Coproducing Personalised Care in a Digital Age: Using the Adversity, Restoration and Compatibility (ARC) Framework to Inform the Co-design of a Digital Care Planning Tool for People With Colorectal Cancer.
The overarching aim is to study the coproduction of personalised care in a digital age by seeking to improve the experience of care and personalised care and support planning for people who live with and beyond colorectal cancer. This study will assess digital health contributions to personalised care and explore how to improve the quality of collaborative digital care planning in cancer services. The electronic holistic needs assessment (eHNA) developed by Macmillan Cancer Support (macmillan.org.uk/healthcare-professionals/innovation-in-cancer-care/holistic-needs-assessmen t/sign-up-to-ehna) will be used as a case study to help advance this aspect of healthcare improvement studies. The primary objective is to gain a better understanding of how personalised care and support planning in the form of the eHNA and consultation works (or not) from the perspectives of people who are living with and beyond colorectal cancer, and clinicians. The secondary objectives are to: i. identify what good practice looks like for digital personalised care and support planning in a specific tumour group (colorectal) and at a point in the cancer pathway (within 31 days of diagnosis) ii. explore if the ARC framework can be used to inform personalised cancer care and support planning The research will review current practice and focus on identifying what good looks like for digital cancer care planning. It will go on to explore how what we know about LWBC can be used to inform the co-design of digital care planning that better supports personalised long-term cancer care. From the outset, this early work will help to inform future issues around generalisability and scaling-up.

A Personalised Prehabilitation Model for Patients Undergoing Chemotherapy, Radiotherapy and/or Immunotherapy Treatment for Lung Cancer: A Feasibility Pilot Study
Background The term 'prehabilitation' refers to a period of time before treatment and often includes diet, exercise and/or wellbeing plans to help patients through their cancer treatment. Prehabilitation has shown to benefit patients having surgery, but there is little research into its use in the oncological setting. The United Kingdom sees more deaths from lung cancer than any other cancer. 70-80% of lung cancer patients receive oncological treatment. Treatment side effects can have a significant impact on quality of life. Personalised prehabilitation can take into account the challenges patients face, helping patients through treatment. Aim To see if a personalised plan of diet, exercise and emotional support can be used in practice for patients having chemotherapy, radiotherapy and/or immunotherapy treatment for lung cancer. Methods The study will involve lung cancer patients from Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust who are: - Over the age of 18 years old - Have not had previous lung cancer surgery and - Are about to start chemotherapy, radiotherapy or immunotherapy treatment The prehabilitation interventions will be based upon patient need and readiness, assessed using: - A series of questionnaires - An assessment of walking - A measure of grip strength These will be done prior to, at week three and at week six of a patient's oncological treatment regime. Personalised goals will be agreed at each stage. Throughout treatment, patients will be asked to keep a daily diary to record their symptoms, appetite, mobility and mood. The diary will also be used to monitor goal adherence. Public involvement Patients will be part of a study advisory group, helping with research design and dissemination e.g. with the presentation of findings to the lung cancer support group. Dissemination All patients will receive a written summary of findings. Results will be shared in a scientific journal and presented at relevant conferences. Patients will not be identifiable.

Implementation of Smoking Cessation Support During Lung Cancer Workup: a Pragmatic, Cluster-randomised Controlled Trial and an Interview-based Study of Patients' and Healthcare Professionals' Experiences
The aim of the present project is to implement smoking cessation support in hospital-based lung cancer workup. The effect on 1) patients' smoking cessation attempts, motivation, quality of life and psychosocial consequences of lung cancer workup as well as 2) hospitals' number of referrals to municipality-based smoking cessation programmes will be evaluated in a pragmatic, cluster-randomised controlled setup, where participating hospitals will be assigned to the intervention arm (implementation of smoking cessation support) or the control arm (usual practice). Patients' and healthcare professionals' experiences with and barriers towards smoking cessation support will be explored in an interview-based, qualitative study.

Peer Support Program in cáncer Patients Elkar Laguntza
In cancer patients, social support provided by partners, family and/or friends plays a key role in coping with the disease and reducing treatment-related distress. However, research indicates that some of the needs of patients, such as coping with the disease, reducing isolation or managing guilt, often go unmet. With the aim of trying to meet these types of needs of people with cancer, the present research will evaluate the effectiveness of a peer support program in cancer patients, based on the support provided or exchanged by people who have faced similar challenges or problems. The intervention will consist of 8 face-to-face sessions of social peer support, involving a cancer patient and a volunteer who is in a stable phase and who has undergone the same diagnosis and medical treatment. To evaluate the effectiveness of the social support program, the immediate and long-term effect of participation in the program on both psychological (anxious-depressive symptoms, quality of life, perception of the disease, coping strategies, perception of social support,...) and biological (endocrine and immune system) variables will be analyzed.

Perioperative Nutritional Support in Esophageal Cancer Patients
Upper GI malignancies often lead to involuntary weight loss and nutritional deficits. Nutritional support, both pre- and postoperatively, may improve post-operative course and reduce length of hospital stay. This prospective randomized trial aims to investigate the above mentioned hypothesis and clarify any variants that may differ between the investigation and control group at a statistically significant level.

Recovery Support for Bladder Cancer Patients and Caregivers: A Multimodal Approach
For patients with certain types of bladder cancer, the removal of the bladder and the construction of an artificial bladder or reservoir are the only treatment options. Both before and after treatment, patients and caregivers face profound challenges preparing for surgery and planning for tasks during their recovery. To aid in recovery and enhance quality of life this program of research will develop and evaluate a multi-stage intervention geared towards patients and their caregivers. Part 1 of this program will have a nurse or trained health professional prepare both patients and their caregivers before treatment about the upcoming surgery. During this time the nurse will also demonstrate the necessary tools and techniques for stoma care. In addition, patients and their caregivers will receive access to a recovery website, specifically designed for bladder cancer patients to be used as a resource for after treatment. The website will be part 2 of this research and will contain important recovery information, videos about post-surgical care, testimonials by other patients and physicians and a variety of other resources. Patients and caregivers in the control group will receive the Facing Forward brochures from the National Cancer Institute in part 2. This research has been funded by the National Cancer Institute and will be the first study to address the needs of bladder cancer patients and their caregivers. The ultimate goal of the study is to reduce infections and unplanned nurse/ER visits and improve quality of life for both patients and their caregivers. This new program will be evaluated over the course of 12-months and if found successful, has the potential to be disseminated throughout the health care systems of the two study sites.
