About this study

Official title: Development and Evaluation of an Adaptive Virtual Consultation Tool for Prostate Cancer Patients

This clinical trial aims to design and validate an adaptive virtual consultation tool (AVCT) for men with prostate cancer (PC). An AVCT utilizes health literacy assessments in combination with learning preferences and individual disease characteristics to provide focused and guided knowledge on PC tailored to the individual patient. Using an AVCT to enhance patient education may improve patient understanding and result in higher patient satisfaction with treatment decisions amongst men with PC.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To develop an adaptive virtual consultation tool for PC (AVCT):

Ia. To incorporate and integrate the inputs from a diverse group of patients (including minorities), patient advocates, nursing, physicians and education experts in the design process for the adaptive consultation tool; Ib. Employ user centered iterative design approach to develop an adaptive learning tool on mobile devices that is tailored to individuals based on symptoms, health literacy, learning style, and disease specific characteristics.

II. To assess the feasibility, acceptability and usability of AVCT:

IIa. To validate the design approach and customization rules at the completion of the participatory design process using a convenience sample of subjects through assessment of system interaction logs and qualitative feedback from users on cognition, ease-of-use, usability and customization efficacy; IIb. To utilize the feasibility study results in (2a) to refine the interface, information presentation, and adaptive customization approach.

III. To determine the efficacy of AVCT using a small-scale comparative study:

IIIa. To design and execute a three arm comparative study consisting of adaptive virtual consultation, non-adaptive virtual consultation and standard-practice information-only control intervention and assess the comparative efficacy of the tool on the main outcome variable, satisfaction with health care episode; IIIb. To measure changes in other outcome variables at baseline, post-intervention, 3-month and 12-month duration; IIIc. To analyze the mediating influence of decision self-efficacy and a number of moderating factors including preference for decision-making participation and health literacy on outcome variables.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 arms.

ARM 1: Patients participate in an adaptive virtual consultation on trial.

ARM 2: Patients participate in a non-adaptive virtual consultation on trial.

ARM 3: Patients receive information-only on trial.

After completion of study intervention, patients are followed up at 3- and 12-months post treatment decision.

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient satisfaction measured by post utilization surveys

    Patient's satisfaction is to be measured by post utilization surveys using general Likert scale assessment tools.

    Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize the data at each study time point. For all the measures collected at multiple time points, generalized linear equations (GEE) will be used to evaluate the effect of treatment and time adjusting for usage pattern.

    Measured: 3-month post treatment decision

  2. Patient satisfaction measured by post utilization surveys

    Patient's satisfaction is to be measured by post utilization surveys using general Likert scale assessment tools.

    Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize the data at each study time point. For all the measures collected at multiple time points, generalized linear equations (GEE) will be used to evaluate the effect of treatment and time adjusting for usage pattern.

    Measured: 12-month post treatment decision

  3. Health outcomes for cancer recurrence using PSA

    Measured by Prostate specific antigen ( PSA )

    Measured: Baseline

  4. Health outcomes for urinary function using IPSS

    Measured using International Prostate symptom score (IPSS)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Health Education, Informational Intervention and Survey Administration in people with Prostate Carcinoma, run by Mayo Clinic 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 2 inclusion and 1 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Oct 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 was stopped early (reason given: Low/slow accrual). 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?

Patient satisfaction measured by post utilization surveys (time frame: 3-month post treatment decision). The study lists 11 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 22 Oct 2024.
