A Pilot Study of Structured Palliative Care for Patients Enrolled on Phase I Clinical Trials

22 april 2019 bijgewerkt door: Case Comprehensive Cancer Center
The goal of this research study is to find out if providing patients who are enrolled in phase 1 clinical trials with structured supportive care will enable them to continue in the Phase 1 trial longer and improve their quality of life by reducing or treating side effects and by providing emotional and social support to the patient and family. The structured supportive or palliative care intervention will be provided by a team of trained specialists which include doctors, nurses, social workers and spiritual care providers. The supportive care team will provide treatment to address symptoms, such as pain or anxiety, caused by the cancer itself or from the treatment. The team can make referrals to other specialists. Such as psychologists or nutritionist, if needed, and can help arrange for services to address home care needs.

Studie Overzicht

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

Primary Objective(s): To assess symptoms, adverse events, duration on study, reason for study discontinuation, and quality of life among patients participating in phase I clinical trials who receive structured palliative care, and those who receive standard supportive care. Duration on study will serve as the primary objective for sample size determination.

Secondary Objective(s):

1. To describe the quantity (e.g. hours), type, and cost of palliative care personnel services used by patients and caregivers receiving structured palliative care.

Exploratory:

  1. To compare adverse event profiles, duration on study, and quality of life between patients who receive structured palliative care and those receiving standard supportive care.
  2. To compare caregiver burden and quality of life between the study arms.

Duration on Study
Tijdsspanne: Up to 6 months
Measure of central tendency of the duration patients were on the phase I study. Duration on study will serve as the primary objective for sample size determination
Up to 6 months
Adverse events
Tijdsspanne: Up to 6 months
Measure of central tendency of adverse events. AE will be described and further categorized as modifiable (primary symptom experience) and non-modifiable (laboratory abnormalities). The influence of adverse events on study outcomes particularly duration on study and reason for study discontinuation will be assessed. An exploratory weighted adverse event score will be calculated using the equation: adverse event score = ∑ (NAE * GAE) where N denotes the adverse event number, G denotes grade, AE denotes adverse event. These scores will be compared between study arms
