简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the utility and effectiveness of a decision aid in cisplatin-intolerant patients with locally advanced cervical cancer.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- What is the effectiveness of the decision aid in reducing decisional conflict?
- What is the utility of the decision aid in preparing for decision-making?
Participants will be asked to accomplish the Decisional Conflict Scale before and after using the decision aid.
Researchers will compare patients given routine care and the decision aid with patients given routine care to see if the decision aid reduces decisional conflict.
详细描述
In locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC), adding chemotherapy (ChT) to radiotherapy (RT) improves survival at the cost of increased toxicity. Among patients with cisplatin contraindications, compliance to RT may be compromised. Shared decision-making (SDM) allows for more patient engagement in the decision-making process and decision implementation planning. In cancer-related decision-making, patient decision aids (PtDA) facilitate the SDM process and have increased patient knowledge and satisfaction and decreased decisional conflict and attitudinal barriers improved patient satisfaction and treatment compliance.
The CECIL study is a two-phase study to develop, validate and test the effectiveness of a PtDA for cisplatin-intolerant LACC patients faced with the decision of adding ChT to RT. Phase 1 is a mixed-methods study to develop a PtDA prototype and determine its content validity and user acceptability. Phase 2 is a block-randomized clinical trial to determine its effectiveness in reducing decisional conflict and its utility in preparing for decision-making. Adult women with biopsy-proven untreated LACC with cisplatin contraindications will be included in this trial.

盲法说明
Given the nature of the intervention, true blinding could not be done on the participant, who is also the assessor. Blinding is necessary to control for participant expectation bias and participant performance bias. The provider (gynecologic oncologist) of the standard of care (standard consultation) is blinded to the subsequent assignment to either arm.

研究组 & 干预措施
Routine care
Routine in-house workflow for initial and follow-up consultation, disclosure of diagnosis, and apprisal and counseling regarding treatment options
Patient decision aid
Routine in-house workflow for initial and follow-up consultation, disclosure of diagnosis, and apprisal and counseling regarding treatment options plus provision of a decision aid after the initial consultation
干预措施: CECIL Patient Decision Aid (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Decisional conflict
时间窗: Prior to the second consultation visit (for treatment decision and implementation planning), usually within one week
Decisional Conflict Scale (DCS) scores of ≥25 will indicate significant decisional conflict. The proportion of participants having pretest (baseline) and posttest decisional conflict scores of ≥25 for each group will be reported.
次要结局
- Utility in preparation for decision-making(After use of the patient decision aid and prior to the second consultation visit (for treatment decision and implementation planning), usually within one week)
