Measure selection for an electronic patient-reported outcome (ePRO) system for CAR T-cell therapy patients: a modified Delphi consensus study.

Background: Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cell therapies are effective for treating haematological cancers but carry risks of toxicity and substantial symptom burden. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) could significantly enhance clinical management for patients undergoing these treatments. However, guidance on selection of PRO measures for monitoring adverse event and quality of life after CAR T-cell therapy is limited.

A toolkit for capturing a representative and equitable sample in health research.

Research participants often do not represent the general population. Systematic exclusion of particular groups from research limits the generalizability of research findings and perpetuates health inequalities. Groups considered underserved by research include those whose inclusion is lower than expected based on population estimates, those with a high healthcare burden but limited research participation opportunities and those whose healthcare engagement is less than others.
