Quality of Life


The Quality of Life (QoL) surveys based on Global Health Status sub-score of EORTC QLQ-C30 were filled out by SARAH participants at baseline and at three-month intervals after their initial treatment.

The results underscored the benefit of SIR-Spheres® Y-90 resin microspheres on patients’ quality of life. In the Intention-To-Treat (ITT) population, the QoL was significantly better for patients who received SIRT compared to those who received sorafenib.

The results of the HCC-specific QLQ-HCC 18 questionnaire will be published separately.
