NCT01275534

Brief Summary

In the study PROVIVO, a patient reported outcome instrument consisting of items from the PRO-CTCAE item bank measuring symptom experience of long-term survivors after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT) will be developed. The instrument development is based on cognitive patient interviews, a survey of hematology experts and a literature review. In a subsequent cross-sectional study phase, the instrument will be validated in a sample of 300 allogeneic stem cell recipients and by the use of additional self report instruments it will be possible to explore how subjective symptom experience, problems in self-management and presence of late effects are connected.
