Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recently, the foci of cancer treatment shift towards quality of life (QOL) support as well as survival benefit in patients with advanced incurable cancer. Therefore, we should develop stratification tool to assess health-related QOL, resulting in simple achievement of appropriate health-related QOL management. The results of our study indicated that cancer-related symptom scale scores (e.g. fatigue, appetite loss), assessed using the Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30), were correlated with certain cytokine levels and immunological assessment such as IFN-gamma production ability of peripheral blood may lead to stratify disease-specific health-related QOL in patients with advanced incurable cancer. We believe that these results will contribute to the development of novel symptom management strategy.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
進行がん患者において身体機能、認知機能、社会的機能、がん関連症状の尺度スコアが血清VEGFレベル、末梢血インターフェロンγ産生能と相関関係があることを見出した。QOL問診票に加えて、血清VEGFレベル、末梢血インターフェロンγ産生能を加味して患者のQOLを評価すれば、進行がんの疾患特異的なQOLを層別化することが可能となり、がん治療を行う際、QOLを維持、改善すべき対象の選択に大変有用なツールとなりうると示唆された。
