What was measured
The EORTC QLQ-30 contains 30 questions that incorporate 5 functional scales (physical functioning, role functioning, emotional functioning, cognitive functioning, and social functioning), 1 global health status scale, 3 symptom scales (fatigue, nausea and vomiting, and pain), and 6 single items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties). The participant answers questions about their health during the past week. There are 28 questions answered on a 4-point scale where 1 = Not at all (best) and 4 = Very Much (worst) and 2 global health quality of life (QOL) questions answered on a 7-point scale where 1 = Very poor and 7 = Excellent. Raw scores are transformed into a 0 to 100 scale via linear transformation. Lower scores in symptom scales indicate better quality of life.
Analysis population: Participants in the ITT Analysis Set who completed the EORTC QLQ-C30 at Baseline
Groups in this outcome
Zanubrutinib
Participants received 160 mg zanubrutinib orally twice daily until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, initiation of alternative anticancer therapy, investigator/Sponsor decision, need for prohibited medication, study withdrawal, or pregnancy.
Ibrutinib
Participants received ibrutinib 420 mg orally once daily until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, initiation of alternative anticancer therapy, investigator/Sponsor decision, need for prohibited medication, study withdrawal, or pregnancy.
Group identifiers and denominators belong to this outcome only. They may differ in another outcome or in safety reporting.
