Stem Cell Transplant Complications, Survivorship
Conditions
Brief summary
Survivors of allo HCT can experience long-term survival, which is however limited by a number of late effects. These will be addressed in AlloLife to improve quality of life (QoL) and survival.
Detailed description
The complex intervention in AlloLife will consist of a set of technically-supported tools that will enable active care management through the patient and treating physician to improve QoL.
Interventions
Patient-centered, technology-supported integrated survivorship- and care management

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Quality of Life as measured by the FACT-BMT score | 12 months | Change in QoL measured by the FACT BMT score on a continuous scale. The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Bone Marrow Transplant (FACT-BMT) as initially developed by McQuellon RP et al. BMT 1997. It scales between 0 (zero) and 196 on a continuous scale, where higher values refer to higher Quality of Life. |
