- Brief Summary
PROACT is a prospective master protocol for a cohort study focused on evaluating the implementation of integrated proactive pathways of supportive care.
This is an observational cohort study in the context of a quality-of-care initiative.
It will be evaluated by its impact on patient's distress measured by the NCCN's Distress thermometer at 12 weeks after entering the pathway.
- Detailed Description
The primary study endpoint of PROACT is patient distress and supportive care needs (NCCN Distress Thermometer and NCCN Problem list) over a 12-week period after the supportive care needs assessment and referrals in the context of a PROACT pathway.
Secondary study endpoints include:
1. To evaluate the Reach of each pathway through the number of patients who participated in supportive care needs' assessment and in each supportive care intervention (administrative review of attendance log)
2. To evaluate the diversity of patients included in each pathways through evaluation of sociodemographic and economic profile (Socioeconomic and demographic self-reported questionnaire)
3. To evaluate the impact of each pathway and each supportive care intervention on patient's overall health status (EQ-E5-EL)
4. To evaluate the impact of each pathway and each supportive care intervention on patient's quality of life (EORTC QLQ C30)
5. To evaluate the impact of each pathway and each supportive care intervention on symptom burden (MDASI)
6. To evaluate the impact of each pathway and each supportive care intervention on anxiety (HADS)
7. To evaluate the impact of each pathway and each supportive care intervention on Insomnia levels (ISI)
8. To evaluate the impact of each pathway and each supportive care intervention on sexual health (EORTC SHQ-C22)
9. To evaluate the Physician's Adoption of each pathway through the proportion of physicians referring patients to the pathways (referral log)
10. To evaluate patient's adoption through the proportion of patients adhering to supportive care interventions as intended (attendance log)
11. To evaluate patient experience and satisfaction with the pathways (PACIC and adhoc satisfaction questionnaires.
12. To evaluate implementation in through a qualitative analyses of experience, implementation barriers and facilitators (focus groups with patients and providers)
13. To plan for Maintenance of the pathway through a cost effectiveness analysis.
14. To evaluate the impact of each pathway and each supportive care intervention on Intestinal Symptoms (LARS score). if indicated for the specific population
15. To evaluate the impact of each pathway and each supportive care intervention on Anal Incontinence (Wexner score). if indicated for the specific population
16. To evaluate the impact of each pathway and each supportive care intervention on Urinary Symptoms (USP score). if indicated for the specific population
17. To evaluate the impact of each pathway and each supportive care intervention on Hematologic Cancer (FACT-BMT)
18. To evaluate the impact of each pathway and each supportive care intervention on Montgomery Borgatta Caregiver Burden Scale. if indicated for the specific population.
19. To evaluate the healthcare professionals participating in the pathway to screen vulnerability and prevent treatment related burden (F-SUS)
This is a master protocol study that is conducted by collecting sub-studies for each supportive care intervention which share key design components and operational aspects leading to a higher level of coordination than the one achieved by independently conducted studies.
Methodology: it is a mix of quantitative and qualitative methods to assess the Reach, Efficacy and potential for Adoption, while identifying barriers to Implementation and strategies to Maintain the pathway in the institution guided by the RE-AIM framework. Data collection will allow evaluation in a macro level (integrated supportive care pathway including supportive care needs assessment and tailored multidisciplinary referrals) and in a micro level (separated for each supportive care intervention).

Group Intervention Description PROACT Supportive Care pathways Supportive Care Pathway This is a prospective cohort study including patients participating in institutional supportive care pathways at diagnosis, during treatment and after treatment.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Patient distress over a 12-week period after the integrated supportive care needs assessment. Patient distress collected with NCCN Distress Thermometer
Patient unmet needs over a 12-week period after the integrated supportive care needs assessment. Patient unmet needs collected with problem list from NCCN Distress thermometer
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Impact of the pathway in Quality of life week 12, and 24 Quality of life measured by the EORTC QLQ C30
Impact of the pathway in symptom burden week 12, and 24 Symptom burden measured by the MDASI Questionnaire.
Impact of the pathway on insomnia levels week 12, and 24 Insomnia measured by ISI
\*only for patients reporting insomnia at baselineProvider Experience - Qualitative evaluation week 12 Focus groups with healthcare providers to explore overall experience, workload and implementation challenges
Impact of the pathway on Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Bone Marrow Transplant week 12, week 24 Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Bone Marrow Transplant measured by FACT-BMT score.
\*only for patients with Hematologic CancerPatient Experience week 12 Patient experience measured by the PACIC questionnaire.
Reach of the pathway week 12 Proportion of patients who accepted the supportive care needs assessment (descriptive numbers from attendance log)
Diversity of pathway participants week 12 Socioeconomic characteristics of participants in the pathway measure by a self-reported socioeconomic questionnaire
Impact of the pathway on anxiety levels week 12, and 24 Anxiety measured by HADS
\* only for patients reporting anxiety at baselineImpact of the pathway on sexual health week 12, and 24 Sexual health measured by EORTC SHQ-C22
\*only for patients reporting sexual dysfunction at baselineAdoption of Patient week 12 Proportion and of patients that fully adopted each supportive care intervention (e.g.; in the after cancer pathway: attendance to consultations/seminaries/classes, completion of a supportive care program, usage data for Resilience app).
Maintenance of the pathway through a cost effectiveness analysis (QALYs) week 12 Maintenance of the pathway through a cost effectiveness analysis. Costs from the perspective of the French national health insurance will be assessed during the study period. This will be calculated by administrative data review of internal allocated resources for pathway delivery and estimated costs of use of hospital services (unplanned hospitalization, consultations, and emergency visits recorded in the electronic medical records).
QALYs (quality-adjusted life years) will be measured using utility values derived from the EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D-5L) (https://euroqol.org/) for French general population (Andrade et al. PharmacoEconomics 2020). QALYs will be computed combining survival time by utility values.Impact of the pathway on caregiver burden week 12 Caregiver burden measured by Montgomery Borgatta Caregiver Burden Scale.
Impact of the pathway in overall health status week 12, and 24 Overall health status measured by the EQ-ED-5L
Adoption of Physician week 12 Proportion of physicians referring patients to the supportive care pathway (descriptive numbers from referral logs)
