About this study

Official title: An Observational Study Assessing the Health Status in Women With Early Breast Cancer, Treated With Breast Conserving Surgery and Radiotherapy

The quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) is the outcome measure of choice in England and Wales for National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE). To be able to conduct a cost utility analysis, QALY data is required. This can either be collected within trial or published data can be used.

In the United Kingdom (UK) there is no up to date QALY data for women with early breast cancer treated with surgery followed by radiotherapy. The OSTaRa Study aims to provide up to date QALY data for women in this cohort.

Being tested

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Questionnaire

    Each subject will complete an EQ5D questionnaire, to allow Quality of Life to be calculated. The EQ5D uses a Likert scale which assesses five states (mobility, self care, usual care, pain and discomfort and anxiety and depression) at five different levels - none, slight, moderate, severe or unable to perform. Levels are coded 1-5 and a total score is then generated. Results for the demographic measured will be displayed as a percentage value.

    Measured: 12 months
