New study confirms link between cancer patients’ quality of life and survival – EORTC

EORTC – European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer shared an article by Luigi Limet al. on LinkedIn:

“A major new study from EORTC by Luigi Lim et al. confirms that quality of life can impact cancer patients’ survival.

  • Factors like physical function, pain, and appetite serve as crucial survival indicators.
  • Integrating patient-reported outcomes into cancer care can enhance treatment strategies and improve both survival and well-being.

This research reinforces the need for patient-centered care in oncology.
