ANALYSIS I. INTRODUCTION In early 2012, the Lymphoma Coalition launched an on-line global survey to its 54 member organizations and their local members to help them gain a better understanding of and determine the accuracy of what they believe are the following growing concerns affecting lymphoma patients around the world: A. A general lack of understanding and awareness of the signs and symptoms of an increasingly complex disease on the part of both patients and healthcare professionals that can typically result in late diagnosis ; B. Misunderstanding about clinical trials as an effective option to treatment; and C. A quality of life being experienced by lymphoma patients that requires improvement.

ANALYSIS I. INTRODUCTION - Continued Through a better understanding of these issues and their ability to paint a picture of and share the results with its member organizations, friends and partners, healthcare professionals, government, and the public, the Coalition is better equipped to educate the lymphoma community and develop advocacy platforms for change thereby having a positive effect on the lives of lymphoma patients everywhere. This report identifies specific results for the Australian lymphoma population. With this information, patient organizations in Australia can be better equipped to serve the needs of the local community.* * NOTE: Readers should be cautious in making comparisons between 2010 and 2012 results. 2010 results are included in this report only to show the difference in demographics between 2010 and 2012 surveys and should not be interpreted to indicate any improvement or decline in what patients have experienced between those 2 years. The reason for this is the following: Approximately 78% of respondents in 2012 were diagnosed prior to 2010, and as such their responses reflect their experiences as they were over 2 years ago, and therefore do not indicate any improvement or deterioration in experience over the last 2 years. We were however for the Patient understanding and awareness at diagnosis about lymphoma question able to compare the awareness of patients diagnosed prior to 2010 (from both the 2010 and 2012 surveys) to patient awareness for those diagnosed after 2010. The results of that analysis are included in this report. Due to time and funding constraints this analysis was not performed for other questions on the survey. However in 2014 we plan to extend this type of analysis to provide improvement/decline analysis for all of the areas surveyed.

ANALYSIS II. SURVEY RESULTS Demographics Total response rate: A total of 1606 individuals answered this year s Global Patient Survey, including respondents from 51 countries around the world. Respondent Demographic Profile: Australia had the fourth highest survey participation rate, with 103 responses or 6% of the total. 72% of all Australian respondents were patients. Of those, 40% were females. Survey respondents had the following age profile: o 10-17 (0%), o 18-29 (5%), o 30-45 (15%), o 46-65 (57%), and o 65+ (23%).

ANALYSIS II. SURVEY RESULTS Demographics Continued Respondents to the survey had the following types of lymphoma: o Follicular (24%) o T-Cell (15%), o Hodgkin (21%), o DLBCL (2% versus 11% globally), o Waldenstrom s (4%), o Other indolent NHL (9%), o Other Aggressive NHL (8%), o CLL/SLL (2%), o MALT/Marginal Zone (0%), o Burkitts (3%), and o Mantle Cell (3%).

ANALYSIS II. SURVEY RESULTS Demographics Continued Hodgkin accounted for the largest proportion of lymphomas for 18-29 year olds (60%), and 53% in the 30-45 age group. The disease accounted for only 12% of all lymphomas in the 46-65 age category, and 17% for 65+ year olds. Respondents to the survey were in the following stages of their patient journey: o 56% were in remission (versus 48% globally), o 16% were in the diagnosis stage (versus 22% globally), o 14% had relapsed, and o 15% were treatment free. 74% of patients were either satisfied or very satisfied with the diagnosis experience they had in relation to the medical care they received (versus 66% globally and 25% of patients in 2010).

ANALYSIS A. AWARENESS The Lymphoma Coalition and its members in Australia have an opportunity to continue to play an instrumental role in raising awareness about lymphomas with World Lymphoma Awareness Day to the general public, but also to play a more active role in the education of patients and the healthcare community so that more lives can be saved. Although awareness about lymphomas amongst the general public in Australia is poor, there are encouraging signs that awareness and understanding about lymphoma has improved since 2010, and that more Australian patients than global ones are visiting their doctors for signs and symptoms earlier on. Understanding and awareness about lymphomas is also low within the healthcare community as shown by the rate of misdiagnosis, improper medication prescription, and the time taken for an accurate diagnosis.

