DESIGN: Single arm, unicentric, prospective observational study. METHODS: EXPECT questionnaire was designed to capture preferences and expectations of patients undergoing palliative chemotherapy.

Ten patients are undergoing chemotherapy for solid tumors who fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria self‑administered the EXPECT questionnaire in regional language. After filling this questionnaire, they self‑administered quick questionnaire‑10 (QQ‑10). SPSS version 16 (IBM New York) was used for analysis. Completion rate of EXPECT questionnaire was calculated. The feasibility, face validity, utility and time taken for completion of EXPECT questionnaire was also assessed. RESULTS: The completion rate of this questionnaire was 100%. All patients completed questionnaire within 5 min. The QQ‑10 tool confirmed the feasibility, face validity and utility of the questionnaire. CONCLUSION: EXPECT questionnaire was validated in the regional language, and it’s an effective tool for capturing patient’s preferences and expectation from chemotherapy.en_US
