About this study

Official title: Determinants of Treatment Decision Making in African American Women Diagnosed With Triple Negative Breast Cancer

This study evaluates what influences treatment decision-making in African American women with triple negative breast cancer. The study also aims to learn about the influence of information sources that support this decision-making process.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. Evaluate the acceptance of treatment recommendations by African American women diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Evaluate the association of beliefs about chemotherapy, self-efficacy, and cancer-specific psychological distress with intention to follow through with treatment.

II. Evaluate the association of intention, Reliance on Formal or Informal Resources, and decisional conflict as predictors of final treatment decision.

III. Evaluate the association of Reliance on Formal or Informal Resources as a moderator of the relationship between intention and final treatment decision.

OUTLINE:

Patients participate in a standard of care treatment planning meeting over 3 hours with members of the multidisciplinary treatment team including, the oncologist, radiologist, oncology surgeon, and social worker. Patients then complete surveys over 20 minutes and within 30 days later. Some patients may participate in interviews over 30 minutes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Anatomic Stage I Breast Cancer AJCC v8 and Anatomic Stage IA Breast Cancer AJCC v8, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center 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 8 inclusion and 3 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 9 Aug 2023. 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 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?

Proportion of patients who accept the recommended treatment plan (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). 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 9 Aug 2023.
