简要总结
The purpose of this two-arm pilot RCT is to evaluate processes and preliminary outcomes of a targeted QOL intervention vs. an attention control among young AA survivors post-treatment for early (I-II) & late (III) stage breast cancer.
详细描述
Primary Objectives
I. Evaluate feasibility and acceptability of Y-AMBIENT and an attention control among young African American breast cancer survivors.
II. Explore the degree to which the Y-AMBIENT vs. attention control affects preliminary health-related outcomes among young African American (AA) survivors.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I (Y-AMBIENT): Patients receive three themed education sessions over 1 hour each, written materials, and videos at month 1. Patients also participate in 3, 20 minutes telephone reinforcement calls to discuss how they are doing and discuss any concerns that they are still managing at months 2, 3, and 4.

研究组 & 干预措施
Y-AMBIENT
Y-AMBIENT is a four-month, telephone-based intervention that includes three themed education sessions with three follow-up sessions, written materials, and videos. All themed education and follow-up sessions are conducted according to the respective Y-AMBIENT session outlines and audio-recorded. Session 1, titled "My Self, My Soul," covers topics related to spiritual growth and finding meaning in illness. Session 2, titled "My Body," covers topics related to breast changes, aches/pains, fatigue, and weight changes. Session 3, titled "My Mind and My Relationships," covers topics related to anxiety, fear, and relationships with others. The sessions will take approximately one hour, with follow-ups lasting about 20 minutes. Participants will receive both printed and electronic PDF versions of written materials, in addition to video links, to reinforce content delivered during Sessions.

干预措施: Questionnaire Administration (Other)
Attention Control
The control condition will consist of receiving a culturally-targeted cookbook applied by an adapted "Food for Thought" cookbook, a guide to grocery shopping smart, and telephone socialization calls. We opted to use the cookbook and guide as conversation pieces given cultural practices associated with food and avert financial constraints with shopping tips. During three, one-hour socialization calls, we will use scripted questions to encourage discussion about the participant, cookbook and guide, and obtain information about survivorship concerns without providing coaching. The follow-up calls will last about 20 minutes.

结局指标
主要结局
Proportion of screen-eligible patients enrolled by consent
时间窗: Up to 2 years
Descriptive statistics will be used to compute the proportion of screen-eligible patients enrolled by consent. Proportions will be computed, along with 95% confidence intervals, to indicate the precision of the point estimate.
Proportion of patients that complete all (five) study contacts of intervention
时间窗: Up to 2 years
Descriptive statistics will be used to compute proportion of patients that complete all (five) study contacts of the intervention. Proportions will be computed, along with 95% confidence intervals, to indicate the precision of the point estimate.
Acceptability/Relevance of Intervention Sessions
时间窗: Up to 2 years
Will use qualitative interview to assess participants' perceptions of its acceptability/relevance of each of the six study contacts, using a Likert scale 0 to 10 with 0 being not at all satisfied/useful and 10 being completely satisfied/useful and an open ended question to understand why each score was provided. A composite score will be determined, where higher scores equate to higher acceptability/relevance. Descriptive statistics will be computed, along with 95% confidence intervals, to indicate the precision of the point estimate. Qualitative responses will be analyzed for content.
Participation in aspects of protocol
时间窗: Up to 2 years
Will use qualitative interview to assess participants' engagement by review of task completion to participate in aspects of the protocol (as an indicator of participant burden). There are a total of six sessions to complete and seven videos to review. Descriptive statistics will be used to compute the proportion of participant self-reported effectiveness of each intervention via the logs. Completion of tasks indicates greater willingness to participate.
PROMIS Global Health10
时间窗: Baseline up to 1 month post-intervention
The PROMIS Global Health 10 is a well-established measure of health status in cancer survivors. It assesses health and functioning including overall physical health, mental health, social health, pain, fatigue, and overall perceived quality of life. Higher scores indicate better functioning. Will use mixed-effects linear modeling for repeated measures to (a) test the fixed effect of time, intervention group, and their interaction; (b) derive within-group and between-group contrast estimates on the change from baseline at each follow-up.
Use of proposed self-management strategies and perceived effectiveness
时间窗: Up to 2 years
Will use qualitative interview to assess participants' engagement by review of use of proposed self-management strategies and their perceived effect on quality of life concerns using a Likert scale 0 to 10 with 0 being not at all effective and 10 being most effective. Descriptive statistics will be used to compute the proportion of participant self-reported effectiveness of each intervention via the logs. Qualitative responses will be analyzed for content.
Medical Outcomes Survey Short-Form (SF-36)
时间窗: Baseline up to 1 month post-intervention
The SF-36 is a well-established measure of health status in cancer survivors. SF-36 includes one multi-item scale assessing eight health concepts: limitations in physical activity, social activity, role activity, bodily pain, psychological distress, limitations in social activity due to emotional distress, vitality, and general health perceptions. The scale ranges from 0-100. Higher scores indicate better functioning. Will use mixed-effects linear modeling for repeated measures to (a) test the fixed effect of time, intervention group, and their interaction; (b) derive within-group and between-group contrast estimates on the change from baseline at each follow-up.
(Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy Spiritual Well-Being (FACT-Sp 12)
时间窗: Baseline up to 1 month post-intervention
The FACIT-SP-12 is the most widely used measure of spiritual well-being among those with cancer. Its subscales measure faith, meaning, and peace. Higher scores reflect higher well-being. Will use mixed-effects linear modeling for repeated measures to (a) test the fixed effect of time, intervention group, and their interaction; (b) derive within-group and between-group contrast estimates on the change from baseline at each follow-up.
MOS Modified Social Support Survey
时间窗: Baseline up to 1 month post-intervention
MOS assesses dimensions of social support with four functional support scales: emotional/informational, tangible, affectionate, and positive social interaction. The scale ranges from 0-100. Higher scores indicate greater social support. Will use mixed-effects linear modeling for repeated measures to (a) test the fixed effect of time, intervention group, and their interaction; (b) derive within-group and between-group contrast estimates on the change from baseline at each follow-up.
PROMIS Applied Cognition - General Concerns short form (8- item)
时间窗: Baseline up to 1 month post-intervention
This instrument measures working memory, speed of processing, and executive control of cognitive functioning. Higher scores reflect higher perceived cognitive functionality. Will use mixed-effects linear modeling for repeated measures to (a) test the fixed effect of time, intervention group, and their interaction; (b) derive within-group and between-group contrast estimates on the change from baseline at each follow-up.
