Change in quality of life over time as assessed by Functional Assessment of Cancer Treatment (FACT-G) scores |
FACT-G will be used to measure change in quality of life of patient and partner from baseline (T1) to T2 (4 months post-T1), T3 (8-months post-T1), and T4 (12-months post-T1). Change from baseline is the post-Baseline values minus the Baseline value. Functional assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G) is a 27 item survey which assesses physical, social/family, emotional, and functional well being on a 5 point likert scale, with 0 indicating "not at all" and 4 indicating "very much" in response to item questions. Higher scores indicate better well-being. |
