Patient‐reported outcomes in the Translational Breast Cancer Research Consortium

Members of the Translational Breast Cancer Research Consortium conducted an expert‐driven literature review to identify a list of domains and to evaluate potential measures of these domains for inclusion in a list of preferred measures. Measures were included if they were easily available, free of charge, and had acceptable psychometrics based on published peer‐reviewed analyses. A total of 22 domains and 52 measures were identified during the selection process. Taken together, these measures form a reliable and validated list of measurement tools that are easily available and used in multiple cancer trials to assess patient‐reported outcomes in relevant patients. Herein, the authors present a list of patient‐reported outcome measures for use in clinical breast cancer treatment trials. Such measures exist and can be relied upon to convey useful information.