ANALYSIS Survey Findings - Patient Awareness In 2012, awareness about lymphoma amongst patients in Australia prior to their initial diagnosis for patients who at least understood it was some type of cancer of the lymphatic system, and who had been diagnosed within the last 2 years was 34%. By comparing respondents in the 2012 survey for who had been diagnosed within the last 2 years (47%) to those who had been diagnosed more than 2 years ago (32%), there appears to have been significant increase in this awareness and understanding. Of the 6 countries with a large enough sample size to compare results, this increase in awareness of 15% (along with that of France) was the largest indicating that any recent awareness initiatives have been successful. The 4 most prevalent symptoms patients exhibited prior to their diagnosis were: fatigue (21%), painless swollen gland/lump (19%), night sweats (16%), and weight loss (10%). Despite these symptoms, 47% were still prompted to visit their doctor either for their yearly physical (9% versus 17% globally and 0% of respondents in 2010), or because they were just not feeling well (38%).

ANALYSIS Survey Findings - Patient Awareness Continued In 2012, 46% visited their doctor because of their signs and symptoms (versus 56% of respondents in 2010). 69% of patients visited their doctors within less than 6 months of first experiencing symptoms (versus 57% globally), but 23% took between 6 months and 2 years and 5%, more than 2 years. Only 29% of all respondents were prompted to get a second opinion (versus 46% globally). Only 30% did so (versus 49% globally and 69% of respondents in 2010). Only 15% of patients said that lymphoma was suspected prior to their initial diagnosis and that 60% of those discussed this suspicion with their doctor.

ANALYSIS Healthcare Professional Awareness Only 17% of all respondents were correctly diagnosed with lymphoma for their initial symptoms. 23% (versus 44% of respondents in 2010) of all respondents were accurately diagnosed for their initial symptoms within the first 2 weeks, another 53% (versus 32% of respondents in 2010) by the 4 month mark, and the remaining 24% after that. The doctor s diagnosis for initial symptoms for 47% of patients included a cold/viral infection (16%), glandular issue (16%), or no diagnosis at all (15%). Medication was prescribed to 34% of those misdiagnosed. At the time of initial diagnosis 57% saw a general practitioner (versus 81% of respondents in 2010), while 17% saw a haematologist (14% versus no respondents in 2010) or lymphoma specialist (3% versus no respondents in 2010).

ANALYSIS Healthcare Professional Awareness Continued 38% of the 17% of patients who were seen by either a haematologist or lymphoma specialist for their initial diagnosis were correctly diagnosed. 12% of those who were seen by a general practitioner also received a correct diagnosis. Only 13% of those 18-65 years of age received an accurate diagnosis after initial symptoms. This compares to 65+ year olds where as many as 28% received the proper initial diagnosis after initial symptoms. Of those misdiagnosed, the age bracket that was most highly treated was 46-65 year olds, where 41% of them were prescribed some sort of medication.

ANALYSIS Healthcare Professional Awareness Continued The most common misdiagnoses for 18-29 year olds and for 30-65 year olds was a cold/virus infection (average of 20%), whereas 18-29 year olds and 65+ year olds most commonly were not given any diagnosis (average of 23%). In 2012, 67% of respondents had either nodal removal (33%) or a needle biopsy (34%) as the test for their initial diagnosis, while 32% had either a bone marrow biopsy (21%) or a blood test 11%). Of those who had a bone marrow biopsy 50% had to have more than one. Of those who had a needle biopsy, only 13% were diagnosed with lymphoma after initial symptoms compared to 15% for nodal removal, 19% for bone marrow and 27% for blood tests.

ANALYSIS B. CLINICAL TRIALS The Lymphoma Coalition and its member in Australia have a significant opportunity to create global awareness and understanding amongst patients and their support network through education and information dissemination to ensure that all patients have equal access to this option to treatment. There appears to be a disconnect between those who would be willing to participate in a clinical trial, and those who actually do so. An evaluation of the role of patient organizations in getting involved earlier in the patient s journey is therefore required. There is also a need for a more patient friendly process to ensure that lymphoma patients are approached in a way in which they are made to feel comfortable enough to participate in clinical trials. Awareness and understanding about clinical trials in Australia, and the degree to which patients are being approached to participate in them despite their willingness to do so is poor, and represents a missed opportunity. Not only are patients not being approached for their participation, but they also lack the proper information so as to be made to feel comfortable about making the right decision. Patients in various stages of the disease are not being approached equally and so do not have equal opportunity to take advantage of a treatment option that could save their lives. The majority of those approaching patients for their participation have been healthcare professionals.

