Interest of Virtual Reality to Prevent Cancer Patient Anxiety Before

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the REV clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of a virtual reality exposure to decrease patient anxiety before chemotherapy or an invasive act. If positive, the access to virtual reality exposure is aimed to be used as standard of care at Lyon's hospital to improve cancer patient well-being in a drug-free manner. The majority of cancer patients lives with high level of anxiety as soon as diagnosed. This level anxiety is particularly high before invasive acts but also before chemotherapy by side effects anticipation. Hypnosis is a highly interesting drug-free approach to decrease patient's anxiety. It however requires on site specialists to be available whenever needed. Virtual reality provides a distractive environment enabled to shift patient focus. It can support a switch of patient mindset by providing positive emotions. Since 5 years, this disruptive technology is being more and more used as medical support thanks to a new generation of headsets enabling improved performance at cheaper prices. Many publications have now demonstrated the positive impact of virtual reality to take in charge patients' pain or pre-operational anxiety.

Clinical Trial Description

The primary objective of the REV study is to demonstrate the difference of anxiety before and after a virtual reality exposure using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-Y) before patients undergo an oncological procedure (invasive act or chemotherapy (C1D1). The investigator's REV study aims to recruit 66 patients among three cohorts (22 patients per cohort) in 12 months. - Breast cancer cohort (patient receiving an adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy with doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide) - Head or neck cancer cohort (patient treated by concomitant radiochemotherapy) - Cancer patient for which an invasive act inducing anxiety is planned (lumbar puncture, ascites puncture, thoracocentesis, myelogram, bone marrow biopsy, urinary catheterization, ..) The REV study aims to impact Lyon's hospital patients' quality of life and well-being by decreasing their anxiety level during oncological treatments thanks to innovative supportive cares. ;

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.
