Our objective was to develop an anal cancer HRQoL module to supplement the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire using EORTC Quality of Life Group Guidelines. "Materials and method": In order to generate a list of HRQoL issues facing anal cancer patients treated with chemoradiotherapy (CRT), we systematically reviewed the literature and conducted semi-structured interviews with patients and health care professionals (HCPs). Our list was then operationalised into questions using the EORTC Item Library. The provisional question list was pilot tested alongside the EORTC QLQ-C30 with patients from 11 centres across 8 countries. "Results": From our literature review and interviews with 43 patients, we generated a list of 197 issues. The list was then refined to 134 issues and reviewed by 34 HCPs and 10 patients. This review resulted in the retention of 65 issues which were used in the draft questionnaire tested by 100 patients. Our analyses led to the modification and removal of questions resulting in a 27 item questionnaire, the EORTC QLQ-ANL27. "Conclusion": We have developed a 27 item questionnaire to supplement the EORTC QLQ-C30, for use with patients treated for anal cancer. This has been pilot tested and is now available upon request for use in clinical trials as well as clinical practice in 8 languages (http://groups.eortc.be/qol/).
