Decision Aids to Improve Knowledge in Patients With Prostate Cancer

July 13, 2023 updated by: Jon C. Tilburt, Mayo Clinic

Testing Decision Aids to Improve Prostate Cancer Decisions for Minority Men

This randomized phase III trial studies how well decision aids work in improving knowledge in patients with prostate cancer. Decision aids may improve patients' knowledge of their condition and options for treatment, and may also help when talking with their doctor.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients must have prostate biopsy within 4 months prior to registration showing newly diagnosed prostate cancer, stage T1-3N0M0; in addition, patients must have: Gleason score 6-10
  • Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) < 50 ng/mL
  • Patients who have had a history of non-cutaneous malignancy in the previous 5 years are not eligible; exception: patients with history of non-melanoma skin cancer are eligible
  • Scheduled prostate cancer consultation to be the first consultation after diagnosis (i.e. not a second-opinion or a consultation following previous discussions of treatment options)
  • Patients may not be concurrently enrolled to another clinical trial for the treatment of cancer; co-enrollment to biospecimen studies is allowed
  • Patients with impaired decision-making capacity (such as with a diagnosis of dementia or memory loss) are not eligible for this study
  • Patients must be able to read and comprehend English; non-English-speaking patients may participate so long as an interpreter (e.g., family member, clinic staff, etc.) is present for consent, for the decision aid administration, and gathering of baseline and follow-up measures

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Knowledge Assessed by Prostate Cancer Treatment Questionnaire
Time Frame: 12 months
The primary outcome, knowledge, will be assessed by a standardized questionnaire (i.e., Prostate Cancer Treatment Questionnaire) administered once, immediately after the clinical consultation while the patient is still at the study site. The number correct from this 12-item measure will be reduced to a proportion of total number correct. With 1.0 (12 out of 12 item average) being the best possible outcome and 0.0 (0 out of 12 item average) the worst possible outcome
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Decisional Quality as Measured by Decisional Regret Scale
Time Frame: 12 months
The Decisional Regret Scale is a short, 5-item scale measuring "distress or remorse after a (health care) decision." The instrument has been validated in other decision aid studies. Questions are answered on a 5-point agreement scale. A score of 0 means no decisional regret and 5 is the maximum level of regret. The continuous scores were then grouped into two categories, 0 (no regret) and 1+ (at least some regret).
12 months
Quality of Life Assessed by Questionnaire
Time Frame: 12 months
The Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composit (EPIC-26) measures health-related quality of life and returns summary scores for urinary, bowel, sexual, and hormonal domains with high test-retest reliability and internal consistency. Scores will be converted into continuous summary scores using standard algorithms. For the EPIC-26 questionnaire, scores were transformed into 0 to 100 scales, with a score of 0 represented the worst possible health-related quality of life and a score of 100 representing the most favorable health-related quality of life. The questionnaire will be administered once; 12 months after the patient's initial consultation.
12 months
Utilization as Determined by Chart Review
Time Frame: 12 months
Will be categorized by the type of treatment the patient elected to receive. Will be compared across intervention arms.
