The Italian HRQoL data at 6 months is described in this report and the factors associated with HRQoL changes were determined. Methods Data were collected at baseline 3 and 6 months of treatment. HRQoL was measured using components of the 36-item Short Form Health Survey SF-36 mental component summary MCS physical component summary PCS and the European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions EQ-5D visual analogue scale VAS and health status index HSI . The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale HADS was adopted to evaluate depressive symptoms while somatic and painful physical symptoms were assessed by using the 28-item Somatic Symptom Inventory SSI-28 and a VAS. Results Of the initial 513 patients 472 completed the 3-month observation and 466 the 6-month observation. The SF-36 and EQ-5D mean SD scores showed HRQoL improvements at 3 months and a further smaller improvement at 6 months with the most positive effects for SF-36 MCS baseline 3 months 6 months and EQ-5D HSI baseline 3 months 6 months . Depression and anxiety symptoms HADS-D mean at baseline HADS-A mean at baseline consistently decreased during the first 3 months
