Colorectal cancer (CRC) affects men and women of all racial and ethnic groups and accounts for more than 600,000 deaths per year, globally. Current treatment options may involve surgery, chemotherapy (both adjuvant and neoadjuvant), radiation therapy, and palliative care, each with trade-offs between disease management and patients' quality of life. Unfortunately, significant disparity exists in the quality of care and there is a need for standardization to ensure high-value health care for all patients. This study evaluates the introduction of a Value-Based Health Care (VBHC) patient-centered framework in CRC treatments. VBHC is an innovative approach that aims to improve health care by identifying and systematically measuring both medical and patient-reported health care outcomes and costs. By applying sets of disease-specific outcomes measurements, health care providers (HCP) can compare care strategies and make informed choices with regard to optimization of care, necessary investments and possible cost reductions. The adoption of a VBHC patient-centered approach may have a significant impact on therapeutic areas constituting a major disease and cost burden for the global health care, such as CRC. It has the potential to improve cancer care planning, monitoring, and management of patients, by promoting better communication and shared decision making by patients and HCP. A patient-reported outcome measurement (PROM) is defined as any report about a health condition and its treatment that comes directly from the patient. The use of a tailored pathway including PROMs improve both quality of life (QoL) and survival in cancer patients. Another essential requirement of VBHC approach is the outcome monitoring, to allow HCP accessing to evidence-based, simplified information on the hospital clinical practice and potentially increase health value for both patients and HCP. For patients with CRC, the International Consortium for Health Outcomes Measurement (ICHOM) developed a comprehensive patient-centered outcomes measurement set that could be used in the clinical practice to monitor patients' status. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the introduction of a VBHC approach in CRC treatments, using a validated VBHC set of clinical outcomes and PROMs, to understand which practice would be most effective in achieving patient-centered care. The underlying hypothesis is that a periodic analysis of these outcomes could increase health value for both patients and HCPs.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Assess the most accurate trend of the Global Health Status (Quality of Life evolution) over time in colorectal cancer patients evaluated by the EORTC-QLQ-C30 questionnaire. | The EORTC-QLQ-C30 (European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer - Quality of Life Questionnaire - C30) is composed of both multi-item scales and single-item measures. These include five functional scales, three symptom scales, a global health status / Quality of Life (QoL) scale, and six single items.
The global health status / Quality of Life scale runs from 1 (very poor) to 7 (excellent) and the others from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much). All of the scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. A high scale score represents a higher response level. Thus: a high score for a functional scale represents a high / healthy level of functioning, a high score for the global health status / QoL represents a high QoL, but a high score for a symptom scale / item represents a high level of symptomatology / problems. |

Secondary | Investigate predictors of clinical and PROMs outcomes in a real-life context | Predictors of clinical outcomes and PROMs will be investigated by performing univariate and multivariate statistical analysis, when appropriate | Baseline; Month 1 follow-up; Month 6 follow-up; Once a year, for maximum 3 years, from the second postoperative year | |
Secondary | Assess the variation of clinical outcomes and PROMs | Control charts will be used to monitor clinical outcomes and PROMs in both Variable data charts as individual, average and range charts and Combination Charts (x-bar standard deviation, process capability, etc.).
Control charts will have the following features: Data points could be averages of subgroup or individual measurements plotted on the x and y axis and joined by a line. Time is always on the x-axis. The Average or Center Line is the average or mean of the data points and is drawn across the middle section of the graph. The Upper Control Limit (UCL) is drawn above the centerline. This is equal to 3 or 2 times of the standard deviation line. The Lower Control Limit (LCL) is drawn below the centerline. This is equal to 3 or 2 times of the standard deviation line. |
Baseline; Month 1 follow-up; Month 6 follow-up; Once a year, for maximum 3 years, from the second postoperative year | |
Secondary | Evaluate the impact of a VBHC approach on patients | The impact of a VBHC approach on patient will be qualitatively evaluated by collecting and analysing the annual survey responses from patients on their perception and satisfaction of a VBHC approach: scale from "very satisfied" to "not satisfied". | Once a year, for maximum 3 years, from the second postoperative year | |
Secondary | Evaluate qualitatively the impact of a VBHC approach on involved HCPs by collecting and analysing the annual interview responses from HCPs | The impact of a VBHC approach on HCPs will be qualitatively evaluated by collecting and analysing the annual interview responses from HCPs concerning the satisfaction (scale from "very satisfied" to "not satisfied"), the introduction of new recommendations during the follow-up period (e.g., addition or deletion of a specific follow-up visit) and knowledge in clinical practice (e.g., inclusion of pain specialists or psychologists). Survey data will be reported using summary statistics and supporting graphical representations. | Once a year, for maximum 3 years, from the second postoperative year | |
Secondary | Measure healthcare costs during the study period | At the hepato-digestive pole, Strasbourg's University Hospital, healthcare costs will be measured by applying the Time-driven Activity-based Costing (TDABC) methodology. Other eventual additional participating sites will be free to apply the same methodology or to measure costs derived from traditional hospital cost accounting systems. An assessment of the outcomes of the two different approaches could be made between different methodologies | Baseline; Month 1 follow-up; Month 6 follow-up; Once a year, for maximum 3 years, from the second postoperative year |
