Observational Longitudinal Study of Pain in Men With Metastatic Castrate-Resistant Prostate Cancer
- Conditions
- Prostate Cancer
- Interventions
- Behavioral: Webcore telephone survey system
- Registration Number
- NCT01617174
- Lead Sponsor
- Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
- Brief Summary
The first goal of this study is to learn more about the experience of pain and other symptoms in men being treated for advanced prostate cancer. The second goal of the study is to identify reliable ways of measuring pain which will be used in future clinical trials of treatments for advanced prostate cancer.

- Arm && Interventions
Group Intervention Description assessments completed by patients Webcore telephone survey system A single-arm observational study will be conducted at three institutions in the Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Consortium (PCCTC): Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center; Johns Hopkins; and Oregon Health \& Science University. MSKCC is the coordinating center. The target enrollment is 400 patients, with at least 250 experiencing "moderate or worse" pain intensity at baseline, defined as a score of ≥4, the preferred regulatory cutoff.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method pain score 2 years Pain score changes will be correlated with each of the following: patient rating of change in pain, as well as changes in patient functional status, analgesic use, and various measures of disease status (imaging, PSA, circulating tumor cells). The distribution-based approach is to estimate meaningful change as one-half a standard deviation of the sample mean pain score.
