Resumo

In advanced cancer, when cure is impossible, symptoms should be the focus of attention. We report the first prospective, systematic analysis of the severity of 37 symptoms in 1000 patients with advanced cancer, using the Paradox relational database. Pain, easy fatigue, and anorexia were consistently among the 10 most prevalent symptoms associated with cancer at all sites. When pain, anorexia, weakness, anxiety, lack of energy, easy fatigue, early satiety, constipation, and dyspnea were present 60%-80% of patients rated them as moderate or severe, i.e. of clinical importance. The most common symptoms were also the most severe. In general the same symptoms were clinically important at most primary sites. Clinically important dyspnea, hoarseness, hiccough, and dysphagia were more common in men; anxiety, nausea, vomiting, and early satiety in women. Clinically important dyspepsia, nausea, and vomiting occurred more frequently in gynecological cancers.
