Patient-centered Development of the Cancer Support Community's Open to Options ®Chatbot Program
August 10, 2022 updated by: University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center
Patient-centered Development of the Cancer Support Community's Open to Options ®Chatbot Program Cancer Treatment Support in Partnership With the Cancer Support Community
This study is designed to study the feasibility and acceptability of the Open to Options (O2O) Chatbot prototype.
The O2O program is an existing patient support program with content currently delivered via in-person counseling with a trained mental health professional or via an existing web-based program (Let's Talk Treatment Options).The Chatbot is an automated, menu-based agent being developed in this study to extend the reach and accessibility of the O2O program via the Chatbot's "virtual coaching".

Detailed Description
This is a pilot study to assess feasibility and acceptability, and to gather preliminary data on how patients with a diagnosis of cancer appraise being prepared for their upcoming visit with a cancer specialist.
Participants will be randomized to take a survey either before or after their Chatbot interaction.
The surveys collect participants' self-appraisal regarding preparedness for their upcoming appointment with a cancer physician, cancer distress and cancer anxiety.
The study will examine whether patients who take the survey after viewing the Chatbot feel more prepared for their upcoming appointment than those who take the survey before the Chatbot interaction.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Pre-Chatbot survey arm
Participants will take the self-appraisal survey prior to interacting with the O2O program via the online Chatbot.
|
Participants respond to online survey questions either before or after using the Chatbot O2O intervention.
Other Names:
An online, automated, menu-based agent in which all responses are pre-programmed to be consistent with the existing O2O program.
The chat-like responses help guide the participant through a process with the goal of developing a list of questions for their upcoming appointment with a cancer clinician.
The session is meant to be completed in one sitting and estimated to take about 45 minutes to complete (including the pre- or post-intervention survey); however, if a participant stops in the middle, they may go back and complete the Chatbot session (or survey).
Evidence-based program developed by Cancer Support Community that helps patients actively engage in their treatment decision process by preparing them for their upcoming appointments.
|
EXPERIMENTAL: Post-Chatbot survey arm
Participants will take the self-appraisal survey after interacting with the O2O program via the online Chatbot.
(This arm will also answer additional questions regarding participants' satisfaction with the O2O Chatbot.)
|
Participants respond to online survey questions either before or after using the Chatbot O2O intervention.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Feasibility of Integrating Chatbot in Clinic
Time Frame: At the time of scheduling an appointment with cancer physician; one day
|
The feasibility of integrating an Open to Options (O2O) Chatbot into the clinical workflow, assessed by the number of patients who accept the invitation to receive more information about the study, among all those invited.
|
At the time of scheduling an appointment with cancer physician; one day
|
Acceptability - Reach
Time Frame: Baseline (Before appointment with cancer physician); up to approximately 3 weeks after scheduling appointment
|
Assessed by the number of patients who log-in to the O2O Chatbot program and create an account, among all those who accepted the invitation to receive information.
|
Baseline (Before appointment with cancer physician); up to approximately 3 weeks after scheduling appointment
|
Acceptability - Uptake
Time Frame: Baseline (Before appointment with cancer physician); up to approximately 3 weeks after scheduling appointment
|
Assessed by the number of patients who proceed to view the full Chatbot prototype and generate a summary, among all those who created an account.
|
Baseline (Before appointment with cancer physician); up to approximately 3 weeks after scheduling appointment
|
Acceptability - Mean Satisfaction Scores
Time Frame: Baseline (Before appointment with cancer physician); up to approximately 3 weeks after scheduling appointment
|
Post-Intervention Survey Group only: In addition to the survey given to all participants, the post-intervention survey group will answer 6 questions about their perception of the Chatbot prototype.
Each of the 6 questions will be scored on a scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree).
Investigators will calculate the mean value (and Standard Deviation) on a 1-5 scale for each question.
|
Baseline (Before appointment with cancer physician); up to approximately 3 weeks after scheduling appointment
|
Acceptability - Percent of Participants with High Satisfaction Scores
Time Frame: Baseline (Before appointment with cancer physician); up to approximately 3 weeks after scheduling appointment
|
Post-Intervention Survey Group only: In addition to the survey given to all participants, the post-intervention survey group will answer 6 questions about their perception of the Chatbot prototype.
Each of the 6 questions will be scored on a scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree).
For each of the six questions, investigators will calculate the percentage of participants who strongly agree.
