Summary

Aims of this study are to describe the variation of QoL (Quality of Life) during the clinical management of low-grade lymphoma in elderly subjects and to identify the most important factors at diagnosis and during treatment with an impact on QoL (Quality of Life).

Detailed description

This is a prospective, multicenter, non-interventional study aiming at investigating on the changes in QoL (Quality of Life) during the clinical management of low-grade lymphoma in elderly subjects and to possibly identify the most important factors at diagnosis and during treatment with an impact on QoL (Quality of Life). The study plans to enroll 150 patients with a local histologically confirmed diagnosis of indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma fulfilling all the inclusion/exclusion criteria who provide written informed consent will be included in the study. Any type of treatment is allowed by the study (immunotherapy, immunochemotherapy at full or reduced dose, radiotherapy). All patients must undergo Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) before starting any protocol treatment. Baseline, post-treatment and follow-up instrumental assessments and response evaluation is done as part of the routine clinical management for patients with indolent NHL (Non Hodgkin Lymphoma) . Response evaluation and all other assessments planned for the EOT (end of treatment) should be planned also in case of early withdrawal, according to clinical practice. HRQoL (Health-related Quality of Life) evaluation will be done at time of informed consent form signature prior to treatment start, at the end of the treatment (ranging from 1 month to 6 months according to the duration of the treatment) and after 1 year from the start of the therapy. QoL (quality of life) assessment includes all scales of the EORTC-QLQ-C30 (European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of life Questionnaire-Core 30) and the FACT-Lym-LymS (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Lymphoma - lymphoma-specific symptoms questionnaire).
