Summary

This is a prospective, multicentre study, considered as " non-RIPH ("Recherche n'Impliquant pas la Personne Humaine - Research that does not involve humans ". Indeed, the patient's participation in the study and the completion of the various questionnaires has no impact on patient's safety and is not likely to change patients' management. Patients accepting to take part to an early phase trial will be proposed to participate in the PALPHA-1 trial. They can accept or refuse to have palliative supportive care.

The main objective of this study is to assess the reasons for accepting and refusing early palliative care in patients included in an early phase clinical trial. The secondary objectives will enable to describe and analyze the number (effective) and the rate (%) of acceptance and/or refusal of early palliative support, to assess patients' understanding and perception of the " combined " management by comparing the semantic content of the patient-investigator ecological interaction during the proposal for inclusion in the trial (i.e. what was explicitly said), with that of the semi-structured post-consultation inclusion interviews ( ie what the patients understood, perceived), to compare the quality of life and the anxiety-depression of patients according to their acceptance or refusal of the mixed care at the inclusion and at the end of the early phase trial, to compare the clinical, medical and socio-demographic characteristics of the patients, the overall survival of patients according to their acceptance or refusal of the combined management and finally for the patients accepting the Palliative Care Management (PCM), to describe throughout the study, the patients' compliance to palliative supportive care undertaken.
