NCT02489422 · STUDY IN CONTEXT

Programs To Support You During Chemotherapy

Draft scope assessment: narrower. Linked by condition-string match at the cancer-entity level. The study's eligibility - stage, biomarker, treatment line and prior therapy - has not been reconciled against this page's definition, so its population is narrower than this page in ways not yet recorded. The condition was transformed or resolved through the terminology hierarchy to reach this cancer type, so the link itself is a candidate a reviewer must confirm. Found by searching ClinicalTrials.gov for this cancer type, restricted to studies that have posted results to the registry. No FDA notice, FDA label or NCI summary held by this site cites this study. Because the search asked for posted results, studies without posted results were never looked for, so their absence from this page means nothing.

Linked outcomes

Measures are not ranked. Open each original source section for treatment groups, denominators, units and results.

primary · POSTED

Fatigue will be assessed with the 7-item measure of Fatigue from the PROMIS-cancer specifically designed for use in cancer patients. These tests will be evaluated using mixed-effects (or multilevel) generalized linear modeling procedures. Score range 1 - never, 2 - rarely, 3 - sometimes, 4 - often and 5 - always. Total scores can range from 24 to 86, with higher scores indicating greater fatigue.

Source null

→

secondary · POSTED

Circadian disruption will be assessed with actigraphy. Circadian disruption is defined as a ratio of nighttime activity to daytime activity with higher scores indicating greater circadian disruptions. Summaries of the proportion and frequency of missing daily assessments will inform the feasibility of collecting this type of data.

Participants analyzed represents the number of participants that completed the analysis and had data for this outcome measure out of the total number of participants for the trial.

secondary · POSTED

Circadian disruption will be assessed with actigraphy. Circadian disruption is defined as a ratio of nighttime activity to daytime activity with higher scores indicating greater circadian disruptions. Summaries of the proportion and frequency of missing daily assessments will inform the feasibility of collecting this type of data.

The number of participants is the actual number that completed this portion of the outcome measure during this timeframe that had measurable data.

→

secondary · POSTED

Circadian disruption will be assessed with measures of activity and rest. Activity will be measured using the 3-item Godin's leisure score index (LSI), previously used with colorectal cancer patients during chemotherapy. Rest will be assessed with the 8-item PROMIS sleep disturbance short-form. Each item on the measure is rated on a 5-point scale (1=never; 2=rarely; 3=sometimes; 4=often; and 5=always) with a range in score from 8 to 40 with higher scores indicating greater severity of sleep disturbance.

Numbers may vary based on number of participants that actually completed intervention materials

→

secondary · POSTED

Will be assessed with the standardized 10-item PROMIS-cancer depressive symptoms short-form. These tests will be evaluated using mixed-effects (or multilevel) generalized linear modeling procedures. Scoring scale range from 1 - never, 2 - rarely, 3 - sometimes, 4 - often and 5 - always. The higher the score the more depressive the symptoms. Scores on the short form range from 10 to 81.3; 10-55 is "normal", 55.1-59.9 "mild", 60-64.25 "moderate", and over 64.26 "severe" depression.

Source null

secondary · POSTED

Fatigue will be assessed with 3 items selected from the PROMIS measure of fatigue validated for use in daily diaries. Scoring scale range from 1 - never, 2 - rarely, 3 - sometimes, 4 - often and 5 - always. The higher the score the more fatigued the participants. Scores on the short form range from 0 to 81.3; 0-55 is "normal", 55.1-59.9 "mild", 60-64.25 "moderate", and over 64.26 "severe" fatigue.

Regulation of Psychological Stress Assessed Using the Cancer Behavior Inventory
measure definition
Regulation of psychological stress will be determined by ratings on four of the seven factors of the Cancer Behavior Inventory, which assess self-efficacy for stress management, coping with treatment-related side-effects, accepting cancer/maintaining positive attitude, and affective regulation. Scale ranged from 1-9 (1 - 3 not at all confident; 4-6 moderately confident and 7-9 totally confident). 4 of the 7 items from the Cancer Behavior Inventory (V2.0) were used with each item's score ranges from 0-50 with higher scores indicating more confidence in the item.

    Circadian Disruption (Recalled)
    endpoint definition
    Circadian disruption will be assessed with measures of activity and rest. Activity will be measured using the 3-item Godin's leisure score index (LSI), previously used with colorectal cancer patients during chemotherapy. Rest will be assessed with the 8-item PROMIS sleep disturbance short-form. Each item on the measure is rated on a 5-point scale (1=never; 2=rarely; 3=sometimes; 4=often; and 5=always) with a range in score from 8 to 40 with higher scores indicating greater severity of sleep disturbance.

    Depressive Symptoms Assessed by PROMIS
    endpoint definition
    Will be assessed with the standardized 10-item PROMIS-cancer depressive symptoms short-form. These tests will be evaluated using mixed-effects (or multilevel) generalized linear modeling procedures. Scoring scale range from 1 - never, 2 - rarely, 3 - sometimes, 4 - often and 5 - always. The higher the score the more depressive the symptoms. Scores on the short form range from 10 to 81.3; 10-55 is "normal", 55.1-59.9 "mild", 60-64.25 "moderate", and over 64.26 "severe" depression.

Scores on the short form range from 0 to 81.3; 0-55 is "normal", 55.1-59.9 "mild", 60-64.25 "moderate", and over 64.26 "severe" fatigue.
