About this study

The overall objectives in this study are to identify patterns of cognitive impairment pre- and post-transplant, to assess the similarities of scores of the three cognitive assessments in myeloma patients who undergo autologous stem cell transplant, and to determine if patients prefer the self-assessment, Self-Administered Gerocognitive Exam (SAGE) or the healthcare applied Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) assessment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Scores of the PROMIS Cognitive Function, short form 8a

    Will be assessed by Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Cognitive Function, short form 8a. The mean scores (and standard deviations) for each time points will be presented.

    Measured: Before to approximately 100 days after transplant

  2. Scores of the Self-Administered Gerocognitive Exam (SAGE)

    Will be assessed by the Self-Administered Gerocognitive Exam (SAGE). The mean scores (and standard deviations) for each time points will be presented.

    Measured: Before to approximately 100 days after transplant

  3. Scores of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)

    Will be assessed by Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). The mean scores (and standard deviations) for each time points will be presented.

    Measured: Before to approximately 100 days after transplant

  4. Changes in scores of the PROMIS Cognitive Function, short form 8a

    Will be assessed by Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Cognitive Function, short form 8a. The mean changes in scores will be presented. The difference in each cognitive tests will be evaluated using a paired t-test to determine if any change has occurred.

    Measured: Before to approximately 100 days after transplant

  5. Changes in scores of the Self-Administered Gerocognitive Exam (SAGE)

    Will be assessed by the Self-Administered Gerocognitive Exam (SAGE). The mean changes in scores will be presented. The difference in each cognitive tests will be evaluated using a paired t-test to determine if any change has occurred.

    Measured: Before to approximately 100 days after transplant

  6. Changes in scores of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)

    Will be assessed by Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). The mean changes in scores will be presented. The difference in each cognitive tests will be evaluated using a paired t-test to determine if any change has occurred.

    Measured: Before to approximately 100 days after transplant

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Agreement between cognitive test (PROMIS 8a and SAGE)

    Evaluate how each tests score is in agreement with the other using statistics correlations.examiner-implemented cognitive assessment, MoCA. Will assess the correlation of the tests before and post-transplant as well as the correlation of the change in scores.

    Measured: Up to approximately 100 days after transplant

  2. Agreement between cognitive test (PROMIS 8a and MoCA)

    Evaluate how each tests score is in agreement with the other using statistics correlations.

    Measured: Up to approximately 100 days after transplant

  3. Agreement between cognitive test (SAGE and MoCA)

    Evaluate how each tests score is in agreement with the other using statistics correlations.

    Measured: Up to approximately 100 days after transplant

  4. Patients' preference between self-assessment tools Questionnaire

    Will assess the preference between SAGE and examiner-implemented, MoCA using the Assessment Preference questionnaire. Will present the frequency of preference. Will then test if the proportion is equal to 50% or if one of the assessments is significantly preferred over the other.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stem Cell Transplant Complications, 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 31 Aug 2020. 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?

Scores of the PROMIS Cognitive Function, short form 8a (time frame: Before to approximately 100 days after transplant). The study lists 6 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 31 Aug 2020.
