Clinical Trial Summary

This study investigates how the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory questionnaire modified for use with adolescents performs in adolescent patients with cancer. Conducting interviews with adolescents about the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory may help researchers improve the questionnaire to better understand the symptoms experienced by 13-17 year old patients with cancer.


Clinical Trial Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To examine how the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI) modified for use with adolescents (adolescent version) performs in adolescent patients who have various cancer types, who have undergone various treatments, and who have varying levels of symptom burden. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To explore the feasibility of various methods for collecting MDASI (adolescent version) data (for example, paper-and-pencil forms, face-to-face and telephone interviews, electronic data capture methods such as electronic tablets or automated telephone systems. II. To evaluate the MDASI (adolescent version) as an estimate of functional status and quality of life in adolescent cancer patients. OUTLINE: Part 1: Patients complete the MDASI questionnaire and then complete a cognitive debriefing interview regarding its comprehensibility, the acceptability of each item, and whether any important symptoms are missing from the questionnaire. Part 2: Patients complete the MDASI questionnaire twice (1-7 days apart). Approximately 1 week after beginning standard of care treatment, patients complete the MDASI questionnaire at 4 additional time points, each 1 week apart. Patients may also complete a cognitive debriefing interview regarding its comprehensibility, the acceptability of each item, and whether any important symptoms are missing from the questionnaire. ;
