Brief Title  ICMJE Implementation Strategies for Monitoring Adherence in Real Time
Official Title  ICMJE Implementation Strategies for Monitoring Adherence in Real Time
Brief Summary The objective of this project is to identify effective strategies to help patients with lung cancer manage side effects and achieve optimal adherence to oral targeted therapies. To achieve this objective, we will evaluate the effect of a novel, bidirectional conversational agent, compared to usual care, on adherence to oral targeted therapies using a two-arm randomized controlled trial, and explore how multilevel factors impact the acceptability and effectiveness of this strategy by collecting qualitative and quantitative data from clinicians and patients.
Detailed Description Drawing from insights in behavioral economics and implementation science, the goal of our project is to identify effective strategies for improving lung cancer outcomes by helping patients to better manage symptoms and adhere to oral therapies. Given the rapid increase in FDA-approved targeted therapies, the need for such strategies will continue to grow. Our central hypothesis is that conversational agent will improve adherence to oral therapies by targeting patient-level determinants of behavior change. The specific aims are to: 1) Test the effects of a patient-directed intervention (conversational agent) to improve adherence to oral targeted therapies in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.; and 2) Use mixed-methods approaches with clinicians and patients to explore multilevel factors shaping the acceptability, effectiveness, and future implementation of intervention into routine cancer care. Primary trial outcomes (adherence and persistence) will be measured using microelectronic monitoring system (MEMS) caps. Secondary outcomes will be assessed using longitudinal surveys and medical record data.
Study Type  ICMJE Interventional
Study Phase  ICMJE Not Applicable
Study Design  ICMJE Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Intervention Model Description:
Patients with lung cancer receiving oral targeted therapies at recruitment sites will be randomized (1:1) to receive intervention or usual care.
Masking: Double (Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)
Primary Purpose: Supportive Care
Condition  ICMJE
  • Lung Cancer
  • Medication Adherence
  • Symptoms and Signs
Intervention  ICMJE
  • Behavioral: Conversational Agent
    Via text messages, the bidirectional, conversation agent provides specific dosing instructions and motivational reminders to promote oral targeted therapy adherence and symptom management. Patients can report symptoms at any time via text message and are also prompted to report symptoms and medication adherence at periodic intervals. Reported symptoms are monitored and managed algorithmically according severity. High-grade symptoms are triaged to the care team immediately. Patients in the intervention arm will use MEMS caps to enable capture of the primary outcome and asked to complete longitudinal surveys.
  • Behavioral: Usual Care
    Patients in the control arm will receive usual care, which includes receiving information about dosing and self-administration of oral therapy, and anticipatory guidance for patients regarding management of side effects. Patients in the control arm will use MEMS caps to enable capture of the primary outcome and asked to complete longitudinal surveys.
Study Arms  ICMJE
  • Experimental: Intervention Arm
    Participants in the intervention arm will be tracked and able to engage with the intervention (conversational agent) on their mobile telephone for 12 weeks.
    Intervention: Behavioral: Conversational Agent
  • Active Comparator: Control Arm
    Patients in the control arm will receive usual care, which includes clinician-driven education on medication management and self-monitoring of symptoms.
    Intervention: Behavioral: Usual Care
