Ib. The global health outcomes of men with prostate cancer who are in active treatment by active treatment type (i.e. surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, or a combination of these methodologies).

Ic. The symptom experience of men newly diagnosed with prostate cancer as measured by the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI).

Id. The frequency of emergency room visits and hospital admissions for patients receiving treatment in the ambulatory setting.

II. To evaluate the relationship between financial toxicity, as measured by the Consumer Score for Financial Toxicity (COST), and quality of life, as measured by the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite for Clinical Practice (EPIC-CP).
