Measuring and analysing quality of life in cancer clinical trials: a review.

P M Fayers, D R Jones.   

Abstract

After brief consideration of the definition of the term 'quality of life', methods previously adopted and problems encountered in assessing and evaluating quality of life in clinical studies of cancer are reviewed. Desirable properties of any such assessment methods and approaches to the analysis of quality of life data are discussed. Illustrations are provided by reference to the methods of assessment of quality of life incorporated in two recently-initiated studies of cancer treatment.
