Overview

This study examines patient reported outcomes post radiation therapy or chemoradiotherapy patient care in patients with oropharyngeal cancer. This study may help researchers learn about the symptoms that patients with oropharyngeal cancer have after completing radiation therapy.

Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To provide evidence of clinically relevant symptoms for integrating into a user-friendly, automated pathway for real-time tracking and management of symptoms during post radiation therapy (RT)/chemoradiation (CRT) for oropharyngeal cancer (OPC).

OUTLINE

Patients complete questionnaire over 10-20 minutes at baseline, 2 times every week during weeks 1-8 of radiation therapy, and at the end of the study.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who were seen for new patient evaluation at clinics and HNC centers at MD Anderson Cancer Center
  • Adult patients with OPC (> 18 years old) who have been enrolled under PA14-0947
