Description détaillée
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Test the feasibility of the study protocol in advanced cancer patients and co-parents (recruitment/retention, dosage and fidelity of the intervention; program acceptability of program; and logistics).
II. Evaluate the short-term impact of the program on the diagnosed parents', co-parents' and children's adjustment and family functioning using a within group design (pre- and posttest design).
III. Compare outcomes from the Enhancing Connections Palliative Program with similar outcomes obtained from the completed phase III trial (between group design) for the patients and children outcomes.
IV. Evaluate the longer term impact of the program on the co-parents' and children's adjustment, including bereavement outcomes when appropriate, using a within and across group design (pre- and posttest design).
OUTLINE:
Patients and co-parents participate in the Enhancing Connections program consisting of 5 sessions over 1 hour each in the clinic or over the telephone. Session topics include managing cancer-related emotions when talking to children, developing deep listening skills, initiating difficult cancer-related conversations with children, interpreting a child's behavior, recognizing newly acquired gains from the program, and identifying available resources that can be used after program completion.
After completion of the study, participants are followed-up at 6 months.

Feasibility of the Enhancing Connections program in advanced cancer patients and co-parents
Délai: Up to 2 years
|
Recruitment and retention of all triads will be monitored.
Dosage and fidelity will be monitored for each intervention session.
Program acceptability (per session, overall, duration of program, interval between intervention sessions) will be assessed from a debriefing interview.
For logistics four areas will be monitored: rate of receipt of mailed materials both to participants and from participants; duration and type (whether telephone or in-person) of intervention sessions; rate of success in scheduling and completing intervention sessions with patient and co-parent; and quality of data on baseline, post-intervention and follow-up measures.

Up to 2 years
|
Change in adjustment and family functioning
Délai: Baseline to 6 months
|
Descriptive statistics (e.g.
means, medians) will be used to describe the Enhancing Connections palliative care population.
Parents', co-parents and children's baseline scores [parent-reported] on standardized questionnaires will be compared with post-intervention and 6 month follow-up scores on the same measures.

Baseline to 6 months
|
Outcomes from the Enhancing Connections Palliative Program as measured by the Child Behavior Check List
Délai: Up to 2 years
|
Linear mixed modeling based on Maximum Likelihood Estimation will be used to test the differences between the Child Behavior Check List results for the Enhancing Connections Palliative Program and the completed phase III trial (EC-R01).
|
Up to 2 years
|
Change in adjustment as measured by post-traumatic growth scores
Délai: Baseline to 6 months
