Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a cross-sectional cohort study of metastatic GastroIntestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST) patients on imatinib for ≥ 10 years included in EORTC trial 62005-STBSG entitled "Phase 3 randomized, intergroup, international tiral assessing the clinical activity of STI-571 at two dose levels in patients with unresectable or metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) expressing the KIT receptor tyrosine kinase (CD117) - NCT00685828". With this study, the aim is to identify patient characteristics, tumour characteristics, treatment factors and quality of life outcomes associated with prolonged treatment with imatinib and/or prolonged survival. This observational study will further help to put in place a questionnaire to evaluate patients quality of life with prolonged imatinib treatment, that will then be used in a prospective study.
