Introduction: Currently, no quality-of-life instrument exists that captures the full experience of the mental health outlook (MHO), a coreHEM core outcome, in people with haemophilia, including the potential transformational experience of receiving gene therapy.
Aim: To describe the methods used to develop a content validated patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) that measures MHO for people with haemophilia.
Methods: A conceptual framework, developed from a literature/evidence review, was used to create an interview guide and draft a questionnaire.
Background: A multistakeholder core outcome set created for asthma trials showed that asthma-specific quality of life (QoL) was a critically meaningful outcome. However, the definition and measurement methods were undetermined. The adverse effects (AEs) of corticosteroids may be a vital clinical trial outcome.

Development of a NASH core outcome set (COS) can help prioritize outcomes of highest importance by incorporating the perspectives from a variety of decision makers. coreNASH was an initiative to develop a COS for NASH using a modified Delphi consensus process with a multi-stakeholder voting panel.

To date, however, patients have been largely omitted from efforts to design new payment models. We sought to identify key characteristics of outcomes-based quality measures to inform future APMs that are more patient-centered.
