Clinical Trial Summary

This trial tests new methods and materials for the real-time chemotherapy-associated side effects monitoring support system (RT-CAMSS) in patients with gastrointestinal cancers undergoing chemotherapy. RT-CAMSS is a monitoring support system that provides patients with evidence-based information and side-effect management and coping skills, emotional support and validation, and proactive care via text messages and questionnaires as they undergo chemotherapy.


Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Develop and refine a real-time chemo-associated side effects monitoring support system (RT-CAMSS) using interactive text messaging (TXT) for patients with gastric, esophageal, pancreatic and colorectal cancer during chemotherapy. II. Assess the feasibility and engagement of the RT-CAMSS in a 2-month pilot study. III. To gather preliminary data on the impact of RT-CAMSS on patient's quality of life and symptom distress. OUTLINE: PHASE I: Patients participate in an audio-recorded focus group or one-on-one interview over 40 minutes either in-person, over the phone, or electronically. Patients receive sample text messages and questionnaires generated from the RT-CAMSS to generate reaction, discussion, and scenarios. PHASE II: Patients receive RT-CAMSS over 2 months or until chemotherapy is discontinued, whichever is earlier. RT-CAMSS consists of text messages addressing knowledge about specific cancer type and chemotherapy, side-effect prevention, suggestions of lifestyle behavioral changes and emotional support, and preparation for surgery. Patients then record their symptoms through answering a series of questionnaires and receive tailored feedback according to their answers, including a consultation with a nurse. After completion of study, patients are followed up at 1 and 2 months.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Feasibility and Engagement Will be measured through study accrual, attrition, and system usage frequencies. We aim for accrual at a rate of 50% to match our prior study but a rate over 30% will be feasible. The intervention will be considered feasible if attrition does not exceed 30%. 90% of participants reporting their symptoms at least once will be considered adequate. Up to 2 months or until chemotherapy is discontinued, whichever is earlier
Primary Acceptability Will be measured through a satisfaction measure and patient interview data. Acceptability will be established by a group median score >= 3 on the 1-4 satisfaction scale. Up to 2 months or until chemotherapy is discontinued, whichever is earlier
Primary Symptom distress The Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale (MSAS), a well-validated instrument that will be used to assess common physical symptoms concerning chemotherapy in patients. The MSAS measures the prevalence, frequency, severity, and distress of 25 physical symptoms and seven psychological symptoms. Up to 2 months or until chemotherapy is discontinued, whichever is earlier
Primary Self-efficacy Will be measured using the Patient Activation Measure (PAM) for assessing skills, knowledge and self-confidence for self-management. The scale asks participants concerning their certainty of controlling symptoms caused by chemotherapy to perform daily activities. Up to 2 months or until chemotherapy is discontinued, whichever is earlier
Primary Information and support needs Will be measured using the Cancer Treatment Scale (CaTS). The CaTS assesses patient's preparation prior to the start of their chemotherapy treatment. Prior to start of chemotherapy treatment
Primary Medical information Will be extracted from the electronic medical record (EMR) chart including cancer diagnosis information, treatment schedule and discontinuation. Baseline
Primary Functional Assessment of Cancer Treatment - General scale Questionnaire will be used to assess patient quality of life. The 27-item FACT-G assesses four specific domains including physical, social, emotional and functional well-being. Up to 2 months or until chemotherapy is discontinued, whichever is earlier
Primary Social support The Multidemensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), a well-validated 12-item instrument used to assess patient perceived social support. Up to 2 months or until chemotherapy is discontinued, whichever is earlier
Primary Post-intervention evaluation Patient interviews will explore key domains including perceived usefulness, how well the enhanced usual care and the RT-CAMSS address their concerns, whether there are additional issues they would like to see included and the characteristics of the text message. Through study completion, an average of 2 months
