Addressing Cancer Care Equity With Social Determinants of Health Screening and Early Intervention (ACCESS)

24. juli 2026 opdateret af: Michelle Lee, Massachusetts General Hospital

ACCESS-Leukemia: Addressing Cancer Care Equity With Social Determinants of Health Screening and Early Intervention

The purpose of this study is to explore if screening health-related social needs and early social work consultation is feasible and acceptable for adults with leukemias. The study examines whether the intervention (ACCESS-Leukemia) improves outcomes. Researchers will compare social determinants of health screening and early involvement of social work to usual care.

Detaljeret beskrivelse

Social determinants of health (SDOH) are non-medical social, environmental, and economic factors that impact health outcomes. Health-related social needs (HRSNs) then refer to the individual-level experiences arising from adverse SDOH that negatively affect an individual's well-being. Notably, an estimated 80% of health outcomes are attributable to SDOH rather than direct medical care.

Despite major advances in cancer diagnostics and treatment, outcome gaps remain. Factors as unemployment, financial hardship, housing instability, and limited social support are known to affect cancer-specific morbidity and mortality. Yet, patients are not routinely screened to identify potentially actionable barriers to care.

Prior work has shown that structured SDOH screening can be done successfully in outpatient cancer clinics, but this has not been studied in leukemia patients. Screening may be especially important in this group, as HRSNs have been linked to reduced access to care, differences in treatment response, and worse survival.

This study involves a multi-component intervention (ACCESS-Leukemia) that includes systematic screening for HRSNs and early introduction of oncology social workers. The investigators are studying the feasibility of delivering this program, the acceptability with the program, and changes in financial burden, rate of unmet HRSNs, psychosocial support, and quality of life among patients who receive the intervention. The investigators will also examine the prevalence of HRSNs and their association with healthcare utilization. The study will use a series of questionnaires that can be completed by participants in clinic, in the hospital, or at home.

Beskrivelse

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Adult patients ≥18 years who are newly referred to the outpatient Adult Leukemia Treatment Program with the following diagnoses:

  1. Acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
  2. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)
  3. Intermediate or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), as defined by the revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) and/or IPSS-molecular (IPSS-M)
  4. Intermediate or high-risk chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) by the CMML-specific prognostic scoring system (CPSS-Mol)
  5. Patients with lower risk MDS or CMML may also be included if baseline peripheral blood labs indicate anticipated transfusion dependence, defined as needing ≥2 units of red blood cells every 28 days
  6. Patients with lower risk MDS or CMML may also be included if anticipated visits with the leukemia clinic exceed once per month by primary oncologist

2. Ability to complete surveys in English, Spanish, or with assistance of an interpreter.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Adults unable to consent due to lack of capacity based on their leukemia clinician assessment.
  2. Individuals who are not yet adults (infants, children, teenagers).

Eksperimentel: ACCESS-Leukemia
HRSNs screening survey followed by oncology social work consultation
Adfærdsmæssigt: ACCESS-Leukemia
Pilot intervention includes a screening survey of health-related social needs followed by a social work consultation within 2 weeks of study enrollment, regardless of their answers on the screening survey. Patients will complete baseline assessments, and the HRSNs screen must be completed before the third leukemia clinic visit.

Tidsramme: up to week 24
Participants will be asked a 3-item survey; first question will ask whether participants are worried about delay in medical care or miss appointments due to 13 pre-specified domains of HRSNs; second question will ask if participants had the opportunity to share their concerns with the healthcare team; and third question asks participants if they'd like more information regarding any of the 13 pre-specified HRSN domains. The investigators will compare answers between the two groups.
