Educational Intervention to Increase the Emotional Competence of Patients With Oesogastric and Bronchopulmonary Cancers (EmoVie_K)

September 8, 2020 updated by: University Hospital, Lille

Effectiveness of an Educational Intervention Aimed at Increasing the Emotional Competence of Patients With Oesogastric and Bronchopulmonary Cancers as Compared to Standard Management

The aim of this study is to test whether a short educational intervention about emotional skills can improve survivor cancer patient emotional skills and quality of life. Half of participants will follow the educational intervention about emotional skills, while the other half will practice relaxation followed by a non-directive talking group. The educational intervention should give better results on patient emotional skills and quality of life than the control group.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

After the end of treatments, cancer patients face a difficult time because it is expected that they return to normal, but at the same time they still have to struggle with the aftermath of cancer and fear of recurrence. This is why there is room in this period for an intervention designed to help patients to cope with their emotions. . Patient emotional skills are patient abilities to identify, express and manage their emotions for the best possible psychological adjustment. In general population, emotional skills have been shown to be highly related to a better quality of life. In this randomized controlled study, bronchopulmonary and oesogastric cancer patients between 6 months and 2 years after the end of treatments will undergo either the emotional skills intervention (intervention group) or the relaxation group (control group).

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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.

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
Change in patient emotional skills from baseline to 15 days after intervention
Time Frame: Baseline and 15 days after the end of the intervention
Variation of patient-reported Short Profile of Emotional Competence (S-PEC)questionnaire score from baseline to 15 days after the intervention (between 1 and 3 months)
Baseline and 15 days after the end of the intervention

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.
