Feasibility of Quality of Life Assessment in Patients with Lymphoma Aged ≥80 Years Receiving Reduced-Intensity Chemotherapy: A Single-Institute Study
Quality of life (QOL) must be carefully monitored in older patients with lymphoma who are suitable for chemotherapy, but few reports have assessed QOL in older patients who received reduced-intensity chemotherapy. This study investigated QOL in patients with lymphoma aged ≥80 years to clarify the feasibility of such assessments following reduced-intensity chemotherapy. QOL was prospectively analyzed (using the QOL Questionnaire for Cancer Patients Treated with Anticancer Drugs (QOL-ACD)] and the SF-36®, a comprehensive survey of patient health) among 13 patients (seven women) aged ≥80 years with lymphoma who received reduced-intensity chemotherapy at 4-week intervals at Kyushu University Beppu Hospital between June 2022 and August 2023. Patients were assessed at baseline, in the middle of the protocol, at the end of the protocol, and 6 months after the end of the protocol. The overall response rate was 69%. Almost all severe adverse events (10 patients) occurred during early cycles (cycles 1–2). Common adverse events included hematological toxicities such as neutropenia (10 patients). The daily activity (p = 0.048) and social attitude (p = 0.027) scores of the QOL-ACD and the general health perception (p = 0.044) and social functioning (p = 0.030) scores of the SF-36® were significantly improved during and after chemotherapy. Reduced-dose chemotherapy, if implemented before treatment selection, might permit evaluations of QOL in older patients aged ≥80 years; further investigation is warranted.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
