NCT00581724

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to find out about the pain and quality of life of individuals who are adult cancer survivors. By quality of life, we mean how you are feeling about different aspects of your life, including your physical health, your emotional health, and your ability to carry out daily activities. We are interested in people's opinions about their quality of life, as well as the factors that affect their quality of life. In addition, learning about pain will help us to develop new services for adult cancer survivors.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Descriptive statistics will be generated to describe the prevalence of pain and its psychosocial correlates.

    1 to 10 years post-treatment completion

Study Arms (1)

1

First 50 breast cancer survivors and then after demonstrating feasibility of the study design in the first 50 participants, recruitment will be opened to the other services Colorectal, Genitourinary, Head and Neck, and Thoracic. Participants will be recruited in allotments of 50 patients from each service.

Behavioral: Telephone interview or self report survey.

Interventions

We estimate that the completion time for the telephone interview or self-report survey will be 45-60 minutes.
