aLIVE: Observational Study of Quality of Live in Patients With Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is an observational, post-authorization, prospective follow-up, multi-centre, national study designed to describe the spectrum of health-related quality of life in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer previously untreated with chemotherapy This study is designed to observe patients treated in routine clinical practice, without the exclusion limitations of a clinical trial. Patients will be enrolled in 7 Spanish sites. In all cases, the decision to treat patients will be performed prior to the decision to include the patient in the study.
Given the observational nature of the study, follow-up of patients will be performed according to standard clinical practice of each site.

Pateints with metastatic pancreatic cancer Patients diagnosed with metastatic pancreatic cancer confirmed histologically or cytologically, who will be treated with chemotherapy as first-line treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer. This study is designed to observe patients treated in routine clinical practice, without the exclusion limitations of a clinical trial. The decision to treat patients will be performed prior to the decision to include the patient in the study. The follow-up of patients will be performed according to standard clinical practice of each site |
