简要总结
Black and Latina women experience disparities in supportive and palliative care access and outcomes. The goal of the proposed pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a community navigator delivered supportive care intervention for historically underserved populations of women with metastatic breast cancer.
详细描述
Primary Objectives:
- Establish the feasibility and acceptability of an adapted navigator delivered supportive care model called ACCESS to address supportive care needs for Black and Latina women with Metastatic Breast Cancer.
- Determine the potential impact of ACCESS on cancer related distress, symptom burden, and utilization of supportive care services.
OUTLINE: Participants (N=60) are randomized to 1 of 2 groups:
GROUP 1/Intervention Group: Participants complete 6 individualized behavioral/educational sessions focused on social determinants of health and supportive care with a trained community navigator followed by monthly phone call check ins for 4 months. Participants complete questionnaires over the phone with a research coordinator at baseline, 6 and 9 months.
GROUP 2/Attention Control group: Participants complete 6 phone calls with a research coordinator focused on supportive care resources followed by monthly phone call check ins for 4 months. Participants complete questionnaires over the phone with a research coordinator at baseline, 6 months and 9 months.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of phone calls
时间窗: 9 months
Practicality evaluates if the navigator is able to deliver the intervention in person or virtual. Successful practicality benchmarks include \>80% of follow up phone calls conducted.
Number of participants remaining in study
时间窗: at 9 months
Acceptability evaluates if patients accept the intervention through a \<20% dropout rate at 9 months
Number of times navigator communicates with oncology team
时间窗: 9 months
Integration evaluates if the navigator can communicate with the supportive oncology and medical oncology team at least 80% of the time.
Number of visits conducted according to the ACCESS manual
时间窗: 9 months
Fidelity: This is indicated if \>80% of the visits are conducted according to the ACCESS manual.
Number of participants recruited
时间窗: at 9 months
Acceptability evaluates if patients accept the intervention through the ability to recruit 60 participants in 1.5 years and a \<20% dropout rate at 9 months
Number of visits
时间窗: 6 months
Practicality evaluates if the navigator is able to deliver the intervention in person or virtual. Successful practicality benchmarks include \> 80% of the visits conducted.
Number of times participants connect to resources
时间窗: 9 months
Integration evaluates if at least 80% of patients can connect to community and clinical resources.
Change in The Impact of Event Scale - Revised (IES-R) scores
时间窗: Baseline and 9 months
Cancer-related distress will be measured through the Impact of Event Scale - Revised (IES-R) is a 22-item instrument to assess distress. Each item is scored 0-4, with full scale from 0-22. Higher scores indicate greater severity of symptoms related to distress. Efficacy assessed by mean differences at 9 months as compared to baseline.
Change in The Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale (MSAS)
时间窗: Baseline and 9 months
Symptom Burden will be measured through the Memorial Symptom Assessment (MSAS) is a 32 item instrument. Each item is scored from 0 to 4 with full scale from 0-128. A higher score indicates a greater level of symptom distress.
