QOL | Arm A | Arm B | p-value | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
n | median (range) | n | median (range) | ||
QOL overall | 11 | 0 (−5, 1) | 25 | −1 (−6, 5) | 0.26 |
Fatigue | 11 | 1 (−3, 7) | 25 | 0 (−4, 8) | 0.75 |
Rash | 10 | 0 (−4, 2) | 25 | 0 (−5, 10) | 0.095 |
Diarrhea | 11 | 2 (−10, 8) | 25 | 1 (−8, 8) | 0.99 |
Hands and feet syndrome (skin or pain change) | 11 | 2 (−1, 8) | 25 | 4 (−7, 10) | 0.42 |
Note: The positive value of QOL overall score represents better QOL after 4 cycles of treatment; the positive value of fatigue, rash, diarrhea, and hands and feet syndrome score represents worse syndrome at cycle 4. N represents sample size.
