Leveraging Digital Health Solutions to Collect Patient-Reported Outcomes in Rectal Cancer
Sponsor: University of California, San Francisco
Summary
Rectal cancer care is increasingly complex and may include systemic therapy, radiation therapy, surgery, or nonoperative watch-and-wait surveillance. These treatments can have both short- and long-term effects on bowel, urinary, sexual, and stoma-related function. Prior studies have often assessed quality of life and treatment decision experiences at a single time point or after one type of treatment, resulting in limited information about how patients' experiences change throughout their course of care. This study will evaluate health-related quality of life and experiences with treatment decisions among patients with non-metastatic rectal cancer using validated patient-reported outcome measures over the course of treatment.
