abstract = {Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is highly relevant
in cancer and often assessed with the EORTC QLQ-C30.
Cardiovascular HRQoL in cancer can be measured with the ESC
HeartQoL questionnaire. We compared these instruments and
examined their prognostic value.Summary scores for EORTC
QLQ-C30 (0-100 points) and HeartQoL (0-3 points)
questionnaires were prospectively assessed in 290 patients
with mostly advanced cancer (stage 3/4: $81\%,$ 1-year
mortality: $36\%)$ and 50 healthy controls (similar age and
sex). Additionally, physical function and activity
assessments were performed.Both questionnaires demonstrated
reduced HRQoL in patients with cancer vs controls (EORTC
QLQ-C30: 67±20 vs 91±11, p<0.001; ESC HeartQoL: 1.8±0.8
vs 2.7±0.4, p<0.001). The instruments were strongly
correlated with each other (summary scores (r=0.76),
physical (r=0.81), and emotional subscales (r=0.75, all
p<0.001)) and independently associated with all-cause
mortality (best cut-offs: EORTC QLQ-C30 <82.69: hazard ratio
(HR) 2.33, p=0.004, HeartQoL <1.50: HR 1.85, p=0.004 -
adjusted for sex, age, left ventricular ejection fraction,
NT-proBNP, hsTroponinT, cancer stage/type), with no
differences in the strength of the association by sex
(p-interaction>0.9). Combining both questionnaires
identified three risk groups with highest mortality in
patients below both cut-offs (vs. patients above both
cut-offs: HR 3.60, p<0.001). Patients with results below
both cut-offs, showed higher NT-proBNP and reduced physical
function and activity.EORTC QLQ-C30 and ESC HeartQoL -
assessing cancer and cardiovascular HRQoL - are both
associated with increased mortality in cancer patients, with
even greater stratification by combing both. Reduced HRQoL
scores were associated with elevated cardiovascular
biomarkers and decreased functional status. This article is
