Clinical Trial Summary
The goal of this research study is to provide an avatar-based technology during a subject's
stay for participants who have been admitted to the hospital for reduced-intensity
conditioning (RIC) allogeneic transplant. The intervention received will be the care.coach
technology.
Description:
This research study is a Pilot Study, which means the investigators are studying the
application in a smaller group of people to understand whether the technology, care.coach, is
easy to use.
This is a single site study at Dana-Farber Brigham and Women's Cancer Center.
- Aim 1 of the study will be an 8 - 10 participant focus group of nurses, navigator
nurses, physicians, and NPs/PAs to refine the avatar protocols.
- Aim 2 of the study will be a pilot of 18 participants undergoing RIC allogeneic HCT in
the hospital.
- The research study procedures include screening for eligibility, a brief call with
a research assistant during use of care.coach avatar, and a survey after study
completion.
- The avatar is designed to communicate with participants regarding transplantation
education and provide reminders for eating, drinking, and activity.
- care.coach is a digital, avatar-based technology that communicates using natural
speech software.
- care.coach is supporting this research by providing Dana-Farber access to its
technology. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) also supports this research.
