- W2103784384 abstract "Purpose/Objective(s)Cancer survivors may be at significant risk for late effects after radiotherapy therapy. The impact of toxicity after cancer treatment on survivors is not well described. This Internet based study evaluates patient perceptions of toxicity after radiation therapy.Materials/MethodsPatient-reported data was gathered via a convenience sample frame from cancer survivors voluntarily utilizing a publically available, free, Internet-based tool for creation of survivorship care plans. Available at www.livestrongcareplan.com and through the OncoLink website, the tool allows survivors to enter data regarding diagnosis, demographics, and treatments, and provides customized guidelines for future care. During use of the tool, survivors are queried regarding late effects associated with specific treatments, and asked to answer “yes,” “no,” or “I don't know.” They are also asked to score GI and GU toxicity using modified versions of validated scales. All data have been maintained with institutional review board approval.ResultsOf 3223 cancer survivors answering queries regarding late effects, 1785 (55%) had undergone radiotherapy (78% women, 88% Caucasian). Their most common diagnoses were breast (53%), lymphoma/leukemia (10%), GI (8%), and GU (8%) cancers. Median time from diagnosis was 2.3 years. Of the whole cohort, the most common late effects reported were concern regarding cognitive changes (58%), sexual changes (55%), changes in texture/color of skin (50%), and chronic pain/numbness/tingling (39%).
