What was measured

EORTC QLQ-C30 is a questionnaire that rates the overall quality of life in cancer participants. The first 28 questions use a 4-point scale (1=not at all to 4=very much) for evaluating function (physical, role, social, cognitive, emotional), symptoms (diarrhea, fatigue, dyspnea, appetite loss, insomnia, nausea/vomiting, constipation, and pain) and financial difficulties. The last 2 questions use a 7-point scale (1=very poor to 7=excellent) to evaluate overall health and quality of life. Global scores are converted to a score of 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating improved health status. The mean baseline EORTC QLQ-C30 score is presented.

Analysis population: All participants with non-missing questionnaire assessments at baseline.

Groups in this outcome

Pembrolizumab + Axitinib

Participants received pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks PLUS axitinib 5 mg orally twice daily.

Sunitinib

Participants received sunitinib 50 mg orally once daily for 4 weeks and then were off treatment for 2 weeks.
