Longitudinal quality of life (QOL) assessment is infrequently made in adjuvant therapy for colorectal cancer (CRC). This analysis aims to assess QOL and quality adjusted survival (QAS) in patients receiving adjuvant 5-FU for stage II and III CRC. We performed a multicentre study in which 801 patients were randomised to 6 months of bolus 5-FU/leucovorin (LV n = 404) or 12 weeks of protracted venous infusion (PVI) 5-FU (n = 397). There were significant differences in the deterioration of QOL scores at week 2 with bolus 5-FU/LV compared to PVI 5-FU (P < 0.001), coinciding with toxicity peak during the first cycle. Following week 12, global QOL recovered to baseline when PVI 5-FU was stopped but this was delayed with bolus 5-FU/LV until completion at week 24. QOL scores significantly improved in both arms during follow-up (P < 0.001) and reached a plateau by year 1 without incremental improvement between years 2 and 5. There was a trend towards better QAS with PVI 5-FU. Twelve weeks of adjuvant PVI 5-FU was associated with significantly better QOL during treatment and faster time to recovery compared to 6 months of bolus 5-FU/LV.
