Life After Prostate Cancer Diagnosis

Project overview

The Life After Prostate Cancer Diagnosis (LAPCD) study is a UK-wide patient-reported outcomes study designed to generate information to improve the health and well-being of men with prostate cancer. Postal surveys will be sent to prostate cancer survivors (18–42 months postdiagnosis) in all 4 UK countries (n=∼70 000), and qualitative interviews will be undertaken with a sample of men who complete the survey across the UK (n=∼150) along with a small number of partners/spouses (n=∼30)
