Health-related Quality of Life, Symptom Severity, and Pain Among Patients With PIK3CA-related Overgrowth Spectrum: A Mixed-methods Observational Study

Health-related Quality of Life, Symptom Severity, and Pain Among Patients Treated With Alpelisib for PIK3CA-related Overgrowth Spectrum: A Mixed-methods Observational Study

This was a mixed-methods observational study that incorporated both qualitative interviews and longitudinal quantitative data collection through an online survey (initial, 2 months, and 4 months).

This study collected qualitative data through interviews with patients and caregivers and qualitative data through a web-based longitudinal survey.

Both parts of the study were designed to collect information on HRQoL, symptom severity, and pain among patients with PROS who were receiving treatment with alpelisib in the US. In addition, patients who had not been treated with alpelisib also participated in the quantitative part of the study by providing data on HRQoL, symptom severity, and pain, collected from a single administration of the web-based survey.

Exclusion Criteria:

There are no specific exclusion criteria. However, participants may be excluded if the quota related to alpelisib treatment (60 treated with alpelisib; 40 not treated with alpelisib) has been achieved. For example, if 40 participants not treated with alpelisib have been recruited into the study, any additional participants not treated with alpelisib will be excluded. Patients treated with alpelisib may be similarly excluded if the quota of 60 patients has already been achieved.
