dc.description.abstract | Seit Mitte der 1990er Jahre gibt es
Hinweise darauf, dass tumormodifizierende Substanzen wie
Chemotherapeutika und später auch sog. Targeted Therapies positiv
auf die Symptomkontrolle und Lebensqualität von Patienten mit weit
fortgeschrittenen inkurablen Tumorerkrankungen einwirken. Die
bisher in Studien zumeist als sekundäre Endpunkte dokumentierten
Verbesserungen der Symptomkontrolle sind in der vorliegenden
Untersuchung prospektiv an einer Fallserie von Palliativpatienten
untersucht worden (Fragebögen, semistrukturierte Interviews,
Akteneinsicht). Auswertungskriterien waren die Häufigkeit des
Einsatzes, klinischer Benefit, Kosten, Zeitaufwand und
Therapieentscheidungen. Tumorspezifische Substanzen sind bei elf
von 551 in der Erhebungsphase stationär betreuten Patienten der
Palliativstation mit dem primären Ziel der Symptomkontrolle
angewandt worden (2,0%). Es ließ sich ein klinischer,
symptombezogener Benefit für fünf von elf Patienten mit
fortgeschrittenem Tumorleiden nachweisen. Durch die Therapie
profitierten fünf Patienten nicht, ein weiterer Patient nur
fraglich. Der zusätzliche Zeitaufwand gestaltete sich für sechs von
elf Patienten durch einfache Applikation sowie geringe Toxizität
minimal. Maximal sind sechs Tage monatlich investiert worden. Die
mediane Überlebenszeit lag bei 84 Tagen, die Medikamentenkosten
lagen fallspezifisch zwischen 320,27 Euro bis hin zu 90.664,45 Euro
(durchschnittlich bei 15.014,12 Euro). Bei ihrer

dc.description.abstracteng | Since the mid-1990s it has been assumed
that tumor-modifying substances such as chemotherapeutics and –
later on – so-called Targeted Therapies have positive effects on
the control of symptoms and the life quality of patients with
advanced incurable tumor diseases. By employing a prospective
series of case studies (by evaluating surveys, semi-structural
interviews and clinical follow-ups) this study analyzed these
improvements of the symptom control which up to now have mostly
been documented as secondary endpoints. The criteria of evaluation
included frequency of medication, clinical benefit, costs,
expenditure of time and the decision-making in regard to the
therapies applied. With the primary goal of control of symptoms,
eleven out of 551 inpatients have been treated with tumor specific
substances within the time of surveying (2.0 %). The findings
demonstrate that there is a clinical, symptom-correlated benefit
for five of these eleven patients with advanced tumor diseases. In
contrast, five patients did not benefit at all from the therapy,
while this is somehow questionable in the case of one patient. The
additional amount of time has been minimal in the case of six (out
of the eleven) patients due to simple application and minor
toxicity. At the maximum, six days per month have been invested.
The median of survival time was 84 days, the costs of medication
varied from 320,27 EUR to 90.664,45 EUR. In their decision-making
concerning the therapies applied, the treating physicians
prioritized a rapid progress, the distinctive wish of the patient,
a simple application, and positive experiences which have been made
previously in the application of chemotherapeutics in comparable
clinical situations. The relevance of these different factors in
the specific decision-making processes analyzed by this study
therefore mirror the complexity of physicians' decision-making
processes in general. The findings of the study hint on the fact
that life quality of palliative patients might be improved by the
specific application of Targeted Therapies and conventional
chemotherapeutics which at the same time have to be combined with a
specialized palliative care treatment in a multidisciplinary team.
However, to utilize the findings of this study for future therapy
concepts throughout the palliative care sector in general, further
research is needed. | de |
