About this study
Official title: Medico-economic Evaluation of the ONCORAL Program of Multidisciplinary ONCOlogic Interventions Between Town and Hospital (Doctor-pharmacist-nurse) for Ambulatory Patients Under oRAL Anticancer Drugs Versus Usual Care
Economic impact of cancer treatments is increasing for years: increase of number of patients (385 000 new occurrences in 2015), increase of life expectancies, chronicization of diseases and increase of therapeutic innovation costs.
Oral anticancer drugs allow the ambulatory turn in oncologic treatments, avoid hospitalizations dues to injectable chemotherapies and improve patient autonomy. In real life situation, these drugs still remain linked to significant drug iatrogenic effects: prevalent adverse events and potentially serious ones, drugs interactions for one other patient, considered as major in 15-20% cases, and non-observance for 30-50% patients.

The resultant care overconsumption and the high cost of new oral targeted therapies appear as a substantial financial charge to the Health related program. Securing oral chemotherapy and their good practice therefore represent a real economic challenge and lead health care professionals to develop town-hospital programs of ambulatory patient's follow-up under oral anticancer drug in response of third Cancer Plan.
Benefice of such interventions are proved on observance, management of adverse events and drug interactions.
However, the effectiveness of these programs has not been evaluated and no studies have been conducted in France.
The Investigators propose here to carry out a medico-economic study of high level of proof of the ONCORAL program. This study will be the first evaluation of the effectiveness of a program for monitoring outpatient oral cancer patients versus usual care.
The results of this study will contribute to the national reflection on the path of care of patients treated by oral chemotherapy, on the assessment of needs and the evolution of the supply of care and its financing.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
ONCORAL therapeutic educationBehavioural
Multidisciplinary program that includes informative cessions with a hospital pharmacist about the anticancer drug: information is given to the patients on adverse events and their managements, optimizing drug dosage plans. Moreover, information is shared with town partners: doctor, pharmacists, and nurses.
Standard of careBehavioural
In the group of standard of care, patients will have interviews with a clinical research associate only dedicated to the record of data for outcomes assessments.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Interventional Arm | Experimental | Application of the ONCORAL program of multidisciplinary ONCOlogic interventions between town and hospital (doctor-pharmacist-nurse) for ambulatory patients under oRAL anticancer drugs Receives: Behavioral: ONCORAL therapeutic education |
| Standard of care | Sham comparator | Patients in the control group will receive regular follow-up from their oncologist, but no more that the standard care. Receives: Behavioral: Standard of care |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Evaluate efficiency of ONCORAL program for ambulatory patients under oral anticancer drugs versus usual care
Efficiency is calculated on the double dimension cost and year of life corrected by quality of life (QALY).
Measured: Month 12
Secondary outcomes (21)
Evaluate the cost price in charge for the two strategies
Medico-economic datas will be assessed in parallel of the clinical study. All costs for Health related program will be added during 12 months : nonscheduled hospitalizations due to drugs issues, medical consultations, time spent by the hospital pharmacist, time spent by the nurse, time spent with town partners sharing information, biological or radiological exams done, nursing in town or at home.
Measured: Month 12
Patient's quality of life, measured with the EQ-5D-3L (EuroQol Group-5 dimensions-3 levels) questionnaire
The questionnaire is a descriptive system comprises five dimensions. Each dimension has 3 levels : no problems, some problems, and extreme problems. EQ-5D health states, may be converted into a single summary index by applying a formula that essentially attaches values (also called weights) to each of the levels in each dimension. The averages of the EQ-5D-3L scores, summarized and for each sub-dimension, will be calculated in each group at baseline, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-inclusion.
Measured: at inclusion, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months post inclusion
Budget impact analysis of 12-months of ONCORAL care.
Costs of the introduction of ONCORAL program on the Health Insurance budget.
Measured: 12 months
Oral anti-cancer dose taken relative to the dose of the marketing authorization
For each patient, the number of oral anti-cancer units really taken by the patient will be calculated from the data obtained by the delivery of treatments (and reported units) in city pharmacy or retrocession. This number will be compared to the total number of units that should have been taken if he had received the treatment in accordance with the marketing authorization of the oral anticancer drug. In each group and for each time, the averages, standard deviations, and quartiles observed in each arm will be calculated.
Measured: 3, 6 and 12 months post-inclusion
Reasons for modifications of relative dose-intensity
For each patient, the number of oral anti-cancer units actually taken by the patient will be calculated from the data from the delivery of treatments in town pharmacy or retrocession and reported units. This number will be related to the total number of units that should have been taken if he had received the treatment in accordance with the AMM of the oral anticancer drug. For each reason type of changes in relative dose-intensity, and for the causes of the changes, the proportions observed in each of the groups will be calculated
Measured: 3, 6 and 12 months post-inclusion
Observance of oral anti-cancer drugs
Adherence will be measured with a 6-item medication adherence scale (adherence will be defined as a score ≤ 2) and the rate of prescription renewal by the ambulatory pharmacy (adherence will be defined as a rate ≥80%).
