Randomized controlled trial of maintaining quality of life during radiotherapy for advanced cancer
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: Psychosocial interventions often address only 1 domain of quality of life (QOL), are offered to patients with early‐stage cancer, do not include the caregiver, and are delivered after cancer treatment has been completed. METHODS: In the current randomized controlled trial, 131 patients with advanced cancer who received radiotherapy and their caregivers were randomly assigned to either a 6‐session, structured, multidisciplinary intervention arm or a standard care arm. The average age of the patients was 58 years, the majority were male (63%), and tumor types varied (gastrointestinal [37%], brain [22%], head and neck [16%], lung [13%], and other [12%]). The six 90‐minute sessions addressed the 5 domains of QOL: cognitive, physical, emotional, social, and spiritual. The in‐person intervention was followed by 10 brief telephone counseling sessions that took place over the next 6 months. RESULTS: Of the 117 patients who completed the study, overall QOL (assessed by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy‐General [FACT‐G]) at week 4 was significantly higher in the intervention group (n = 54) compared with the standard arm control group (n = 63) (75.2 vs 68.7; P = .02). The 10 brief telephone contacts did not appear to impact QOL because at week 27 the groups had identical QOL (means of 77.6 and 77.7, respectively). There was no effect of the intervention noted on caregiver QOL. CONCLUSIONS: Participating in a 6‐session multidisciplinary intervention was found to be effective in maintaining the QOL of patients with advanced cancer who were actively receiving radiotherapy. The QOL and symptom burden of this population is striking, making it important to identify effective QOL strategies to implement in conjunction with cancer care.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
