Miglioramento dei risultati per gli anziani sottoposti a radioterapia: studio prospettico di coorte

The purpose of this study is to improve healthcare received by people ≥ 65 years who are receiving radiation therapy (RT). The study will primarily examine patients ability to complete RT, changes in a patients' daily function and self-reported toxicities. To collect this information, study participants will be asked to complete surveys and physical and cognitive function assessments at five different timepoints in their treatment: before RT, End of RT, and at 1, 3, and 6 months follow up visits. Findings of this study will help radiation oncologists make more informed decisions for future patients receiving RT.

Misure di risultato primarie

Misura del risultato
Misura Descrizione
Lasso di tempo
Completion of Radiation Treatment
Lasso di tempo: at end of RT, average of 10 days

The number of patients who have completed their radiation therapy (RT).

at end of RT, average of 10 days
The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC-QLQ-30) Score Pre-RT
Lasso di tempo: pre-RT, time 0

EORTC-QLQ-30 Score consists of 30 items covered by 1 of 3 dimensions:

  • Global health status/quality of life (2 items) with scores ranging from 1 (Very Poor) to 7 (Excellent).
  • Functional scales (15 total items addressing either physical, role, emotional, cognitive, or social functioning), each item scores ranging from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much).
  • Symptom scales (13 total items addressing either fatigue, nausea/vomiting, pain, dyspnoea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, or financial impact), each item scores ranging from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much).

All domain scores are calculated as an average of item scores and transformed to 0 to 100 score range. A high score for a functional scale represents a high/healthy level of functioning, a high score for the global health status/quality of life (QoL) represents a high QoL, but a high score for a symptom scale/item represents a high level of symptomatology/problem.

Patient-Reported Outcomes Version of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (PRO-CTCAE) Score at Post-RT
Lasso di tempo: at end of RT, average of 10 days

Patient reported toxicity outcomes as measured using the PRO-CTCAE scale at post-RT. The PRO-CTCAE is a 5-minute survey, integrating patient perspectives into clinicians' reporting of treatment toxicity. It is validated for use in medical and radiation oncology and has revealed clinician underreporting of toxicity severity in older patients. The survey is scored on a 0-5-point scale, where higher outcomes indicate worse health outcomes.
