Clinical Trial Summary

This randomized phase III trial studies how well a multimedia self-management intervention works in preparing family caregivers and patients with stage I-III lung cancer for lung cancer surgery. The multimedia self-management intervention, Preparing for your Lung Cancer Surgery, is a nurse-led, caregiver-based, multimedia intervention that may improve patient recovery after surgery, lower caregiving burden, and improve distress and quality of life.


Clinical Trial Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Test the effects of the multimedia self-management (MSM) intervention on family caregivers (FCG) outcomes and cancer support services use at discharge and 3-month post-discharge, comparing intervention and attention control groups. II. Test the effects of the MSM intervention on patient outcomes and healthcare resource use at discharge and 3-months post-discharge, comparing intervention and attention control groups. III. Test the effects of the MSM intervention on outcome mediators at discharge and 3-months post-discharge, comparing intervention and attention control groups. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Explore moderators (age, sex, marital status, caregiver relationship to patient, caregiver employment status, co-morbidities) of FCG and patient outcomes and reciprocal relationships. II. Determine, through exit interviews, participant's experience with the MSM intervention. OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 groups. GROUP I: Patients and FCGs receive the MSM intervention consisting of videos, a handbook, and research nurse coaching over 40-60 minutes, approximately 3-7 days before surgery and within 24 hours of planned discharge. Patients and FCGs also receive research nurse support by telephone (separate sessions for FCGs and patients) over 20-30 minutes at 2 and 7 days, and 2 months post-discharge. GROUP II: Patients and FCGs receive attention control intervention consisting of videos (American Cancer Society video on "Clinical Trials"), American Cancer Society print materials, and assistance from a clinical research associate (CRA) approximately 3-7 days before surgery and within 24 hours of planned discharge. Patients and FCGs also receive assistance from CRAs via telephone calls at 2 and 7 days, and 2 months post-discharge. ;
