NCT03422198 · STUDY IN CONTEXT

Short Course Vaginal Cuff Brachytherapy in Treating Participants With Stage I-II Endometrial Cancer

Draft scope assessment: narrower. Linked by condition-string match at the cancer-entity level. The study's eligibility - stage, biomarker, treatment line and prior therapy - has not been reconciled against this page's definition, so its population is narrower than this page in ways not yet recorded. The condition was transformed or resolved through the terminology hierarchy to reach this cancer type, so the link itself is a candidate a reviewer must confirm. Found by searching ClinicalTrials.gov for this cancer type, restricted to studies that have posted results to the registry. No FDA notice, FDA label or NCI summary held by this site cites this study. Because the search asked for posted results, studies without posted results were never looked for, so their absence from this page means nothing.

primary · POSTED

The European Organisation for the Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire-30 (QLQ-30) is used to evaluate quality of life in cancer patients. The questionnaire was given before and one month following treatment. The quality of life score ranges from 0-100, with higher scores indicating better quality of life. Baseline scores can be found in the Baseline Characteristics module. This outcome reports the average change from baseline to Month 1.

Five control arm participants were excluded from analysis because they did not complete the Month 1 questionnaire. One control arm participant was excluded because they did not complete the baseline questionnaire. Two experimental arm participants were excluded from analysis because they did not complete the Month 1 questionnaire.

primary · NOT_POSTED

One month post-brachytherapy, participants will be given the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT) - COmprehensive Score for financial Toxicity (COST) (FACIT-COST) questionnaire. The score range is 0-44, with higher scores indicating better financial well-being. Mean scores will be reported.

secondary · POSTED

The European Organisation for the Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire-Endometrial-24 (QLQ-EN24) was used to evaluate quality of life in cancer patients with endometrial cancers. The questionnaire was given before and one month following treatment. From this assessment, one question was selected as an indicator for this outcome, which measured whether participants felt less feminine as a result of their disease or treatment. The score ranges from 0-100, with higher scores indicating feeling less feminine. Baseline scores can be found in the Baseline Characteristics module. This outcome reports the average change from baseline to Month 1.

Five control arm participants were excluded from analysis because they did not complete the Month 1 questionnaire. One control arm participants was excluded because they did not complete the baseline questionnaire. Three experimental arm participants were excluded from analysis because they did not complete the Month 1 questionnaire.

secondary · POSTED

The amount charged to participants or their insurance in US Dollars (USD) was collected to evaluate cost of experimental versus standard of care courses of treatment. Data was collected at approximately six months after treatment.

Amount charged for procedures could not be obtained for six participants on the experimental arm.
