Patient reported Health related quality of life (HRQoL).
Time frame: 3 months after treatment.
Patient reported health related quality of life is captured through a questionnaire the Generic European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) QLQ-C30. They include 5 functional scales (physical, role, emotional, cognitive and social), three symptom scales, a global health scale, and six single items. All of these scales and items measures range in score from 0 to 100. A high score on functional or global health status scale represents a high/healthy level of functioning. A high score for a symptom scale represents a high level of symptomatology.

Patient reported Health related quality of life (HRQoL).
Time frame: 3 months after treatment.
Generic patient reported quality of life is captured by The EuroQol (EQ)-5D-5L questionnaire. This includes a descriptive system questionnaire and visual analogue scale (VAS). The descriptive system scores five dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression) from 1 to 5 where 1 means having no problems, and 5 means extreme problems or unable to participate. The digits can be combined in a 5-digit code to describe the overall health status. For example, 12111. The VAS records the overall current health on a vertical visual analogue scale from 0 to 100, respectively 'the worst health you can imagine' to 'the best health you can imagine'.

Patient reported tumor specific quality of life (QoL).
Time frame: 3 months after treatment.
Disease-specific patient reported quality of life is captured by a tumor specific EORTC QLQ questionnaire. (Brain-BN20, Breast-BR23, Bladder-BLM30, colorectal-CR29, Gynecological-CX24\&VU34, Head and Neck-HN35, liver-HCC18 (primary) and -LMC21 (metastasis), lung-LC13, esophageal-OES18, prostate-PR2, pancreas-PAN26).

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
