About this study

Official title: Patient-Centered Care-Improving the Patient Experience in the Management of Adverse Events (AEs) Associated With Antibody Drug Conjugates (ADCs)

A study uniquely focused on system-based practice change, measuring the impact of educational interventions on both patients and clinicians for the recognition and management of treatment-related adverse effects for HER2+/HER2 low breast cancer patients on or about to start on HER2 targeted antibody drug conjugates (fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki or ado-trastuzumab emtansine) and shared decision-making methodologies to improve adverse event (AE) management and patient-clinician communications.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Educational InterventionBehavioural

    The research-specific educational intervention is the enhancement of communications and SDM in AE management.

    To this end, interventions will include pre-recorded videos that address:

    1. SDM methodologies (~30 minutes)
    2. Simulated case role play interactions between a standardized patient actor and clinician participant (~60 minutes)
    3. In depth presentation on AEs associated with HER2-targeted ADC treatments, and the management of these AEs (~45 minutes)

    Clinician participant educational intervention videos and patient participant educational intervention videos will be slightly different, as they are each presented from their specific perspectives.

What is being measured

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

  1. Decisional Conflict Scale (DCS) Score

    16-item assessment of a person's uncertainty in making a healthcare choice. Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale from 0 (strongly agree) to 4 (strongly disagree). The total score is the sum of responses and ranges from 0-64; lower scores indicate less uncertainty. Assessed among patients only.

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Decisional Conflict Scale (DCS) Score

    16-item assessment of a person's uncertainty in making a healthcare choice. Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale from 0 (strongly agree) to 4 (strongly disagree). The total score is the sum of responses and ranges from 0-64; lower scores indicate less uncertainty. Assessed among patients only.

    Measured: Month 3

  3. Decisional Conflict Scale (DCS) Score

    16-item assessment of a person's uncertainty in making a healthcare choice. Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale from 0 (strongly agree) to 4 (strongly disagree). The total score is the sum of responses and ranges from 0-64; lower scores indicate less uncertainty. Assessed among patients only.

    Measured: Month 6

  4. Patient HER2-Targeted ADC Related Side Effect Pre-Test Score

    6 questions assessing ability to recognize HER2-targeted ADC-related AEs and how they are managed. 4 items are multiple choice questions with (1) correct answer. The final 2 items are rated on a Likert scale from 5 (Always) to 1 (Never). The score is calculated as the sum of (a) total correct answers to items 1-4 and (b) responses to items 5-6. The total score ranges from 2-14; higher scores indicate greater ability to recognize HER2-targeted ADC-related AEs and how they are managed.

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Educational Intervention in people with Breast Cancer, run by NYU Langone Health 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 9 inclusion and 8 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Mar 2026. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Lucia Greco (718-687-8702, Lucia.Greco@nyulangone.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Decisional Conflict Scale (DCS) Score (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 9 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 30 Mar 2026.
