    Measured: Baseline up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (9)

    Fatigue will be assessed with the Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory (MFI)

    Measured: Baseline up to 3 years

  3. Cancer Worry Scale (CWS)

    8-item questionnaire will be used to assess the prevalence of cancer-specific distress in melanoma survivors and in healthy controls

    Measured: Baseline up to 3 years

  4. European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality Of Life (EORTC QLQ) module for sexual health

    Sexual health will be assessed with the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality Of Life (EORTC QLQ) module for sexual health

  7. Impact of Cancer Questionnaire (IOCv2)

    81 items that present statements regarding specific impacts of cancer to which respondents indicate their level of agreement from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). Seventy items apply to all survivors, 3 to currently employed respondents, 4 to respondents not currently partnered, and 4 to currently partnered respondents

    Measured: Baseline up to 3 years

  8. Work Ability Index questionnaire (WAI)

    13-item questionnaire developed to obtain survivors' experiences with return to work and work performance

    Measured: Baseline up to 3 years

  9. EORTC information module (EORTC QLQINFO25)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

Who may be eligible to take part?

Where is the study taking place?

What are the possible benefits and risks?

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life questionnaire (EORTC QLQ C30) (time frame: Baseline up to 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