ANALYSIS Survey Findings At the time of diagnosis, 60% of respondents understood what a clinical trial (versus 94% of respondents in 2010). Only 14% (versus 25% globally) of all respondents were approached to participate in a clinical trial despite the fact that of those, 100% (versus 69% globally) agreed to participate. Of those respondents who had not been approached, 40% said they would do so, and 56% were at least willing to learn more about them and needed more information before making a decision. Of those who did not want to participate, the 2 main reasons included: not enough information (34% versus 22% globally), and not trusting that the treatment would be successful (18%). Of all patients approached to participate in a clinical trial, 85% (versus 72% globally) were approached by a healthcare professional.

ANALYSIS Survey Findings Continued The second largest source of information about clinical trials was patient organizations (11%). None of those who were in the diagnosis stage at the time of the survey had previously been approached to participate in a clinical trial (versus 20% globally). Of those in remission at the time of the survey, 15% (versus 23% globally) had been approached, 20% who were treatment free had been approached (versus 32% globally), and 25% of those who had relapsed had been approached (versus 35% globally).

ANALYSIS C. Quality of Life Despite the increasing need for information and support for how patients might enhance the quality of their lives as they live longer with a more chronic disease, there are significant gaps in the delivery of these resources which pose important opportunities for the healthcare profession, treatment centers and patient support organizations alike. The physical effects of lymphoma have the greatest negative impact on patients quality of life, although emotional impacts and barriers to treatment are also key factors. Quality of life is poorest for the young, female and those receiving hospital treatment therapies. There are significant gaps in what the healthcare profession, treatment centers and patient support organizations are able to do in terms of making patients aware of and delivering the support resources available to help them improve their quality of life. In this respect, patient organizations in Australia are essentially an untapped resource for newly diagnosed patients.

ANALYSIS Survey Findings Physical & Emotional Impacts Since diagnosis, lymphoma patients in Australia have had a worse quality of life from a physical impact point of view than have had global patients specifically for: o Fatigue (69% versus 52% globally), o Trouble concentrating (42% versus 27% globally), o Weight loss (24% versus 15% globally), o Memory loss (22% versus 13% globally), and Patients in Australia have been less affected by the swelling of their arms and legs (3% versus 11% globally).

ANALYSIS Survey Findings Physical & Emotional Impacts Continued Patients in Australia have also been affected by: o Muscle weakness (40%), o Hair loss (35%), o Sleeplessness (34%), o Changes in taste and smell (32%), o Bowel changes (28%), o Problems fighting infections (28%), o Changes in sexual function (26%), o Aching joints (22%), o Mucositis/mouth ulcers (21%), o Skin reactions (20%), o Nausea & vomiting (20%), o Loss of appetite (21%), o Weight gain (13%), o Loss of fertility (12%), o Fluid retention (8%), and o Swelling of arms and legs (3%).

ANALYSIS Survey Findings Physical & Emotional Impacts Continued Females in Australia were affected significantly more than males for the following physical impacts including: o Hair loss (+20%), o Weight loss (+16%), o Fatigue (+15%), o Skin reactions (+10%), o Sleeplessness (+9%), o Aching joints (+9%), and o Loss of appetite (+8%). Males were more significantly impacted than females for: o Weight gain (+14%), o Muscle weakness (+12%), and o Mucositis/mouth ulcers (+10%).

ANALYSIS Survey Findings Physical & Emotional Impacts Continued Half of patients were affected most by concerns with changes in relationships with others (20%), concerns with changes in body image (14%) and financial stresses (14%), and impact on employment (16%) followed by: o Loss of self-esteem (11%), o Problems with insurance coverage (10%), o Difficulties with job/school (7%), o Difficulty using the health system (5%), and o Not understanding the options (3%). Young people (18-29 yrs.) struggled much more significantly than other age groups with the physical impacts of lymphomas. The 2 most significant impacts on this age group included changes in taste and smell and loss of appetite (80% of this age group were affected a lot), and mucositis/mouth ulcers (60% were affected). As far as emotional impacts were concerned, changes in relationships, concerns with body image and job/school had the most impact on this age group.

