Clinical Trial Summary

In the LIFT study 2000 cancer patients will be recruited at 6 months after diagnosis and extensively surveyed over five years on factors that are associated with fatigue.


Clinical Trial Description

The LIFT study aims to comprehensively investigate characteristics, determinants, and long-term course of fatigue. In addition, information shall be gained on the current state of fatigue treatment and care in Germany and on the needs of affected patients.

Data will be collected by mailed or online questionnaires at 6, 9, and 12 months as well as 2, 3, 4 and 5 years post-diagnosis from 2000 cancer patients. Besides questionnaires on socio-demographic, clinical and patient reported outcomes, saliva samples will be collected in order to gain new insights into biological mechanisms. Moreover, detailed data on screening, diagnosis and counseling as well as therapies offered and administered to reduce fatigue will be surveyed, as well as the patients' state of knowledge, perception and prevailing needs regarding fatigue. Tumor and cancer therapy data will be extracted from the Epidemiological Cancer Registry.

The results of the LIFT study aim to contribute to an improved, evidence-based and individualized treatment to avoid and ease cancer-related fatigue and will further promote patient-oriented offers and treatments. ;
