Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess quality-of-life of men with prostate cancer. "Quality-of-life" means how you feel about your life as a result of your disease and its treatment. The investigators hope that this questionnaire will help show how prostate cancer treatments affect quality-of-life. It will help doctors and future patients to make better treatment choices. Some men may wish to have a more demanding treatment with a higher risk of harmful effects. Others may prefer a treatment that will have the smallest effect on their quality-of-life.

This questionnaire will help us measure these effects and decide which is the best treatment for a given patient.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Interview

The phone interview will consist of the following items from the follow up questionnaire; 14, 16, 20, 32, 33, 46, 47, 60, and 65. An additional component of this study would be dispensing the HRQOL tool to long-term survivors 10 years or greater after the completion of therapy. The long term QoL study will be a cross-sectional assessment measuring HRQOL in prostate cancer survivors, free of disease at least ten years post-treatment. Patients will complete a questionnaire by selfreport focusing on assessment of HRQOL.

BEHAVIORAL

survey instruments using Web-Based Data Collection System (WBDC) survey content

The content of the WBDC questionnaire will be similar to the paper form, no alteration in the wording, the order, or the formate of the items will be done. In addition, at the time of each outpatient clinic visit to MSKCC, these subjects will be able to login to WBDC using a computer located in the patient waiting-area, and enter their responses to the different items of the questionnaire if their clinic visit corresponds to any of the study time points 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 24, 36, and 48 following treatment). An additional component of this study would be dispensing the HRQOL tool to long-term survivors 10 years or greater after the completion of therapy. The long term QoL study will be a cross-sectional assessment measuring HRQOL in prostate cancer survivors, free of disease at least ten years post-treatment. Patients will complete a questionnaire by selfreport focusing on assessment of HRQOL.