ANALYSIS Survey Findings Physical & Emotional Impacts Continued Only 33% of all patients said they had communicated any of these issues regarding the effects of lymphoma on the quality of their lives with their doctors, and of those, 63% said their doctors had been able to help them, while 25% said they had not. 50% of respondents sought support beyond their doctor. The proportion of patients affected by various barriers to treatment included: financial (14%), access to a treatment center (13%), personal support (8%), access to up to date treatment (5%), wait time to treatment (5%) and being unable to give up their caregiver role (4%). Financial issues were the most significant barriers to treatment affecting on average, 19% of 18-29 year olds and 46-65 year olds, while 25% of 30-45 year olds were affected most by being unable to give up their caregiver role, and 16% of the 65+ age group were most affected with having access to up to date treatments.

ANALYSIS Survey Findings Treatment Center Support 53% of patients were provided with information about their treatment center by healthcare professionals, making them the most effective. The second most important source of information was the patient organization (20%) followed by: o Friends, family members, and other sources (20%), and o Online research (9%). 71% of respondents said their treatment center was most effective at offering them a counsellor/ psychologist (16%), a referral to an external support provider (20%), a social worker (18%), and/or a dietician/nutritionist (17%). 6% said that no services had been offered to them, and an average of about only 5% of respondents indicated that treatment centers had been effective at offering services such as physical therapy, pain management, a complementary therapist and a chaplain.

ANALYSIS Survey Findings Patient Support Organizations 57% (versus 45% globally) of respondents said their pa:ent support organiza:on was either very helpful or helpful at providing them with informa:on and support, while as many as 31% (versus 43% globally) said they did not use one. Pa:ent Support Organiza:ons could most improve their support to pa:ents by providing: o General informa:on, but informa:on also about their type of lymphoma and/or clinical trials, and to answer medical ques:ons (40%); o Personal support such as someone to visit them at home, in treatment, and/or a support organiza:on (24%); o Online support such as presenta:ons, an improved web site, and/or a support organiza:on (12%); o Telephone support such as someone personally answering the phone, and/or a 24 hour support line (6%); and o Financial support (6%).

ANALYSIS Survey Findings Home versus Hospital In 2012, 81% (versus 71% globally) of patients were using hospital based therapies including: o Intravenous (53% versus 43% globally and 71% of respondents in 2010) o Intravenous & oral (22% versus 0% of respondents in 2010) o Radiation (6%), o Subcutaneous (0%) and o Stem cell transplant (0%). While 20% were using home based therapies including: o Watch & Wait (14%), o Topical (4%), and o Oral medication (2%).

ANALYSIS Survey Findings Home versus Hospital Continued Patients receiving hospital based treatments have a worse quality of life than those of home based patients in that they are significantly more affected by the following physical impacts: o Hair loss (+29%), o Problems fighting infections (+18%), o Weight gain (+16% versus 8% globally) o Changes in taste and smell (+15% versus 23% globally), o Bowel changes (+13%), o Loss of appetite (+11%), o Loss of fertility (+11%), and o Swelling of arms and legs (+11%). These results are not surprising given that hospital treated patients typically receive harsher treatments than home treated patients.

ANALYSIS Survey Findings Home versus Hospital Continued Home treated patients were significantly more affected than were hospital treated patients for: o Skin reactions (+18% versus 10% globally), o Trouble concentrating (+11%), and o Weight loss (+10%) As many as 30% of those treated at home were not offered any treatment centre services versus 19% for those treated in hospital. 35% of those treated at home (versus 48% globally) did not use a patient support organization versus 43% of those treated in hospital.

ANALYSIS III. CONCLUSION It would appear that awareness of these cancers is still relatively low among patients and healthcare professionals despite the fact that there was a significant increase in awareness and understanding among patients. It is critical to educate about lymphoma to reduce this threat to patients. Despite this, it is good to see that Australian patients are visiting their doctors for signs and symptoms earlier on. Secondly, there is a place for patient support organizations to work alongside the healthcare community at the time of diagnosis to assist in education and all aspects of journey support. A formal and delicate structured process is required for this to take place. Thank you to all the patients who participated and shared their journey with us.

CONCLUSION It would appear that although awareness of these cancers has increased, misdiagnosis remains the same around the world. It is cri:cal to educate the Prac::oners and General Oncologists about lymphoma to reduce this threat to pa:ents. Secondly, there is a place for pa:ent support organiza:ons to work alongside the healthcare community at the :me of diagnosis to assist in educa:on and all aspects of journey support. A formal and delicate structured process is required for this to take place. Thank you to all the pa:ents who par:cipated and shared their journey with us.
