Malignant neoplasms of ill-defined, secondary and unspecified sites
This information is provided directly by researchers, and we recognise that it isn't always easy to understand. We are working with researchers to improve the accessibility of this information. In some summaries, you may come across links to external websites. These websites will have more information to help you better understand the study.
We can use questionnaires to help us understand how a patient feels about their quality of life (QOL) and experiences of care. These surveys are called Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMS).
PROMS have been used in research to understand patients quality of life. However, more needs to be done to understand the quality of life for patients in the long term following a diagnosis of cancer. To do this, we need to understand how to engage participants in this type of research so that we can deliver high volumes of PROMS responses. We will then be in a position to develop a greater understanding of quality of life in those living with and beyond cancer in the long term.
We also do not know what services patients use in the community to help them manage the long-term effects of their cancer or its treatment with the aim of improving their quality of life.
Using a digital survey tool, we hope we can run a project that will help us understand more about the lives of patients after treatment for cancer. We plan to see which PROM allow participants to express their quality of life as rated by the participants. We also want to study how we can keep the amount of time and effort needed to complete the questionnaires as low as possible.
All patients over the age of 16 who have had any type of cancer in the past can take part. Patients will access the survey at a time that suits them using a digital link. They can complete the survey once or if they chose, a second time 12 months later.
Start dates may differ between countries and research sites. The research team are responsible for keeping the information up-to-date.
The recruitment start and end dates are as follows:
