Filter by:This research is a randomized smoking cessation trial conducted within and specifically personalized for lung cancer screening patients presenting to a lung screening clinic. Novel tobacco treatments for this population are critically needed, given the growing population of lung screening patients, which will grow dramatically now that lung screening is an approved CMS benefit. In the proposed study, we will test a gain-framed messaging intervention specifically designed for lung screening patients (vs. unframed messaging), as well as evaluating NRT sampling (vs. no medication) at 2 study sites. Our project is designed to be translational (in that it can be transferable from our controlled efficacy study to other lung screening programs).
The investigators will conduct nationally representative survey in chest physicians in Egypt in 2016-2017. Self-administered questionnaire will be used to assess the physicians' knowledge of lung cancer screening guidelines, beliefs about the effectiveness of screening tests, and ordering of screening chest radiography, low-dose spiral computed tomography, or sputum cytology in the past 12 months.
The purpose of this study is to test if our Community Health Worker program can help at-risk NYC Chinese community members participate in shared decision making and lung cancer screening (if appropriate) and compare it to the help provided by written materials.
Veterans have a high risk of developing lung in comparison to general populations due to their older age and smoking history. Recent evidence indicates that lung cancer screening with low dose CT scan reduces lung cancer mortality among older heavy smokers. However, the rates of false positive findings are high, requiring further testing and evaluation. Preliminary studies report that while some Veterans are enthusiastic about screening, others are highly reluctant. Patient preferences should be considered as part of an informed decision making process for this emerging paradigm of lung cancer control. Effective methods for preference assessment among Veterans have not yet been developed, evaluated, and integrated into clinical practice. The specific aims of this study are to 1) elicit patient and provider stakeholder input to inform the development of a lung cancer screening decision tool, 2) develop a web based Lung Cancer Screening Decision Tool (LCSDecTool) that incorporates patient and provider input, and 3) evaluate the impact of the LCSDecTool compared to usual care on the decision process, clinical outcomes, and quality of life. (5/8/18)-This project involves the recruitment of both Veterans as well as health care providers/leaders. Patient recruitment efforts at both sites will target male and female patients enrolled in a Patient Aligned Care Teams (PACT) who are eligible for lung cancer screening. Our recruitment goals for patients are 40% African American, 5% Hispanic patients, and 10% women. (10/25/2018) Patient recruitment efforts at both sites will target male and female To Date, 32 Veterans have signed the consent form and completed their portion of the trial (16 at CMCVAMC and 16 at West Haven, CT). To Date, 61 Providers have completed their portion of the trial (18 at CMCVAMC and 43 at West Haven, CT). Enrollment for Phase 1 is complete. Enrollment for Phase 2 will begin in June, 2018.patients enrolled in a Patient Aligned Care Teams (PACT) who are eligible for lung cancer screening. Our recruitment goals for patients are 40% African American, 5% Hispanic patients, and 10% women. To Date, 9 Veterans have signed the consent form and completed their portion of the trial (9 at CMCVAMC and 0 at West Haven, CT). Enrollment for Phase 2 is ongoing with the intent to complete By November 30, 2018. (01/15/2019) Phase 2 patient recruitment is complete. 18 Veterans have signed the consent form and completed their portion of the trial (12 at CMCVAMC and 6 at West Haven, CT). 14 Providers have completed their portion of the trial (8 at CMCVAMC and 6 at West Haven, CT). Enrollment for Phase 3 will begin in February, 2019. To Date (7/1/2019) Enrollment for Phase 3 is ongoing with the intent to complete by February 28, 2020. To Date, 18 Veterans have signed the consent form and completed their baseline portion of the trial (18 at CMCVAMC and 0 at West Haven, CT). To Date (12/3/2019) Enrollment for Phase 3 is ongoing with the intent to complete by February 28, 2021. A 1-year study extension has been submitted and awaiting approval. To Date, 70 Veterans have signed the consent form and completed their baseline portion of the trial (65 at CMCVAMC and 5 at West Haven, CT). To Date (9/9/2020) Enrollment for Phase 3 has just resumed after being placed on administrative hold since March 2020 due to Covid-19. Secondary Site in West Haven, CT has been replaced by Milwaukee, WI. To Date, 90 Veterans have signed the consent form and completed their baseline portion of the trial (83 at CMCVAMC, 5 at West Haven, CT and 2 at Milwaukee, WI). To Date (2/16/2021) 9-Month Cost Extension was approved and study enrollment for Phase 3 will continue through September 2021. Due to COVID-19 and the increasing amounts of primary care telehealth appointments, both Philadelphia and Milwaukee have modified their protocols to include telephone baseline visits to meet our recruitment goals. To Date, 106 Veterans have signed the consent form and completed their baseline portion of the trial (91 at CMCVAMC, 5 at West Haven, CT and 10 at Milwaukee, WI). To Date (12/02/2021) Recruitment has ended and 142 Veterans have signed the consent form and completed their baseline portion of the trial (107 at CMCVAMC, 5 at West Haven, CT and 29 at Milwaukee, WI). We are beginning our preliminary analysis.
Investigators will administer a brief, anonymous survey at the Texas Academy of Family Physicians (TAFP) annual Primary Care Summit to better understand the readiness of primary care physicians in Texas to implement lung cancer screening programs in their practice settings.
