ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To evaluate prospectively asthenia and the quality of life in patients treated by stereotactic body irradiation and to determine their predictive factors. METHODS AND MATERIALS Quality of life was assessed by the EORTC QLQ-C30 and asthenia was evaluated with the Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI), on the first day (T1), last day (T2) and 1-3 weeks after the end of treatment (T3).RESULTS:
Sixty-three patients were treated with stereotactic body irradiation from February 2017 to May 2017 and 41 were included in the analysis (22 patients excluded for lack of understanding, organization, psychologic disorders or refusal). The mean number of fractions was 5 (±2). The compliance to quality of life assessment was 98%, 95% was 81% at T1, T2 and T3, respectively. An increase of asthenia and a worsened quality of life were found in 12 (29%) and 14 (34%) patients between T1 and T2. Univariate analysis demonstrated a correlation between asthenia and quality of life were correlated with performans status (P=0.03 and 0.05 respectively), hemoglobin level (p=0.01 and 0.004), albumin level (P=0.01 and 0.06), distance between home and radiotherapy department (P=0.05 and 0.02). Multivariate analysis demonstrated a correlation between female gender (P=0.012), albumin level (P<0.001), distance over 25km (P<0.001) with asthenia, and albumin level (P=0.003), hemoglobin level (P=0.004) and previous chemotherapy (P=0.003) with quality of life. No influence of stereotactic body ratiotherapy parameters was seen.CONCLUSION:
Despite hypofractionation, stereotactic body radiotherapy induced asthenia and deterioration of quality of life.Palabras clave
