What was measured
The M.D. Anderson Dysphagia Inventory (MDADI) is a validated, self-administered questionnaire established as the best measure of dysphagia-related quality of life in HNC patients. (Carlsson S, et al Dysphagia 2012; 27: 361-369). MDADI has two summary scores: 1) global (1 item) and 2) composite (19 items). Each item is scored on a 5 point Likert scale (strongly disagree, disagree, no opinion, agree, strongly agree). The composite MDADI score is a weighted average of the physical, emotional, and functional subscale questions. Scores are normalized to range from 20 (extremely low functioning) to 100 (high functioning). A minimal clinically important within group difference was a 10% change from baseline.
Analysis population: The analysis population is comprised of all randomized participants. At each timepoint, a subset of participants were evaluable for quality of life assessment.
