Abstract

To improve precision and accuracy in the capture of symptomatic adverse events by self-report, the US National Cancer Institute has developed a library of 124 patient-reported outcome (PRO) items reflecting 78 symptomatic AEs drawn from the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). The PRO-CTCAE™ item library has been translated and linguistically validated in the Korean language. The aim of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of PRO-CTCAE-Korean.
