Overview on the current routine treatment of anemia in cancer patients in Germany

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in hemoglobin levels and QoL12 weeks per patient

Effectiveness of different antianemic treatments is investigated by measuring increase of hemoglobin levels and QoL (FACT-An and FACT-GP).

Baseline in hemoglobin (before treatment) is compared with hemoglobin levels after treatment. Each patient is followed for a maximum of 12 weeks to obtain data about the course of the treatment.
