Measuring Health Related Quality of Life in AYAs

Optimizing Health Related Quality of Life Measurement in Adolescent and Young Adult Oncology:

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 11 Feb 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

AIM1a: AYAs with cancer experience many challenges that impact their health-related quality of life (HRQOL) but few measures adequately capture AYAs' HRQOL in valid and reliable ways. The main goal of the study is to expand the use of the Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS) to provide valid and reliable assessment of important HRQOL concerns for AYAs. The study team will do this by validating existing PROMIS measures and developing and validating new measures of financial distress, fertility/parenthood concerns, and body image concerns for AYAs with cancer. AIM1b: Investigators have developed conceptual frameworks and created item pools for body image, fertility, and financial burden domains and are ready to proceed with the next aim of our measure development work, cognitive interview testing.
