AbstractThe change of target variables in palliative cancer treatment led to a new evaluation of quality of life. Its use as a target variable to discriminate different therapies is problematic. Investigations with a patient-questionnaire assessing quality of life showed that the validity of this term is difficult to judge. At present it should be used in clinical research as an accompanying variable only.
