Patterns of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in a diverse group of gynecologic cancer survivors.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Racial and ethnic disparities in patient-reported outcomes (PROs) among gynecologic cancer survivors are not well studied. We evaluated whether individual-level characteristics were associated with PROs in diverse gynecologic cancer survivors.
