Abstract
e24128Background: Oncologists’ perceptions of patients’ performance status (PS) and general health are key determinants of eligibility for chemotherapy and clinical trials. We sought to examine correlations between patient-reported and clinician-rated Eastern Clinical Oncology Group PS (ECOG-PS) and general health status (EQ5D) in women with incurable recurrent gynecologic cancers, as well as step counts from accelerometry as a proxy for objective PS. Methods: We used baseline data from a randomized trial evaluating a mobile health intervention that collects patient-reported outcomes and passive smartphone data and provides tailored symptom management advice. Half of participants also received a wearable accelerometer. We calculated Pearson correlations to determine agreement between ECOG-PS and EQ-5D assessments in patient-clinician dyads. We also calculated the median (IQR) step …
