Who may be able to join

  • Patients must have prostate biopsy within 4 months prior to registration showing newly diagnosed prostate cancer, stage T1-3N0M0; in addition, patients must have: Gleason score 6-10
  • Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) < 50 ng/mL
  • Patients who have had a history of non-cutaneous malignancy in the previous 5 years are not eligible; exception: patients with history of non-melanoma skin cancer are eligible

What is being measured

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

  1. Knowledge Assessed by Prostate Cancer Treatment Questionnaire

    The primary outcome, knowledge, will be assessed by a standardized questionnaire (i.e., Prostate Cancer Treatment Questionnaire) administered once, immediately after the clinical consultation while the patient is still at the study site. The number correct from this 12-item measure will be reduced to a proportion of total number correct. With 1.0 (12 out of 12 item average) being the best possible outcome and 0.0 (0 out of 12 item average) the worst possible outcome

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Decisional Quality as Measured by Decisional Regret Scale

    The Decisional Regret Scale is a short, 5-item scale measuring "distress or remorse after a (health care) decision." The instrument has been validated in other decision aid studies. Questions are answered on a 5-point agreement scale. A score of 0 means no decisional regret and 5 is the maximum level of regret. The continuous scores were then grouped into two categories, 0 (no regret) and 1+ (at least some regret).

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Quality of Life Assessed by Questionnaire

    The Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composit (EPIC-26) measures health-related quality of life and returns summary scores for urinary, bowel, sexual, and hormonal domains with high test-retest reliability and internal consistency. Scores will be converted into continuous summary scores using standard algorithms. For the EPIC-26 questionnaire, scores were transformed into 0 to 100 scales, with a score of 0 represented the worst possible health-related quality of life and a score of 100 representing the most favorable health-related quality of life. The questionnaire will be administered once; 12 months after the patient's initial consultation.

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Utilization as Determined by Chart Review

    Will be categorized by the type of treatment the patient elected to receive. Will be compared across intervention arms.

    Measured: 12 months

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 Aug 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Knowledge Assessed by Prostate Cancer Treatment Questionnaire (time frame: 12 months). 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 2 Aug 2023.
