Development of an Integrated Program of Health Related Quality of Life Research for the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project

Abstract

This Career Development Award (CDA) was specifically intended to support Dr. Day in the development of a Health-Related Quality of Life Program (HRQL) for the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project (NSABP) . There are now a total of 3 ongoing NSABP HRQL studies in the process of data collection (P-2, B-32, B-33) . Two studies which were underway at the last reporting date have now been closed to recruitment (B30, C-O7) . For the past 12 months of the CDA, Dr. Day has had reduced responsibility for day-to-day monitoring of ongoing protocols and has served as a consultant for study development. This has permitted him to devote an increased amount of time in months 37-48 of the grant to the completion of manuscripts and reports. A no cost 12 month extension of the award has been approved enabling Dr. Day to prepare additional analyses and publications on NSABP quality-of-life data.
