About this study

Official title: Assessing Functional Status Needs Via Patient-Reported Outcomes Measures in the Pre-treatment Setting With Metastatic Breast Cancer Patients

The purpose of this single-site non-randomized study is to identify areas of need related to functional status and overall health, including nutrition and mental health in subjects with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). A decline in functional status is observed after breast cancer diagnosis and exacerbated by treatment. Declining functional status impacts the quality of life and can lead to increased comorbidity burden, hospitalization, and increased mortality. Functional status is assessed by specific provider-graded scales. Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) measures may better assess certain aspects of patient health and symptom domains. Thus, potentially supporting the future implementation of effective prehabilitation strategies. This study explores whether a PRO-based survey will identify the physical and emotional health and the social and financial status of patients newly diagnosed with MBC.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Physical activity levels

    Physical activity levels will be measured using the Godin Leisure-Time Exercise Questionnaire. Godin Leisure-Time Exercise Questionnaire has 3 dichotomous questions, answers will be "yes" or "no". There will be reason questions if the answer is no.

    Measured: Baseline

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Acceptability of survey

    Acceptability of survey to subjects will be measured by the percentage of eligible patients who complete the survey.

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Health-related quality of life - FACT-G

    Health-related quality of life will be measured by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (FACT-G) which is a survey assessing physical, emotional, and functional well-being on a Likert-type scale. higher scores demonstrating higher health-related quality of life, from 0 to 4. Higher scores represent better QOL.

    Measured: Baseline

  3. Health-related quality of life - PROMIS

    The patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) survey will assess physical function, fatigue, and social participation. This survey was designed for cancer rehabilitation needs. It asks patients on a Likert-type scale about their ability to perform mobility and activities of daily living tasks along with the frequency of fatigue and ability to participate in vocational and avocational activities.

    Measured: Baseline

  4. Diet quality

    The diet quality will be measured using a modified version of the Rapid Eating Assessment for Participants (REAP-S) survey will assess diet and nutrition quality. For the general population, a score of 32 or higher determines a high-quality/desirable diet. The survey asks about the intake of nutrients including vegetables/fruit, whole grains, types of fat, calcium-rich foods, and others. Responses usually/often receive 1 point, sometimes receive 2 points, and rarely/do not apply to receive 3 points.

    Measured: Baseline

  5. the percentage of subjects referred

    the percentage of subjects referred will be defined as subjects who have been referred to or used Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center supportive services for patients Referral rates will be reported for an array of the University of North Carolina Lineberger supportive services by questionnaire.

    Measured: Baseline

  6. Barriers to access exercise

    Barriers to accessing exercise will be evaluated by questionnaire.

    Measured: Baseline

  7. health-related opinions

    Health-related opinions regarding prehabilitation interventions will be assessed by questionnaire which includes open-ended questions.

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer and Metastasis, run by UNC Lineberger Comprehensive 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 11 Apr 2024. 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?

Physical activity levels (time frame: Baseline). 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 11 Apr 2024.
