A Research Study for Latina Women After Breast Cancer Treatment
An e-Health Intervention to Improve Symptom Burden and Health-Related Quality of Life Among Hispanic Women Completing Active Treatment for Breast Cancer
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of a developed psychosocial eHealth intervention on the proposed primary outcomes, health-related quality of life and symptom burden, among Hispanic breast cancer survivors.
The intervention components include breast cancer knowledge, stress awareness and management, social support, and enhanced communication and intimacy skills. The intervention will be delivered via a Smartphone application over an 8-week period.
Participants are randomized into either an intervention application (described above) or a control application (health information and health promotion strategies). Aside from using the Smartphone application for the recommended 8 weeks, participation in this study includes three assessments: baseline (at the beginning of the research study), 6-week follow-up, and 8-week follow-up.

Experimental: My Guide (psychoeducation & self-management program)
|
"My Guide" is a Smartphone application incorporating elements informed by the extant literature, designed to improve quality of life and symptom burden among Hispanic breast cancer survivors.
"My Guide" components are designed to improve breast cancer knowledge, cancer-relevant self-efficacy, stress and symptom management skills, Both intervention and active comparator conditions are administered to participants for 8 weeks.
|
Comparador activo: My Health (health education program)
|
"My Health" is a health promotion Smartphone application with health education content on nutrition, and general advice on lifestyle choices and prevention.
The "My Health" control content was based on similar content tested in other psychosocial interventions with cancer survivors.
Both intervention and active comparator conditions are administered to participants for 8 weeks.

¿Qué mide el estudio?
Medidas de resultado primarias
Medida de resultado |
Medida Descripción |
Periodo de tiempo |
---|---|---|
Health Related Quality of Life will be evaluated with The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast (FACT-B)
Periodo de tiempo: HRQoL will be first assessed at baseline (T1), initial HRQoL changes will be assessed at 6 weeks post-baseline (T2), and finally any additional HRQoL changes will be captured 8 weeks post-baseline (T3)
|
The FACT-B has been used extensively to measure HRQoL, and has been translated to and validated in Spanish.
The FACT-B assesses participant's wellbeing in physical, emotional, social, functional, and breast cancer related concerns in the last seven days using a five-point response scale.
|
HRQoL will be first assessed at baseline (T1), initial HRQoL changes will be assessed at 6 weeks post-baseline (T2), and finally any additional HRQoL changes will be captured 8 weeks post-baseline (T3)
|
Symptom Burden will be evaluated with The Breast Cancer Prevention Trial symptom questionnaire (BCPT)
Periodo de tiempo: Symptom Burden will be first assessed at baseline (T1), initial changes will be assessed at 6 weeks post-baseline (T2), and finally any additional changes will be captured 8 weeks post-baseline (T3)
|
The BCPT measures participants' symptom burden.
The BCPT asks participants to report their level of discomfort with 25 breast cancer related symptoms during the past four weeks using a five-point response scale.
|
Symptom Burden will be first assessed at baseline (T1), initial changes will be assessed at 6 weeks post-baseline (T2), and finally any additional changes will be captured 8 weeks post-baseline (T3)

Medidas de resultado secundarias
Medida de resultado |
Medida Descripción |
Periodo de tiempo |
---|---|---|
Cancer-Specific Distress will be evaluated using The Impact of Event Scale (IES)
Periodo de tiempo: Cancer-Specific Distress will be first assessed at baseline (T1), initial changes will be assessed at 6 weeks post-baseline (T2), and finally any additional changes will be captured 8 weeks post-baseline (T3)
|
The IES is made up of two subscales measuring the frequency of intrusion and avoidance experiences after a stressful event.
The IES has been widely used among patients diagnosed with cancer and has been translated and validated with Spanish-speaking participants.
|
Cancer-Specific Distress will be first assessed at baseline (T1), initial changes will be assessed at 6 weeks post-baseline (T2), and finally any additional changes will be captured 8 weeks post-baseline (T3)
|
Breast Cancer Related Knowledge will be evaluated with the Knowledge about Breast Cancer Questionnaire
Periodo de tiempo: Breast Cancer Knowledge will be first assessed at baseline (T1), initial changes will be assessed at 6 weeks post-baseline (T2), and finally any additional changes will be captured 8 weeks post-baseline (T3)
|
This questionnaire has been tested with Spanish-speaking Hispanic breast cancer survivors, it is made up of 16 true and false questions regarding general breast cancer knowledge.
|
Breast Cancer Knowledge will be first assessed at baseline (T1), initial changes will be assessed at 6 weeks post-baseline (T2), and finally any additional changes will be captured 8 weeks post-baseline (T3)
|
Breast Cancer Related Communication and Attitudinal Self-Efficacy will be evaluated using the Communication and Attitudinal Self-Efficacy scale for cancer (CASE-cancer)
Periodo de tiempo: Breast Cancer Related Communication and Attitudinal Self-Efficacy will be first assessed at baseline (T1), initial changes will be assessed at 6 weeks post-baseline (T2), and finally any additional changes will be captured 8 weeks post-baseline (T3)
|
The CASE-cancer questionnaire is made up various subscales measuring breast cancer related communication and attitudinal self-efficacy.
Each question asks participants to use a four-point response scale to agree or disagree with statements regarding their level of confidence with different skills.
|
Breast Cancer Related Communication and Attitudinal Self-Efficacy will be first assessed at baseline (T1), initial changes will be assessed at 6 weeks post-baseline (T2), and finally any additional changes will be captured 8 weeks post-baseline (T3)
|
Stress Management Skills will be evaluated with the Brief COPE Inventory
Periodo de tiempo: Stress Management Skills will be first assessed at baseline (T1), initial changes will be assessed at 6 weeks post-baseline (T2), and finally any additional changes will be captured 8 weeks post-baseline (T3)
|
The Brief COPE is made up of various subscales measuring different ways of coping.
Each question as participants to rate how often they have used each coping mechanism in response to their breast cancer experience.
