Change of Quality of life during 6 cycles of chemotherapy

To compare change in Quality of Life, as defined by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core-30 (EORTC QLQ-C30 (Version 3)) during 6 cycles of chemotherapy. The EORTC QLQ-C30 (Version 3) uses for the questions 1 to 28 a 4-point scale. The scale scores from 1 to 4: 1 ("Not at all"), 2 ("A little"), 3 ("Quite a bit") and 4 ("Very much"). Half points are not allowed. The range is 3. For the raw score, less points are considered to have a better outcome. The EORTC QLQ-C30 (Version 3) uses for the questions 29 and 30 a 7-points scale. The scale scores from 1 to 7: 1 ("very poor") to 7 ("excellent"). Half points are not allowed. The range is 6. First of all, raw score has to be calculated with mean values. Afterwards linear transformation is performed to be comparable. More points are considered to have a better outcome.

Time frame: Measured before and after each chemotherapy (at baseline and on average after 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 weeks after inclusion in patients with carboplatin/paclitaxel or after 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 weeks after inclusion in patients with carboplatin/doxorubicin)
