Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- PROMIS (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System) Global 10 Health Questionnaire to assess change from baseline. [Once a week for 3 months]
A summary indicator of health status by assessing 5 domains: physical function, fatigue, pain, emotional distress, and social health to assess change from baseline for improvement or decline.
- Symptom Assessment Questionnaire to assess change from baseline. [Once a week for 3 months]
A symptom is a sensation or perception of change related to health function experienced by an individual. Symptoms such as fatigue, pain and nausea can be classified according to their severity and perceived impact on function as a change from baseline for improvement or decline.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Cancer antigens blood markers to assess change from baseline. [Once a week for 3 months.]
Breast: CA 27.29, serial monitor report; carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), serial monitor report; lipid-associated sialic acid (LASA), serial monitor report. Lung: Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), serial monitor report; lipid-associated sialic acid (LASA), serial monitor report; neuron-specific enolase (NSE), serial monitor report. Prostate: Prostate-specific antigen (PSA), serial monitor report; prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP), serial monitor report as a change from baseline for improvement or decline.
