Decision Making Tool in Supporting Decision Making in Contralateral Prophylactic Mastectomy in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Breast Cancer

September 12, 2023 updated by: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

Decision Making Tool for Contralateral Prophylactic Mastectomy

This trial studies the acceptability and how well decision making tool works in supporting decision making in contralateral prophylactic mastectomy in patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer. Decision making tool may help patients with early stage breast cancer make decisions regarding their surgical options.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. An online decision support tool will be field tested that provides patients facing a decision about contralateral prophylactic breast cancer (CPM) with evidence-based information about the expected incidence of contralateral breast cancer and the life expectancy benefit of CPM. The tool will be designed for use in clinical settings and viewed jointly by the patient and physician as part of a shared decision making process around CPM.

OUTLINE:

Patients use decision making tool during consultation with breast cancer surgeon and complete questionnaires before and after consultation.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Acceptability of the decision support tool
Time Frame: Up to 2 years
Patients' rating of the acceptability of the decision support tool will be assessed using questions from the Ottawa Acceptability Measures, including the clarity, amount, and balance of the information provided by the tool. Acceptability data from patients enrolled in the field test will be reported descriptively.
Up to 2 years
Changes in patient's knowledge of contralateral prophylactic mastectomy (CPM)
Time Frame: Baseline up to 2 years
Will test for change in knowledge from before to after administration of the decision support tool with a breast cancer surgeon using paired samples t-tests.
Baseline up to 2 years
Reductions in decisional conflict about CPM
Time Frame: Baseline up to 2 years
Will be assessed using the Decisional Conflict Scale. Will test for reduction in decisional conflict from before to after administration of the decision support tool with a breast cancer surgeon using paired samples t-tests.
Baseline up to 2 years
