Allowing cancer patients to actively participate by asking questions during the medical consultation has demonstrated that it improves care provision. In order to ease this behaviour, an Australian team developed and validated a question-prompt list (QPL). Our purpose is to present the French adaptation of this tool. Independently translated by three translators, a first version in French was submitted to a committee of ten specialists, oncologists and psycho-oncologists. We submit that second version to a sample of 10 patients in supportive and palliative care unit, including a meeting with a psychologist. Clinicians and patients were invited to comment on the clarity, relevance and acceptability of the QPL. These findings suggest that French patients assessed this QPL to be comprehensive and helpful to express their concerns.
