About this study

Official title: Bladder Cancer Prognosis Programme (Incorporating SELENIB Trial) [QOL]

RATIONALE: Studying quality of life in patients with bladder cancer may help determine the long-term effects of bladder cancer and may help improve the quality of life for patients in the future.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying quality of life in patients with bladder cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To study the effects of recurrence and progression on health-related quality of life (HRQL).
  • To study the effects of repeat cystoscopy on HRQL.
  • To study the patients' assessments of a hypothetical prognostic model and how this affects their preference for the mode of surveillance.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Quality-of-life questionnaires developed by the European Organization for Research and Treatment for Cancer (EORTC) will be used. The EORTC QLQ-BLS24 with 24 questions specific to non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer and the EORTC QLQ-BLM30 with 30 questions specific to muscle-invasive bladder cancer will be combined and used in conjunction with the general cancer questionnaire QLQ-C30.

Assessments using the QLQ-C30 will be made at baseline in the entire cohort of patients. Follow-up assessments using the QLQ-C30, QLQ-BLS24, and QLQ-BLM30 167 will be made at first routine follow-up and annually until the end of study.

Peer Reviewed and Funded or Endorsed by Cancer Research UK.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Quality of life as measured by EORTC QLQ-C30, QLQ-BLS24, and QLQ-BLM30 questionnaires. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
