Clinical Symptoms Evaluation, Measured Using the LENT-SOMA Scale

"Evaluation of symptoms improvement using the LENT-SOMA scale (Late Effect Normal Tissue Task Force / Subjective, Objective, Management, Analytic scale).~To examine the LENT/SOMA scale prospectively using interviews and questionnaires~Assessments were made from baseline to 1, 3, 6 and 9 months of starting treatments. The acceptability and feasibility of using the scales was examined using compliance in completion of the questionnaires.~Maximum score: 36 Minimum score: 0~Questionnaires have been completed for 24 patients after treatment. Higher values represents worse outcome.~Scale categories:~Subjective: pain, nutritional problems, difficulty in mouth openning. Objective: bone exposure, trismus, Management: analgesic treatment, oral treatment, nutrition. Analytic: radiological findings." (NCT02368457)

A primary outcome of interest is the composite Subjective, Objective, Management, and Analytic (SOMA) score at 18-month follow-up visit. Maximum score is 45, with a score of 0 being ideal and representing no treatment-related side effects at the study visit. (NCT00583700)

Tissue Compliance

"Tissue compliance meter measurements of the treated breast compared to the non-treated breast were obtained at 18 months post-radiation therapy. Tissue compliance simply means how soft and pliable the breast tissue is when force is applied to it.~One physician would hold the tissue compliance meter (TCM) against the participant's skin. A standard amount of force would be applied. A second physician would read the displacement scale for a specific set of areas on the breast. The range of the scale was 0 to 60 milimeters (mm). The physician's were blineded to the participant's intervention at the time of measurement.~The final value is the difference between the untreated and the treated breast [untreated - treated]. The range of these differences was -3.3 to 7.0 mm." (NCT00583700)
