Cancer Clinical Trial - The HealthScore Health Coaching Program

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Purpose: The HealthScore Health Coaching Program aims to deliver 6-months of 1:1 home-based health coaching to cancer patients receiving treatment and survivors of any diagnosis at UNC Cancer Hospital. This study hopes to preserve physical function, address unmet physical, nutritional, psychological, social and other needs. Procedures: This will be done through individualized health coaching, weekly symptom survey administration, monthly supportive care questionnaires, and physical assessments at baseline, 3 months and 6 months. Participants: All cancer patients with appointments at UNC Cancer Hospitals.

Clinical Trial Description

Evaluation and monitoring are used sporadically in routine cancer care, and cancer coaching programs are rare. The potential for these approaches to improve quality of life and clinical outcomes in cancer patients is significant. The HealthScore Health Coaching Program is designed as a way to routinely combine evaluation, monitoring and coaching within a single framework as a six-month intervention for cancer patients or survivors. The primary rationale for the Program is that improvements in physical function, unmet needs identification, and self-efficacy are likely to lead to better patient-centered and overall outcomes for patients and survivors. A secondary rationale is that the framework of the Program and data obtained as part of the Program will facilitate additional quality improvement and research activities to refine the application of evaluation, monitoring and coaching techniques in cancer care. As reimbursement and care delivery in oncology transition to a focus on value and population-based management, the HealthScore Health Coaching Program may provide a model for application to cancer care within and outside UNC. The primary purpose of this study is to provide 6-months of 1:1 home-based health coaching for cancer patients and survivors will improve physical function and address unmet physical, nutritional, psychological, social and other needs which will increase patient and survivor self-efficacy for medical engagement, reduce morbidity, health care utilization, and encourage health lifestyle behaviors. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
