Effective management of fatigue in cancer patients requires a clear delineation of what constitutes nontrivial fatigue. We defined numeric cutpoints for fatigue severity based on functional interference and described fatigue’s prevalence and characteristics in cancer patients and survivors. In a multicenter study, outpatients with breast, prostate, colorectal, or lung cancer rated fatigue severity and symptom interference with functioning on the M. D. Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI) 0–10 scale. MDASI ratings of symptom interference guided selection of numeric rating cutpoints between mild, moderate, and severe fatigue levels. Regression analysis identified significant factors related to reporting moderate/severe fatigue. The statistically optimal cutpoints were ≥4 for moderate fatigue and ≥7 for severe fatigue. Moderate/severe fatigue was reported by 45% (983/2177) of patients undergoing active treatment and was more likely to occur in patients taking strong opioids (odds ratio [OR], 3.00), had poor performance status (OR, 2.00), had >5% weight loss within 6 months (OR, 1.60), were taking >10 medications (OR, 1.58), had lung cancer (OR, 1.55), or had a history of depression (OR, 1.42). Among survivors (patients with complete remission or no evidence of disease, and no current cancer treatment), 29% (150/515) had moderate/severe fatigue that was associated with poor performance status (OR, 3.48) and a history of depression (OR, 2.21). This study statistically defined fatigue-severity categories related to significantly increased symptom interference. The high prevalence of moderate/severe fatigue in both actively treated cancer patients and survivors warrants the promoting of routine assessment and management of patient-reported fatigue.
