Quality of Life for Patients With Breast Cancer Brain Metastases and Leptomeningeal Disease

15 de junho de 2026 atualizado por: University of California, San Francisco

Prospective Evaluation of Quality of Life in Patients With Breast Cancer Brain Metastases and Leptomeningeal Disease

Central nervous system (CNS) metastases including breast cancer brain metastases (BCBMs) and leptomeningeal disease (LMD) are common affecting up to 30% of patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). The goal of this research is to understand symptom burden and quality of life trajectories in this population and how treatments guide care management decisions.

Visão geral do estudo

Descrição detalhada

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To describe overall symptom experience and quality of life (QOL) over time in breast cancer patients with brain metastases and/or leptomeningeal disease.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the impact of cancer-directed treatments over time on quality of life, physical function, and cognitive function in patients with breast cancer brain metastases and/or leptomeningeal disease including:

  • The impact of whole brain radiation versus stereotactic radiosurgery on QOL.
  • The impact of brain metastasis surgical resection on QOL.
  • The impact of CNS-penetrant systemic therapies on QOL.
  • The impact of craniospinal irradiation and other treatment modalities for LMD on QOL.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the interaction between QOL and demographics, social determinants of health, and control of systemic disease in patients with breast cancer brain metastases and/or leptomeningeal disease.

OUTLINE:

Participants will be given questionnaires and followed for at least 3 years but may withdraw at any time.

Participants with Metastatic Breast Cancer
This is a prospective cohort study of patients with Stage 4 (metastatic) breast cancer with brain metastases and/or leptomeningeal disease who are receiving treatment for cancer or cancer-related disease. Through a series of surveys, participants will be asked about race/menopausal status, social determinants, symptom experience, and cognitive and physical functioning. Participants will be asked to update surveys every 3 months. Additional demographic and on-investigational / routine care treatment information will be obtained from the Electronic Medical Record (EMR).
Participants can complete questionnaires online, via tablet in clinic, or via paper and pencil in clinic

  • Health-Related Quality of Life (HrQOL) questionnaires
  • Symptom Questionnaire
Data will be collected from the participants electronic medical record

Descrição da medida
Prazo
Overall changes in reported symptom burden
Prazo: Every 3 months for up to approximately 5 years.
Participants will complete the 22-item MD Anderson Symptom Inventory for Brain Tumor (MDASI-BT) questionnaire which is designed to capture the severity of various symptoms related to cancer (13 items) and symptoms specifically related to brain cancer (9 items) during the last 24 hours. Participants responses are given on a scale from 0 (not present) to 10 (worst possible). The higher the score the more severe the symptom. A subset of the most prevalent or severe symptoms reported will be used to represent symptom burden.

Every 3 months for up to approximately 5 years.
Frequency of moderate to severe symptoms
Prazo: Every 3 months for up to approximately 5 years
Participants will complete the 22-item MD Anderson Symptom Inventory for Brain Tumor (MDASI-BT) questionnaire which is designed to capture the severity of various symptoms related to cancer (13 items) and symptoms specifically related to brain cancer (9 items) during the last 24 hours. Participants responses are given on a scale from 0 (not present) to 10 (worst possible). The higher the score the more severe the symptom. The frequency of responses to the MDASI-BT items with a score of 4 or higher will be reported as a percentage of the total number of participants.
Every 3 months for up to approximately 5 years
Overall change in scores on reported symptom interference (MDASI-BT)
Prazo: Every 3 months for up to approximately 5 years
Participants will complete the 6-item section of the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory for Brain Tumor (MDASI-BT) questionnaire which is designed to capture the interference of cancer symptoms during the last 24 hours. Participants responses are given on a scale from 0 (no interference) to 10 (interfered complete) and address general activity, mood, work/housework, relationships, walking, and enjoyment of life. The higher the score the more the symptom interfered with daily life.

Every 3 months for up to approximately 5 years
Change in the Mean Scores on the Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS) - Cognitive Function Short Form 8a Questionnaire over time
Prazo: Up to 5 years.
This 8-item questionnaire to measure cognitive function based on responses to statements about how the participants feel regarding various cognitive tasks in the past 7 days with responses ranging from 5="Never" to 1="Very Often", and a total raw score ranging from 8 - 40, which are converted to a scaled T-score (range 22.41 to 63.48) with lower scores indicating a greater impairment of cognitive function.
Up to 5 years.
Change in the Mean Scores on the Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS) - Physical Function Questionnaire over time
Prazo: Every 3 months for approximately 5 years.
This 6-item questionnaire to measures self-reported capability to physically function in the context of cancer and/or cancer treatment experiences, based on responses to statements about how the participants feel regarding various physical tasks in the past 7 days with responses ranging from 5="Without difficulty" to 1="Unable to do", or 5="Not at all" to 1="Cannot do" and a total raw score ranging from 6 - 30, which are converted to a scaled T-score with a range from 20.8 -59), with lower scores indicating a greater impairment of physical function.
Every 3 months for approximately 5 years.
