e16057 Background: Testicular Germ Cell Tumor (TGCT) is a highly curable malignancy treated with surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The available literature has conflicting results on quality of life (QoL) of survivors determined using various tools. There is no Indian data on QoL among TGCT patients. Methods: The study was a prospective case-control study. EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire were administered to survivors (last treatment completed at least 2 years back) and healthy age matched controls attending the uro-malignancy clinic of AIIMS between 1st January 2017 to 31st December 2018. The functional, symptom and global QoL scales were scored as per EORTC manual and were compared with each other using student t-test and Mann-Whitney test. The data was analysed with stata v.13.0. Results: The mean scores of all domains of functional scales and global QoL of 114 TGCT survivors were significantly worse than 100 controls except role functioning and cognitive functioning (Table). The symptom scores of cases were significantly worse for each domain except insomnia and constipation (Table). There was no difference in QoL parameters between Seminoma or Non-Seminoma or different stages of GCT. Conclusions: The QoL among TGCT survivors was significantly inferior indicating the long term physical, emotional, social, sexual and financial effects of disease and its treatment on survivors. More robust tools and studies are needed to better define QoL among survivors. ± SD of Functional, symptom and Global QoL Scales) [Table: see text]
