Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (8)
PROMIS-29 + 2 profile for adult self-report
Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS)-29 +2 profile. The PROMIS-29 plus 2 Profile v2.1 is designed for adults ≥18 years of age and includes 29 items across the following domains: depression, anxiety, physical function, pain interference, fatigue, sleep disturbance, ability to participate in social roles and activities, cognitive function on a scale of 1 (worst) to 5 (best), and pain intensity (on a scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable).
Up to 4 months
PROMIS pediatric profile for adolescent self-Report and Caregiver-Proxy
The PROMIS Pediatric-25 Profile v2.0 is designed for self-report by children ages 8-17; It is designed for completion by a parent proxy on behalf of children ages 5-17. These assess depressive symptoms, anxiety, physical function-mobility, pain interference, fatigue, peer relationships, on a scale of 1 (worst) to 5 (best) and pain intensity scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain you can think of). The content of the pediatric and parent-proxy forms are identical, except for minor modifications to account for differences in responders (e.g., "I felt worried" vs "My child felt worried").
Up to 4 months
PROMIS pediatric sleep disturbance for Adolescent Self-Report and Caregiver-Proxy
The PROMIS sleep disturbance short form includes 4 items that assess difficulty falling asleep, sleeping through the night, problems with sleep, and trouble sleeping on a scale of 1 (worst) to 5 (best). In order to achieve similar domain coverage across the entire sample, the PROMIS Pediatric and Parent-Proxy Sleep Disturbance Short Form 4a will be administered to participants under the age of 18 and caregivers of children with PROS, since unlike the adult PROMIS Profile, the pediatric and parent-proxy PROMIS profile does not include a sleep disturbance domain.
Up to 4 months
EQ-5D-5L for Adult self-report
The EuroQoL-5 Dimension (EQ-5D-5L) is a simple, generic measure that includes only 5 basic domains common to many generic health status measures: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. The form used in this study (EQ-5D-5L) has 5 response categories for each dimension (no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems). The EQ-5D-5L was developed for completion by adults
Up to 4 months
EQ-5D-Youth for adolescent Self-Report and Caregiver-Proxy
The EQ-5D-Y is based on the EQ-5D-3L but assesses the 5 dimensions using language that is more suitable to children/adolescents (the 5 dimensions are: mobility, looking after oneself, doing usual activities, having pain or discomfort, and feeling worried, sad, or unhappy). The 5 dimensions are answered using a 3-point response scale, where higher scores indicate better outcome. The EQ-5D-Y also has a proxy version that assesses the same domains as the EQ-5D-Y.
Up to 4 months
Brief Pain Inventory for Adult Self-Report and Adolescent Self-Report
The BPI is a multi-item assessment of pain. This assessment includes 2 domains that, together, assess the overall pain experience: pain severity and pain interference. Three BPI items will be administered as part of the current study: one item assesses pain at its worst over the past 24 hours , one item assesses where on the body pain is experienced, and one item assesses the type of pain that is experienced. The worst pain item includes an 11-point response scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as bad as you can imagine). A diagram of the human body (front and back) is provided for responders to mark the areas of pain and the area that hurts the most. A series of descriptors (e.g., burning, tiring, and numb) will be provided for the responders to indicate whether each adjective applies to their pain. As this endpoint has not been adapted for proxy report, it will only be completed by adolescents and adults who are able to self-report.
Up to 4 months
Global impression of symptom severity
A single item will be fielded to all 3 groups of participants, asking for an assessment of the overall severity of symptoms experienced. This item includes 5 response options: no symptoms, mild, moderate, severe, and very severe. Minor modifications are made to the item wording to account for differences between adult/child self-report and caregiver proxy-report (e.g., changing "your overall symptoms" to "your child's overall symptoms").
Up to 4 months
Modified PROMIS dyspnea severity for adult Self-Report and Adolescent Self-Report
Two items will be used to assess a specific symptom: shortness of breath. These items are based on 2 items in the PROMIS Dyspnea Severity item bank, but with a 24-hour recall: * Shortness of breath when walking up 10 stairs * Shortness of breath when talking while walking The 2 PROMIS dyspnea severity items will be answered using a 5-point response scale: No shortness of breath, Mildly short of breath, Moderately short of breath, Severely short of breath, I did not do this in the past 24 hours. There is no proxy version of the PROMIS Dyspnea Severity item bank, and thus the dyspnea severity items will not be administered to caregiver participants of the current study.
Up to 4 months
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Description of change in HRQoL, symptom severity, and pain as a result of treatment
4 months
Study Arms (2)
PROS patients treated with alpelisib
Patients with PROS who receive treatment with alpelisb
PROS patients not treated with alpelisib
Patients with PROS who don't receive treatment with apelisib
Interventions
There was no treatment allocation. Patients administered alpelisib by prescription that were involved in Novartis' alpelisib managed access program were enrolled
Eligibility Criteria
Three groups of of participants were included: * Adults with PROS who are capable of independently completing the required Clinical Outcome Assessments (adult self-report) * Adolescents, between the ages of 12 and 17 (inclusive), with PROS who are capable of independently completing the required Clinical Outcome Assessments, as assessed by a legal guardian (adolescent self-report). * Caregivers of children/adolescents with PROS (caregivers proxy-report). these must be parents or legal guardians whose children are between the ages of 5 and 11, or adolescents between the ages of 12 and 17 who are unable to independently complete the required Clinical Outcome Assessments.
