Figure 3. Sensitivity of BOMET-QoL-10 to change in EORTC QLQ-BM22 scores. Corresponding changes in BOMET-QoL-10 mean scores are shown for patient groups who showed increased, stable (unchanged scores), or decreased EORTC QLQ-BM22 scores between the last available assessment and T0. An increased EORTC QLQ-BM22 score was defined as a ≥ 20 points higher score than T0, and a decreased score was defined as a ≥10 points lower score as compared to T0.
