Clinical Trial Summary

This research study is looking at the role of a supportive care mobile app in improving symptoms, coping skills, and quality of life in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.


Clinical Trial Description

This research study is a Feasibility Study, which is the first-time investigators are examining this supportive care mobile app intervention. The goal of this research study is to refine and examine the feasibility and benefits of a supportive care mobile app to improve symptoms, coping skills, and quality of life in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Many people diagnosed with lung cancer experience challenging symptoms and increased stress. To help address these concerns, this study is exploring how a mobile application (app) intervention, designed specifically for people with lung cancer, can expand the availability of much needed supportive care services. The research study procedures include: - A supportive care mobile app consisting of six intervention modules that focus on components of wellbeing, such as physical, social, functional, and emotional wellbeing - Questionnaires asking about demographic information (e.g., gender, ethnicity, income) and participants' experience with cancer (e.g., quality of life, symptoms) - Data collection from participants medical records After completing a baseline study questionnaire, participants will be randomized into two (2) study groups: - Usual Care Group: Participants will receive standard oncology care and attend their regular clinic visits. Study staff will monitor participant use of supportive care services. - Intervention Group: Participants will be provided with a study-issued tablet computer to access the mobile app and receive tutorial and instructions for how to use the app. Participants will be in this research study for 12-14 weeks. It is expected that about 120 people will take part in this research study. The sponsors of this study are the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) and AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals. NCCN is a non-profit alliance of leading cancer centers across the United States, and AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals is a global bio-pharmaceutical company. These two sponsors are together providing funding and oversight for the conduct of this research study. ;
