Quality of Life of Gynecologic Cancer Survivors


OBJECTIVES:

- Describe the significant quality of life (QOL) concerns and long term survivorship
issues of women diagnosed and treated for early stage ovarian and endometrial cancer
five or more years ago.

- Identify mechanisms which contribute to a gynecologic cancer survivorship model through
comparison and prediction of high versus low QOL associated with long term adjustment
and survivorship. Examine social support, coping efforts, self-efficacy, meaning
associated with survivorship, performance status, and age at diagnosis as potential
predictors.

- Identify and compare factors that predict high versus low QOL for women with early
stage endometrial cancer completing participation in GOG-99 clinical trial. Conduct
exploratory analysis examining long term QOL concerns of survivors randomized to
surgery arm with or without radiotherapy.

OUTLINE: Patients complete one telephone interview with a professional female interviewer.
The interview lasts approximately 60 minutes and is audiotaped.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 197 early stage endometrial cancer survivors and 114 early
stage ovarian cancer survivors will be accrued for this study within 2 years.
