Interactive Care Plan for the Monitoring of Symptoms and Recovery in Patients With Stage 0-III Breast Cancer

September 14, 2023 updated by: Mayo Clinic

Assessing the Usability and Workflow Impact of a Mobile-Based Breast Cancer Survivorship Care Plan in the Oncology Practice

This phase I trial evaluates how well a mobile device-based breast cancer survivorship interactive care plan works in monitoring symptoms and recovery in patients with stage 0-III breast cancer. The interactive care plan provides patients with individualized, 'just in time' education materials to promote self-management for those reporting difficult to control symptoms, as well as escalations to contact their care team for signs or symptoms concerning for cancer coming back (recurrence). The interactive care plan may help alleviate the symptoms of fatigue, insomnia, hot flashes, and sexual dysfunction; increase physical activity level and improve quality of life in patients with breast cancer.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the feasibility and usability of the breast cancer (BC) survivorship interactive care plan (ICP) as designed.

II. To determine the behavioral, toxicity symptom burden and quality of life (QOL) changes in patients engaged with the ICP.

III. To assess clinical workflow impact by the introduction of the ICP in the BC survivor practice.

OUTLINE:

Patients complete surveys for 4 common symptoms: fatigue, hot flashes, insomnia, and sexual dysfunction and receive educational material via mobile application (app) to help with bothersome symptoms. Patients also complete questionnaires.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Symptoms assessment response rate
Time Frame: 12 months
Will assess the total response rate of all surveys administered over the course of the study. The interaction with the educational materials and reminders will be similarly assessed as a total proportion of interaction with the materials and reminders.
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in patient behavior (activity)
Time Frame: Baseline up to 12 months
Will be assessed, using McNemar's test to detect any differences.
Baseline up to 12 months
Change in toxicity symptom burden
Time Frame: Baseline up to 12 months
Will be assessed using a paired t-test.
Baseline up to 12 months
Change in quality of life (QOL)
Time Frame: Baseline up to 12 months
The statistical significance of this outcome will be tested using a paired t-test to compare baseline and study end QOL questionnaire completion
Baseline up to 12 months
Clinical workflow impact measured by implementation of the breast cancer survivorship interactive care plan in the practice
Time Frame: 12 months
