary objectives, between APL patients treated with ATRA plus chemotherapy versus patients treated with ATRA plus ATO.
Time Frame: Two years after study entry.
(including the functional status and symptomatology).
Two years after study entry.
To investigate clinical, laboratory, socio-demographic and QoL factors predicting long-term health/QoL outcomes of APL patients after treatment end.
Time Frame: Two years after study entry.
(as reported at 3rd consolidation).
Two years after study entry.
To compare the long-term QoL profile, after treatment end, of APL patients treated with ATRA- chemotherapy and ATRA-ATO with that of their peers in the general population.
Time Frame: Two years after study entry.
Compared with the general population (without cancer).
Two years after study entry.
To assess and compare the cumulative incidence and types of physician-reported late adverse effects (e.g. cardiac function) and secondary cancer, between randomized treatment groups.
Time Frame: Two years after study entry.
(ATRA plus chemotherapy versus ATRA plus ATO).
Two years after study entry.
To assess and compare the prevalence of long-term patient-reported comorbidities and symptoms, after treatment end, between randomized treatment groups.
Time Frame: Two years after study entry.
(ATRA plus chemotherapy versus ATRA plus ATO).
Two years after study entry.

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To assess long-term QoL patterns over time of long-term APL survivors.
Time Frame: Two years after study entry.
After treatment end, overall and by treatment group.
Two years after study entry.
