About this study
Official title: Personalized Cancer Support for Young Adults
This pilot clinical trial is intended to compare the effect of a psychosocial support tool for young adult (YA)cancer survivors - including high-quality information about their cancer combined with evidence-based psychosocial support - to a support tool providing cancer-specific information alone (minus psychosocial modules). This tool, called Thrive Track, will be for YA patients aged 20-39 with thyroid, melanoma, or testicular cancer. Young adult survivors frequently experience persistent worry and distress that can interfere with coping and reduce quality of life. They are also particularly vulnerable to the emotional impact of cancer and may not have adequate support to manage these concerns. The enhanced version of Thrive Track includes personalized emotional support content and strategies designed to help patients better manage worry and distress. Adding these emotional support tools may provide greater benefit than survivorship education alone in strengthening young adult survivors' ability to manage their emotional well-being.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Cancer related worry
Cancer-related worry will be evaluated using two 8-item validated scales:
- Cancer Worry Scale (CWS)
- An adapted cancer worry scale
Overall as well as stratified analyses (by recruitment source and cancer type) will be performed. We will compare mean scores on the two scales between intervention and control subjects at 3 months post intervention. Scores on the CWS scale range from 8 (minimum) to 32 (maximum), with lower scores indicating less cancer-related worry and more favorable outcomes.
Scores on the adapted cancer worry scale range from 8 (minimum) to 40 (maximum), with lower scores indicating less cancer-related worry and more favorable outcomes.
Measured: 3 months post-enrollment
Cancer related distress
Cancer-related distress will be measured using the National Comprehensive Cancer Network Distress Thermometer.
Scores on the NCCN Distress Thermometer range from 0 (minimum) to 10 (maximum), with lower scores indicating less distress and more favorable outcomes.
Overall as well as stratified analyses (by recruitment source and cancer type) will be performed. We will compare mean scores on the distress thermometer between the intervention and control subjects at 3 months post-intervention using two-sample t-tests.
Measured: 3 months post-enrollment
Secondary outcomes (4)
Knowledge about worry self-management
This outcome will be evaluated using a team-developed 4-item scale. Scores on this scale range from 4 (minimum) to 16 (maximum), with higher scores indicating better knowledge about how to self-manage worry and more favorable outcomes.
Measured: 3 months post-enrollment
Confidence/self-efficacy in the ability to self-manage worry
This outcome will be evaluated using an 11-item scale from the Breast Cancer Self Efficacy Scale (BCSE), adapted for all cancers.
Scores on this scale range from 11 (minimum) to 55 (maximum), with higher scores indicating better self efficacy to manage cancer-related worry and more favorable outcomes.
Measured: At 3 months post-enrollment
Resilience
This outcome will be evaluated using a 6-item validated scale, adapted from the Communication and Attitudinal Self-Efficacy Scale (CASE) and the Cancer Control and Outlook Scale.
Scores on this scale range from 6 (minimum) to 30 (maximum), with higher scores indicating better resilience to deal with cancer and more favorable outcomes.
Measured: At 3 months post-enrollment
Ease of tool use
This outcome will be evaluated using a series of 7 questions designed to help understand the participants' experience using the Thrive Track website.
Measured: At 3 months post-enrollment
