About this study

This is a prospective, multi-centred cohort study whereby the EUNASS Study questionnaire will be administered electronically to identify needs of melanoma survivors, the extent to which these needs are being met, and identify areas which have the greatest need for development. It will also evaluate behaviour in relation to sun protection and skin self-examination (SSE). It will be a self-completed questionnaire.

Qualitative work using semi-structured interviews will explore the needs of melanoma survivors in greater depth, will present examples of potential interventions to improve SSE and explore factors that determine the likelihood of engaging in an intervention which can address unmet needs, such as improving SSE. Taken together, the data will provide the evidence base to inform the development of an intervention to improve SSE, which can subsequently be tested in secondary care services.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Melanoma, Stage I and Melanoma Stage III, run by Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 4 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 22 Nov 2022. 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 Kingdom. 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?

Mixed methods: analysis of a) Patient questionnaire responses and b) Semi-structured interviews (time frame: 2 years). 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 22 Nov 2022.
