Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To compare the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of a comprehensive care program (PAI) combined with chemotherapy versus those obtained in patients treated without chemotherapy in the PAI in patients with advanced cancer.;Secondary Objective: 1. To compare survival in patients treated with PAI versus that obtained in patients treated with palliative chemotherapy plus standard PAI. 2. To compare the control of symptoms, quality of life, level of satisfaction in patients treated with PAI versus that obtained in patients treated with palliative chemotherapy plus standard PAI. 3. To compare the toxicity in patients treated with PAI versus that obtained in patients treated with palliative chemotherapy plus standard PAI. 4. To compare the costs and cost-effectiveness in patients with advanced cancer treated with PAI versus that obtained in patients treated with palliative chemotherapy plus standard PAI.;Primary end point(s): Survival adjusted per quality of live al año.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: One year.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 1) Survival: number of days of life of patients from inclusion in the study. 2) Quality of life 3) Control of symptoms 4) Toxicity 5) Patient satisfaction regarding the care provided 6) Costs;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1) Survival: during the firsts year. 2) Quality of life will be measured biweekly during the first month and then monthly. 3) Control of symptoms: Every two weeks during the first month and then monthly. 4) Toxicity: Monthly. 5) Patient satisfaction regarding the care provided: Monthly t 6) Costs: at the end of study.
