Patient-Reported Outcome Measures of Psychosocial Quality of Life in Oropharyngeal Cancer Patients: A Scoping Review

Background: Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) patients are burdened by the effect of the disease process and treatment toxicities on organs important in everyday activities, such as breathing, speaking, eating, and drinking. There is a rise in OPSCC due to human papilloma virus (HPV)-ass...

description Background: Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) patients are burdened by the effect of the disease process and treatment toxicities on organs important in everyday activities, such as breathing, speaking, eating, and drinking. There is a rise in OPSCC due to human papilloma virus (HPV)-associated OPSCC, affecting younger and healthier patients and with a better overall prognosis. Emphasis must be shared between oncologic outcomes and the effects on quality of life. While there have been efforts to study global and physical quality of life, the impact on psychosocial quality of life has not yet been specifically reviewed. Methods: A scoping review methodology was employed to explore the emotional, social, and mental quality of life in OPSCC patients and determine the impact of HPV status or treatment modalities. Results: Eighty-seven full-text articles were evaluated for eligibility. Fifteen articles met final inclusion criteria. The majority of the studies were conducted in the United States (n = 10) and study methodology was divided between cross-sectional (n = 6), prospective (n = 5), and retrospective studies (n = 4). Four psychosocial quality of life themes were explored: the impact on mental health and emotional wellbeing, social wellbeing and function, stress, and relationship and sexual behavior. Eighteen different patient-reported outcome measures were used, including both general head and neck oncology questionnaires and symptom-specific surveys. Conclusion: There is a paucity of research regarding the effect of OPSCC on patients’ psychosocial quality of life. Learning more about this component of quality of life can guide outreach programs and multidisciplinary involvement in improving patient care.
