Abstract 1755
Background
PAN26 was developed as a supplement to the EORTC QLQ-C30 to assess pancreatic cancer–specific health-related quality of life (HRQoL) issues. Despite its use in clinical trials, PAN26 MID has not been established. In undertaking the most comprehensive evaluation to date of PAN26’s measurement properties in patients with surgically resected pancreatic cancer receiving adjuvant therapy, we used distribution-based minimum detectable change (MDC) and anchor-based methods to determine PAN26 scale MIDs using the data collected during the Adjuvant Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Clinical Trial (APACT).
Methods
PAN26 and QLQ-C30 scores were assessed in 12-week intervals at screening (BL), middle and end of treatment, and up to 2.5 years of follow-up. MDC values were calculated via BL standard deviation (SD) and reliability-biased standard error of measurement approaches. Anchor-based values were determined via a linear mixed model in which QLQ-C30 overall health (OH; Item 29) served as a serial patient global impression of severity anchor for predicting PAN26 scores. Pattern-mixture models (PMM) were fit to assess the impact of attrition on estimates.
Results
MDC values were in the 12 to 15 range (Table). These findings were consistent with SD-based values inferred from earlier studies, although our results extended to standalone items. Anchor-based MIDs were almost twice as sensitive as MDC, with values in the 5 to 9 range (PMM values almost identical). Anchor values could not be inferred for the PAN26 bowel, hepatic, and healthcare scales and gas item due to their low (r < 0.30) correlation with OH.Table:

Conclusions
The MID estimates for PAN26 subscales can help clinicians and researchers interpret the changes in HRQoL and determine sample sizes in the design of future clinical trials.
