Meta-core outcome set for randomized trials and clinical practice for curative surgical oncology: patient and healthcare consensus statement
Key Points
To define a standardized set of outcomes for surgical oncology to enhance consistency in research and clinical practice.
Developed a meta-core outcome set through collaboration among patients and healthcare professionals.
Conducted discussions to reach a consensus on which outcomes are essential for evaluating surgical oncology.
Established a standardized outcome set applicable to various types of cancer surgeries.
Consensus was achieved among stakeholders, ensuring the outcomes reflect patient and clinical priorities.
Abstract
This meta-COS for surgical oncology offers a standard set of outcomes to be used in surgical oncology studies and clinical practice, regardless of cancer type.
