Objectives
Primary objectives
To establish a disease database of laryngeal cancer patients in order to:
- Assess the difference in quality of life, disease specific and overall survival between treatment modalities in early and advanced laryngeal cancer.
- Assess the impact of patient-derived clinical features and tumour factors on treatment outcome (oncological, laryngeal function, quality of life, swallow, voice) in early and advanced laryngeal cancer and use this to develop a risk prediction tool.
Secondary objectives
- To establish consent processes to allow researchers to re-contact patients for data on long term outcome and survivorship.
- Using the data, establish an initial risk communication tool in the disease.
- To develop the pathway for routine tissue and radiological scan collection for future studies, mapped to outcome.
