About this study
Official title: A Randomized Controlled, Type 1 Hybrid Effectiveness-implementation Trial Study to Compare the Effectiveness of a Patient-Reported Outcomes (PRO)-Driven Culturally Grounded Supportive Care Navigation in Reducing Healthcare Disparities Among Hispanic/Latinx Patients Receiving Anticancer Therapies
This is a randomized controlled, type 1 hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial to evaluate the effectiveness of a patient-reported outcomes (PRO)-driven culturally grounded supportive care navigation in reducing healthcare disparities among Hispanic/Latinx patients receiving anticancer therapies. The objectives of this study are: (1) to compare the effectiveness of an ePRO-driven culturally grounded supportive care navigation versus usual care (control) in Hispanic/Latinx patients undergoing anticancer treatment; and (2) to elicit perspectives from Hispanic/Latinx patients, healthcare providers, and community partners on how an ePRO-driven culturally grounded supportive care navigation can address health disparities.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Patient-Reported Outcomes (PRO)-driven supportive care navigationOther
Patients within the intervention arm will receive ePRO-driven supportive care navigation consisting of: (1) routine distress screening and care needs assessment; (2) machine learning-based acute care utilization risk prediction; (3) culturally grounded supportive care navigation; and (4) community follow-up.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Emergency department visits, hospitalizations, and urgent care visits
Detailed information regarding emergency department visits, hospitalization, and urgent care visits from the first 3 months of anticancer treatment (after joining the study) will be obtained using electronic medical records, and the UCI Health Data Warehouse.
Measured: baseline and 3 months post-baseline
Secondary outcomes (3)
Health-related quality of life
Quality of life will be measured Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Global Health (PROMIS Global Health), a 10-item Likert scale (questions 1-8 and 10 on a 5-point scale and question 9 on an 11-point scale) instrument yielding two scores, physical health and mental health, where higher scores indicate better health.
Measured: baseline and 3 months post-baseline
Symptom severity
Symptom severity will be assessed by the Edmonton Symptom Assessment System (ESAS), an 11-point Likert scale (0-10) that measures symptom intensity. A change of at least one point is considered clinically meaningful, with higher scores indicating greater symptom burden.
Measured: baseline and 3 months post-baseline
Health literacy
Health literacy will be assessed using the Brief Health Literacy Screening (BHLS) tool, with each item rated on a 5-point scale from 1 to 5, yielding a total score ranging from 3 to 15. Higher scores indicate better health literacy.
Measured: baseline and 3 months post-baseline

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Patient-Reported Outcomes (PRO)-driven supportive care navigation in people with Cancer, run by University of California, Irvine 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 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Aug 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 Fan-Ying Chan, MS (949-738-7135, fanyinc@uci.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Emergency department visits, hospitalizations, and urgent care visits (time frame: baseline and 3 months post-baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07787806, which also lists 17 linked publications.
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 31 Aug 2026.
