Study summary

To evaluate long-term quality of life (QoL) and participant reported symptom burden in disease-free survivors who have undergone cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) at MD Anderson, with primary emphasis on overall (composite) QoL as measured by validated instruments.

Read the detailed description
  1. To explore patterns and variability in QoL across individual instrument subscales (e.g., EORTC QLQ-C30 functional and symptom domains; HADS anxiety and depression subscales).
  2. To examine associations between QoL outcomes and clinical/treatment-related variables, including time since surgery.
  3. To identify participant-reported survivorship needs, gaps in care, and potential targets for survivorship-focused interventions (e.g., development of a survivorship clinic), with particular emphasis on qualitative responses.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
