Mindfulness-Based Exercise Video in Educating Hispanic/Latino Patients With Colorectal Cancer and Their Caregivers
A Mindfulness-Based Educational Intervention For Colorectal Cancer Patients And Caregivers
Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the effect of a brief educational program on colorectal cancer knowledge acquisition in a 3-arm randomized clinical trial (Control Group: standard of care; Treatment Group 1: cancer education; Treatment Group 2: mindfulness + cancer education) comparing visual/written educational material with and without mindfulness training to the standard of care.
II. To determine the priming effect of a brief mindfulness training on retaining knowledge of colorectal cancer education.
III. To determine the joint effect of colorectal cancer education delivered to both the patient and a caregiver on the overall colorectal cancer knowledge.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To examine the relative changes in psychobiological variables (stress, anxiety, depression, mindfulness, fatigue, life benefit) from pre (T0) to post (T1) intervention in the 3 arms of the clinical trials.
II. To measure changes in salivary cortisol levels as an indicator of acute stress reactivity across 4 time points across a one-hour period (i.e., 0 min, 20 min, 40 min, 60 min) during active chemotherapy (T1).
III. To determine the moderating effect of baseline peripheral levels of inflammation (interleukin-1 [IL-1], IL-6, c-reactive protein [CRP] and tumor necrosis factor alpha [TNFa]) on the trajectory of salivary cortisol reactivity.
OUTLINE: Patients and caregivers are randomized to 1 of 3 groups.
GROUP I: Patients and caregivers receive standard of care.
GROUP II: Patients and caregivers receive a 20-minute self-playing interactive educational video brochure.
GROUP III: Patients and caregivers receive a 20-minute self-playing interactive educational video brochure and watch a 20-minute interactive mindfulness exercise video.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
|
Change in self-reported stress levels assessed using pre- and post-test assessments
Time Frame: Baseline to up to 60 minutes
|
The intervention effects will be examined using multi-level modeling (MLM).
These analyses will include chi-square, t-tests, and one way analyses of variance (ANOVAs).
|
Baseline to up to 60 minutes
|
|
Change in colorectal cancer knowledge assessed using pre- and post-test assessments
Time Frame: Baseline to up to 60 minutes
|
The intervention effects will be examined using multi-level modeling (MLM).
These analyses will include chi-square, t-tests, and one way ANOVAs.
|
Baseline to up to 60 minutes
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
|
Changes in salivary cortisol levels using chemiluminescence immunoassay
Time Frame: Baseline to up 60 minutes
|
Cortisol slopes will be calculated with two distinct areas under the curve analyses using the trapezoid formula as outlined by Pruessner 2003.
Data values will be entered into a two factor (group by time) multilevel MIXED linear regression model to calculate differences between the three groups.
A Scheffe post hoc test will be employed to determine the direction of the differences between the groups.

Baseline to up 60 minutes
