简要总结
Determine the effects of the Computerized Symptom Assessment Tool (C-SCAT) versus usual care on the primary outcomes of self-efficacy for symptom management and symptom self-management behaviors
详细描述
This is a multi-site two-group randomized control trial (RCT) design to evaluate the effects of the Computerized Symptom Assessment Tool (C-SCAT) for improving symptom self-management versus usual care in 126 adolescents and young adults (AYAs) who are within the first three months of a diagnosis of cancer and who are receiving cancer treatment. For this study, cancer treatment will be defined as a prescribed infusion ( e.g., chemotherapy, immunotherapy).

研究组 & 干预措施
Computerized Symptom Assessment Tool C-SCAT
Participants will be asked to complete the C-SCAT at three of their clinic visits for cancer treatment in addition to usual care for assessing symptoms. This intervention period will last up to about 12 weeks, depending on cancer treatment schedule (for example, every 2, 3 or 4 weeks).
干预措施: Computerized Symptom Capture Tool (C-SCAT) Intervention
Usual Care Control Group
Participants will follow usual care for cancer symptoms for up to 12 weeks, depending on how cancer treatment schedule (for example, every 2, 3 or 4 weeks).
干预措施: Usual Care Control
结局指标
主要结局
Effects of the C-SCAT versus usual care on the primary outcomes of self-efficacy for symptom management immediately post intervention (Time 1) by comparing the scores from the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System®; PROMIS® Scale.
时间窗: 2 weeks post intervention (Timepoint 1)
Self-efficacy for symptom management will be assessed with the PROMIS® Self Efficacy for Symptom Management Scale that contains 28 items and assess the person's current level of confidence to manage/control symptoms, manage symptoms in different settings, and keep symptoms from interfering with work, relationships, or activities. Response options are on a 5-point Likert scale (1=I am not confident at all; 5=I am very confident). Scores are summed across items, and higher scores indicate greater self-efficacy
Effects of the C-SCAT versus usual care on the primary outcomes of symptom self-management behaviors immediately post intervention (Time 1) by comparing the scores from the Symptom Self-management Behaviors Tool (SSMBT).
时间窗: 2 weeks post intervention (Timepoint 1)
The SSMBT contains 12 items with two subscales: Manage Symptoms (8 items) that addresses behaviors related to managing their symptoms, and Talk to Healthcare Provider (4 items) that addresses behaviors related to communicating with their HCP about their symptoms. Items are scored using a 5-point Likert scale (0=never/rarely; 4=always). Scores are summed across all items. Higher scores indicate higher engagement in SS-M behaviors.
Effects of the C-SCAT versus usual care on the primary outcomes of symptom self-management behaviors at follow up (Time 2) by comparing the scores from the Symptom Self-management Behaviors Tool (SSMBT).
时间窗: 4 weeks following Timepoint 1 (Timepoint 2)
