Trial summary

Studies indicate that the majority of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients find it important to be involved in treatment decision making. However, in a recent study it has been reported that about 40% of the participants experienced decision conflict and feel uninformed(1). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Improving Decision Making by Developing and Testing a Progressive Web App About Patient Decision Aid for Stage I-II Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Studies indicate that the majority of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients find it important to be involved in treatment decision making. However, in a recent study it has been reported that about 40% of the participants experienced decision conflict and feel uninformed(1). The investigators therefore developed a patient decision aid (PDA) for stage I-II NSCLC patients, that informs and empowers patients to help decide between stereotactic radiotherapy (SBRT) and surgery.

Read the detailed description

A pilot study in which semi-structured interviews will be conducted (Qualitative research).In addition, patients will be asked to fill in a questionnaire about the usability of the prototype. A small group of patients (n=15) that have been treated for early stage NSCLC in the past will be asked to participate. The persons involved in this pilot are asked to assess a patient decision tool and will be interviewed only once. After the interview they will be asked to fill in a questionnaire. The burden of the pilot study is very low. No medical examinations or procedures will be carried out. Pilot study in lung cancer patients treated in the past with radiotherapy or surgery. The participants will all give informed consent. The investigators are using a qualitative design. Semi-structured interviews will be carried out. In addition the investigators will ask the participants to fill in a questionnaire with 35 questions.

No age limits are defined. The pilot study will be carried out in stage I-II NSCLC patients who were treated with radiotherapy or surgery, at least 6 months ago. Patients should currently be free of disease, no disease progression. The semi-structured interview consists of 17 open questions and text recorded, in order to be able to analyze the date afterwards. The interviews will take place when the patients come to the hospital for a regular follow-up appointment. After the interview, the patient is asked to fill in a questionnaire about the usability of the decision aid. In total, the expected duration is about 2 hours.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer Stage I and Lung Cancer Stage II, run by Maastricht University at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Netherlands. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Usability of PDA (time frame: 1 year). 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 25 Aug 2021.
