Abstract
At group level, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with IDH-mutant diffuse glioma grade 2 and 3 seems to remain stable over time. However, clinical experience indicates that there are patients with unfavorable outcomes on key HRQoL subdomains. The aim of this longitudinal population-based study, following patients over a period of 12 months from surgery, was to describe individual level data on global health status and fatigue score and explore possible predictors of deterioration.
All patients undergoing surgery for presumed glioma grade 2 or 3 at the Sahlgrenska University Hospital during 2017-2022, were screened for the study. Patients were invited to complete the EORTC core questionnaires and brain module at baseline, 3 and 12 months postoperatively. Data is reported with respect to minimal clinical important difference (MCID).
We included 51 patients with IDH-mutant diffuse glioma grade 2 or 3. There was no difference in group level data of either global health status or fatigue score from baseline to the 12-month follow-up (p-value >0.05). Unfavorable individual changes (beyond MCID) in global health status and fatigue score were observed in 12 and in 17 patients respectively (23.5% and 33.3%). A lower proportion of proton radiotherapy was found in patients with unfavorable changes in fatigue (10/15, 66.7%) compared to all other patients undergoing radiotherapy (22/23, 95.7%, p-value 0.03).
Deterioration beyond MCID was seen in approximately one-third of patients. Changes in global health status could not be predicted, but changes in fatigue may be influenced by tumor-targeted and symptomatic treatment.
期刊介绍:
Neuro-Oncology Practice focuses on the clinical aspects of the subspecialty for practicing clinicians and healthcare specialists from a variety of disciplines including physicians, nurses, physical/occupational therapists, neuropsychologists, and palliative care specialists, who have focused their careers on clinical patient care and who want to apply the latest treatment advances to their practice. These include: Applying new trial results to improve standards of patient care Translating scientific advances such as tumor molecular profiling and advanced imaging into clinical treatment decision making and personalized brain tumor therapies Raising awareness of basic, translational and clinical research in areas of symptom management, survivorship, neurocognitive function, end of life issues and caregiving
