About this study

Official title: Evaluation of an Electronic Post-Treatment Surveillance Program for Prostate Cancer Survivors (eHealth)

The purpose of this single institution pilot study is to determine the feasibility of implementing an eHealth prostate cancer surveillance program through the eVisit electronic medical record patient portal. The investigators will assess patient compliance and satisfaction with eVisit follow up care in lieu of in person clinic visits.

Read the detailed description

Telehealth offers the opportunity to transform cancer surveillance into a patient-centered effort with shared leadership between patient and oncologist. Peer-to-peer electronic communications can improve the collaboration between oncologist and primary care provider (PCP) as patients transition back to primary care as their primary health provider. The investigators propose to test a patient-centered eHealth surveillance program utilizing novel asynchronous telehealth tools to provide patient-reported outcome symptom monitoring using the electronic medical record's patient portal (eVisit).

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
eVisitExperimentalThe study intervention will be an electronically performed surveillance program replacing face-to-face clinic follow-up visits. At 3 month intervals for 1 year, the patient will receive an email reminder generated by the patient portal to complete lab testing and eVisit questionnaire.
Receives: Other: eVisit

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of patients who complete all scheduled eVisits at the end of follow-up

    Defined as completion of labwork and at least 80% of the questions asked at each eVisit

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Feasibility of enrollment to the eVisit program

    Defined as the percentage of patients who are approached for eVisit and ultimately enroll

    Measured: 12 months

  2. eVisit participant reported satisfaction

    Reported as the summary score from validated Brief Patient Satisfaction 10-item scale instrument assessed from "1/strongly agree" through "5/strongly disagree"

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Number of participants with cancer treatment related toxicities

    Defined specifically as CTCAE Grade 2 or higher GI, GU, hormonal, and sexual toxicities

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Number of eVisit participants with cancer recurrence

    Defined as biochemical progression (PSA >0.2 ng/ml for prostatectomy patients or nadir + 2 ng/ml for radiation patients) or metastasis (by imaging)

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Financial impact of the eVisit program on participants compared to in person follow up clinic visits

    Defined by the financial burden assessment completed by participants, scored from "0/not at all" through "4/very much"

    Measured: 12 months

  6. Financial impact of the eVisit program on Duke University Hospital (institution) compared to in person follow up

    Defined by percentage of participants/eVisits covered by insurance

    Measured: 12 months

  7. Financial impact of the eVisit program on Duke University Hospital (institution) compared to in person follow up

    Defined by qualitative analysis of time commitment for providers

    Measured: 12 months

  8. Financial impact of the eVisit program on Duke University Hospital (institution) compared to in person follow up

    Defined by qualitative analysis of reimbursement process

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing eVisit in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Duke University at 4 sites 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 5 inclusion and 2 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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?

Proportion of patients who complete all scheduled eVisits at the end of follow-up (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 10 Jun 2021.
