About this study

Official title: UV Dosimetry Feedback in Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer Patients

This study aims to characterize UV exposures among NMSC patients (those with a history of skin cancer) and to pilot an innovative behavioral intervention to decrease modifiable UV exposures. It will use UV dosimeters to objectively measure UV exposure and provide time and activity specific UV data on an individual level. These data will be used to develop a targeted and personalized behavioral feedback plan with counseling aimed at effective sun exposure behavior change

Read the detailed description

The study will focus on helping to prevent NMSC and its associated morbidity through learning when patients are unintentionally exposed to extreme UV radiation. It will then help to create manageable and realistic behavioral interventions to reduce exposure, while also educating patients of the dangers of abundant sun exposure.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • UV CounselingBehavioural

    Participants will self-report their knowledge and attitudes related to UV exposure. They will then wear a dosimeter for 3 weeks. After, the study team will counsel the participants on their UV levels and exposure, creating a personal plan and advice for avoiding sun exposure before letting the participants wear the dosimeter for an additional 3 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Identify Discrepancies of Self-Reported Sun Exposure and Actual Sun Exposure

    Measured using individual dosimeters and comparing it to what participants state they believe their level of sun exposure is

    Measured: Start of study to end of study, up to 3 months

  2. Identify Discrepancies of Self-Reported Sun Exposure and Actual Sun Exposure

    Compare specific sun exposure behaviors responsible for the level of exposure versus what could be done to lessen it

    Measured: Start of study to end of study, up to 3 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Behavioral Intervention and immediate follow-up

    Participants will receive a personalized feedback plan and the success of the plan will be measured through individual dosimetry. We will track real time change in sun exposure based on repeat UV dosimetry.

    Measured: Start of study to end of study, up to 3 months

  2. Long Term Follow Up - longitudinal change in sun exposure based on dosimetry

    Track the longitudinal change in sun exposure comparing baseline UV dosimetry measurements to 3 month follow up dosimetry measurements to determine if the changes observed in outcome 3 are maintained.

    Measured: Start of study to end of study, up to 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing UV Counseling in people with Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer, run by University of Colorado, Denver 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 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Sep 2019. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Identify Discrepancies of Self-Reported Sun Exposure and Actual Sun Exposure (time frame: Start of study to end of study, up to 3 months). The study lists 2 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 6 Sep 2019.
