Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Conducting brief structured interviews, to further understand potential patient characteristics and barriers associated with non-adherence of medication. With this knowledge of identified patient barriers, interventional strategies can be designed to improve CML care, monitoring and adherence.

Who may be able to join

  • Patient is diagnosed with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) and is receiving care for CML at a participating CCDR NCORP practice,
  • Patient had been prescribed one of the following oral anticancer agents for CML for ≥30 days (Imatinib, Nilotinib, Dasatinib, Bosutinib, Ponatinib). Prior use of any of these medications is allowed, as long as they have been on a stable regimen for at least 30 days prior to enrollment.
  • Patient is 18 years of age or older

Who cannot join

  • Patient does not speak English or requires an interpreter for medical visits
  • Patient is cognitively impaired, as determined by the referring provider

About this study

Official title: Preparatory Work to Assess Adherence to Oral Chemotherapy Among Patients With Chronic Myeloid Leukemia

This study to find out more about how patients take their anticancer medications and challenges related to taking cancer medications.

Read the detailed description

120 patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) who are currently prescribed an oral anti-cancer agent from up to 6 CCDR NCORP sites to complete a brief interviewer administered survey to assess medication adherence and related factors.

Medical subject headings
Leukemia, Myelogenous, Chronic, BCR-ABL Positive

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Patient Demographic and Health Behaviors Questionnaire

    Questions will be asked about the participants demographic background and health behaviors.

    Measured: Study 1 day Visit

  2. Brief Medication Questionnaire (BMQ)

    A self-report tool for screening adherence and barriers to adherence. The tool includes a 5-item Regimen Screen that asks patients how they took each medication in the past week, a 2-item Belief Screen that asks about drug effects and bothersome features, and a 2-item Recall Screen about potential difficulties remembering.

    Measured: Study 1 day Visit

  3. Single Item Adherence Measure 1

    This is a single question. This measure was developed to serve as simple means of identifying sub-optimal adherence which could help identify at-risk patients for interventions.

    Measured: Study 1 day Visit

  4. Single Item Adherence Measure 2

    This single item was developed to evaluate self-report adherence to medication and has demonstrated low patient burden and the ability to predict adherence-related clinical outcomes as good or better than other adherence measures.

    Measured: Study 1 day Visit

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. REALM-SF

    The REALM-SF offers researchers a simplified, validated, and efficient instrument for assessing patient literacy in clinical setting. It can be used to investigate the relationship between literacy and specific health outcomes such as medication adherence and health care utilization.

    Measured: Study 1 day Visit

  2. Medications Adherence Reasons Scale (MARS)

    This questionnaire is designed to identify potential risk factors associated with medication-related non-adherence.

    Measured: Study 1 day Visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia, run by Wake Forest University Health Sciences at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Patient Demographic and Health Behaviors Questionnaire (time frame: Study 1 day Visit). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jun 2018.