Measured: 3, 6 and 12 months post-inclusion
Adverse events related to oral anti-cancer drug
For each type of adverse event related to SOC oral anticancer, and for each CTCAE grade, the proportions observed in each group will be calculated between baseline and 12 months. The clinical consequences according to the NCCMERP scale will be described; their proportions will be calculated for each group.
Measured: From baseline to 12 months
Drug interactions
For each type of drug interaction (contraindication, not recommended association, precaution of use) related to the oral anticancer drug between the inclusion and 12 months, the proportions observed in each of the groups will be calculated. The clinical consequences according to the DDI Predictor software will be described.
Measured: From baseline to 12 months
Medication errors
For each type of drug error confirmed and related to the oral anticancer drug between baseline and 12 months, the proportions observed in each group will be calculated. The clinical consequences according to the NCCMERP scale will be described; their proportions will be calculated for each group.
Measured: From baseline to 12 months
Overal survival evaluation
The overall survival rate of the disease will be estimated up to 12 months post-inclusion using a Kaplan-Meier model. A Log-rank test will be implemented to compare overall survival rates between the two groups.
Measured: 12 months
Progression free survival evaluation
The progression-free survival rate of the disease will be estimated up to 12 months post-inclusion using a Kaplan-Meier model. A Log-rank test will be implemented to compare progression free survival rates between the two groups.
Measured: 12 months
Patient Satisfaction Score for Therapeutic care
The mean scores in SAT-MED Q (Treatment Satisfaction with Medicines Questionnaire) scale will be calculated for each of the two groups. The Sat-Med Q is a self-questionnaire of seventeen questions grouped into six elements; effectiveness, side effects, comfort of use, the general opinion of the patient, evaluation of the effect of the treatment on the patient's daily life, as well as the quality of the follow-up and the information provided by the patients. The answers are expressed on a scale of 5 points. from "No, not at all = 0 points" to "Yes, many = 4 points". Totaling the direct scores of the items yields a total composite score ranging between 0 and 68. The resultant total composite score can be transformed to a more intuitive and easier to understand metric with a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 100, using a mathematic expression.
Measured: 3, 6, 9 and 12 months
Disease representation from patient
The mean total scores and in each dimension of the B-IPQ (Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire) scale will be calculated for each of the two groups. The Brief IPQ has nine items. All of the items except the causal question are rated using a 0-to- 10 response scale. Five of the items assess cognitive illness representations, two of the items assess emotional representations and one item assesses illness comprehensibility. Assessment of the causal representation is by an openended response item. A mixed repeated measures model will be realized to estimate its evolution. The link between variation in disease representations between inclusion and final assessment and adherence, dose-relative intensity, and quality of life will be tested using a multivariate linear regression model.
Measured: baseline, 6 months and 12 months
Treatment representation from patient's point of view
The total average scores of the BMQ scale will be calculated in each dimension for each of the two groups. A mixed repeated measures model will be realized to estimate its evolution. The relationship between variation in treatment representations and adherence, dose-relative intensity, and quality of life between inclusion and final assessment will be tested using a multivariate linear regression model.
Measured: baseline, 6 months and 12 months
Perceived social support
This criterion is in the form of 4-level Likert scales, concerning 3 items (support of the person with whom the patient lives in a couple, support of family members, support of friends and relatives), and for each two-dimensional item (psychological support and material support). Each dimension of each item will be analyzed independently. At each measurement, the response will be compared to that given during the previous visit. A break in perceived support will be considered if the response goes from 3 "a lot" to 0 "not at all", 1 "a little" or 2 "moderately". At each time, the percentage of patients with perceived support disruption will be calculated for each item and dimension, in each of the two groups, and these percentages will be compared. An analysis of the factors influencing the occurrence of perceived support disruption will be performed using a multivariate linear regression model.
Measured: 6 and 12 months
Health locus of control of the patient
The average scores on the Doran TSCT scale will be calculated in each group. A mixed repeated measures model will be realized to estimate its evolution. The link between self-management variation (TSCT score) and adherence, dose-relative intensity, and quality of life between inclusion and final assessment will be tested using a linear regression multivariate model.
Measured: baseline, 6 months and 12 months post-inclusion
Quality of life of patients
The averages of the QLQ-C30 scores, summarized and for each sub-dimension, will be calculated in each group. A mixed repeated-measures model will be constructed to estimate the evolution of quality of life over time and compare it between the two groups.
Measured: baseline, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-inclusion
For investigational arm : patient's reported adverse events
A description of the number, the percentages according to the Standard Of Care, and a list of the modalities of management of the adverse events grades 2, 3 and 4 reported by the patient in his city-hospital liaison booklet related to the oral anticancer drug will be performed.
Measured: From baseline to 12 months
Satisfaction of first resort (doctor, pharmacist and liberal nurse)
The averages, standard deviations, and quartiles observed will be calculated for each category of interviewee on his satisfaction with the ONCORAL program (with the use of a visual analogic scale EVA, from 0 to 10).
Measured: 12 months
Satisfaction of patient
The averages, standard deviations, and quartiles observed will be calculated for the patient on his satisfaction with the ONCORAL program (with the use of a visual analogic scale EVA, from 0 to 10).
