Health Information Technology System ("Roadmap 2.0") in the Context of Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

A Randomized Trial of Roadmap 2.0

The purpose of this research study is to measure the effects of using a mobile phone app (Roadmap 2.0) on the health-related quality of life of caregivers and patients undergoing allogeneic/autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT).

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Health information technology tools may enable caregivers and patients to become more active participants in their healthcare.This study is not to provide any treatment, but rather to investigate the use of this mobile health technology-mediated intervention (Roadmap 2.0). Roadmap 2.0 is a web-based application that integrates patient-specific information and includes several domains: laboratory results, medications, clinical trial details, photos of the healthcare team, trajectory of transplant process, and discharge checklist.

This trial is anticipated to enroll 664 participants, but only caregivers (332 total) will be evaluated for the primary and secondary outcome measures. Thus, the sample size is 332. The total enrollment includes 166 caregiver-patient dyads of adult patients (age >/=18 years) undergoing HCT ("adult dyads" = 332 total) and 166 caregiver-patient dyads of pediatric patients (age 5-17 years) undergoing HCT ("pediatric dyads" = 332 total).

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

Ages Eligible for Study

1 year to 71 years (Child, Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria

  • The caregiver must have an eligible patient (see below)
  • The caregiver must be of age ≥18 years.
  • The caregiver should be comfortable in reading and speaking English and signing informed consents.
  • The caregiver should provide at least 50% of care needs.
  • An eligible patient is one who identifies the eligible caregiver as their primary caregiver (i.e., provides at least 50% of care needs).
  • An eligible patient is age ≥5 years.
  • An eligible patient is scheduled to undergo HCT.
  • An eligible patient is able to sign informed consent/assent forms.
  • Patients and caregivers agree to provide informed consent that is in regulatory compliance and IRBMED-approved and also in accordance to institutional guidelines. A patient is able to undergo HCT at the U-M only if a designated family caregiver (e.g., parents, adult children, spouses, family members, neighbors, friends) accepts the roles, in accordance to the Clinical Practice Guidelines of the U-M BMT Program.
  • The caregiver and patient must have his/her own smartphone to participate.

Exclusion Criteria

- Patient does not meet eligibility criteria to undergo HCT at the U-M BMT Program or Oregon Health & Sciences University.

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Supportive Care
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Roadmap 2.0

Roadmap 2.0 mobile app + wearable sensor to track activity and sleep + usual care (informational or educational resources provided through verbal communication or written hand-out materials).

Includes caregivers of adult patients and caregivers of pediatric patients

Caregivers and patients in both arms of the study will have a Fitbit wearable activity sensor to track activity and sleep.
Other Names:
  • Fitbit Charge 3
Caregivers and patients download the Roadmap 2.0 app on their mobile phones or tablets
Caregivers and patients will be asked to respond to survey questions at 3 timepoints.
Other Names:
  • PROMIS®
Experimental: Roadmap 2.0 with Positive Activities

Roadmap 2.0 mobile app (patients), Roadmap 2.0 with mobile Positive Activities app (caregivers) + wearable sensor to track activity and sleep + usual care (informational or educational resources provided through verbal communication or written hand-out materials).

Includes caregivers of adult patients and caregivers of pediatric patients

Caregivers and patients in both arms of the study will have a Fitbit wearable activity sensor to track activity and sleep.
Other Names:
  • Fitbit Charge 3
Caregivers and patients will be asked to respond to survey questions at 3 timepoints.
Other Names:
  • PROMIS®
Caregivers and patients download the Roadmap 2.0 app on their mobile phones. Caregivers and patients will be instructed on how to operate Roadmap 1.0 on an iPad (inpatient only) and Roadmap 2.0 on a mobile phone (inpatient and outpatient). Caregivers download the Positive Activities app onto their mobile phone to use freely throughout inpatient and outpatient (through day 120 post-transplant). Caregiver may also use an electronic tablet provided by the study team during the patient's hospital stay.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Caregiver Health-related Quality of Life (HRQOL) Assessed by the PROMIS Global Health Scale.
Time Frame: At day 120 post-transplant
Mean Global Health scores for each arm at day 120. PROMIS® instruments are scored using item-level calibrations. This method of scoring uses "response pattern scoring," which uses responses to each item for each participant. Scores generally range from 20 to 80, with higher scores indicating better health.
At day 120 post-transplant

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Caregiver Health-related Quality of Life (HRQOL) Assessed by PROMIS Profile 29+2 (Exploratory)
Time Frame: At day 120 post-transplant
Mean Profile 29+2 scores for each arm at day 120. PROMIS® instruments are scored using item-level calibrations. This method of scoring uses "response pattern scoring," which uses responses to each item for each participant. This is an exploratory measure.
At day 120 post-transplant
