BACKGROUND: In this study, our aim was to describe quality of life (QoL) prevalence and heterogeneity in QoL reporting in colorectal cancer phase III trials. METHODS: We included all phase III trials evaluating anticancer drugs in colorectal cancer patients published between 2012 and 2018 by 11 major journals. RESULTS: Out of the 67 publications identified, in 41 (61.2 %) QoL was not listed among endpoints. Out of 26 primary publications of trials including QoL among endpoints, QoL results were not reported in 10 (38.5 %). Overall, no QoL data were available in 51/67 (76.1 %) primary publications. In particular, in the metastatic setting, QoL data were not available in 12/18 (66.7 %) trials with primary endpoint overall survival, and in 20/29 (69.0 %) trials with other primary endpoints. CONCLUSIONS: QoL was absent in a high proportion of recently published phase III trials in colorectal cancer, even in trials of second or further lines, where attention to QoL should be particularly high.
背景:在这项研究中,我们旨在描述结直肠癌 III 期临床试验中生活质量(QoL)的流行情况和报告中的异质性。
方法:我们纳入了 2012 年至 2018 年间 11 个主要期刊发表的所有评估结直肠癌患者抗癌药物的 III 期临床试验。
结果:在确定的 67 篇文献中,有 41 篇(61.2%)未将 QoL 列为终点。在 26 项将 QoL 作为终点的试验的主要出版物中,有 10 项(38.5%)未报告 QoL 结果。总体而言,51/67(76.1%)项主要出版物中没有 QoL 数据。特别是在转移性环境中,18 项以总生存期为主要终点的试验中有 12 项(66.7%)和 29 项以其他主要终点为试验中有 20 项(69.0%)没有 QoL 数据。
结论:在最近发表的结直肠癌 III 期临床试验中,很大一部分试验没有 QoL 数据,即使是二线或进一步治疗的试验,也应该特别关注 QoL。
