研究概览
简要总结
This study will evaluate whether a time-limited cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) intervention in the post-treatment time period can address body image disturbance (BID) in patients with surgically-treated head and neck cancer (HNC), thereby improving BID and quality of life (QOL).
详细描述
The investigators will complete a single-arm, phase II pilot study of time-limited CBT on BID in patients with surgically-treated HNC. Reliable, validated patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures of BID will be collected before, 1 month and 3 months after the CBT intervention to provide preliminary data on the effectiveness of CBT for BID in patients with surgically-treated HNC, addressing this critical knowledge gap. It is expected that time-limited CBT implemented in the post-treatment period will decrease BID and improve QOL in affected patients.

研究组 & 干预措施
CBT (face to face)
Self-limited cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) delivered via 6 weekly sessions, face-face
Up to one year after completion of treatment, patients with body image disturbance (BID) as determined by a Body Image Scale (BIS) score > 5 will undergo time-limited CBT consisting of 6 weekly sessions. Each session will be guided by the HNC BID module that we develop but customized to each patient's specific concerns. Each session will last ~60 minutes and be conducted one-one with a psychologist. Patients will complete questionnaires prior to CBT and 1 and 3 months after CBT.
干预措施: cognitive behavioral therapy, face to face (Behavioral)
CBT (telemedicine)
Self-limited cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) delivered via 6 weekly sessions, via tablet-based telemedicine platform
Up to one year after completion of treatment, patients with body image disturbance (BID) as determined by a Body Image Scale (BIS) score > 5 will undergo time-limited CBT consisting of 6 weekly sessions. Each session will be guided by the HNC BID module that we develop but customized to each patient's specific concerns. Each session will last ~60 minutes and be conducted one-one with a psychologist. Patients will complete questionnaires prior to CBT and 1 and 3 months after CBT. To overcome the expected travel distance-related barrier to receipt of CBT, patients will receive the intervention via tablet-based telemedicine delivery platform
干预措施: cognitive behavioral therapy, telemedicine (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in Body Image Disturbance
时间窗: Prior to intervention until 3 months after completion of intervention
Change in body image disturbance will be measured using Body Image Scale (BIS) scores from before and 3 months after intervention. The BIS has been validated in oncology patients and is the most widely used scale for BID in oncology. It is a 10-item measure that is scored on a 4-point Likert scale; higher scores indicate greater body image dissatisfaction. It addresses the affective, cognitive, and emotional aspects of body image. There are no subscales.
次要结局
- Change in Quality of Life(Prior to intervention until 3 months after completion of intervention)
- Change in Body Image Coping Strategies(Prior to intervention until 3 months after completion of intervention)
- Change in Body Image Investment(Prior to intervention until 3 months after completion of intervention.)
