About this study

Official title: Impact of the OncoDoc2 Decision Support System on Compliance of Multidisciplinary Staff Meeting Decisions With Clinical Practice Guidelines in the Management of Non-metastatic Breast Cancer.

The objective of the study is to evaluate how the use of OncoDoc2, a computerized guideline-based decision support system, could improve the compliance of multidisciplinary staff meeting decisions with local clinical practice guidelines in the management of non-metastatic breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

In France, to promote the quality of cancer care, decisions have currently to be made according to clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) during regularly organized multidisciplinary staff meetings (MSMs). Dissemination of textual CPGs has a poor impact on clinical practice as opposed to the use of clinical decision support systems (CDSSs) known to improve compliance with CPGs. OncoDoc2 is a CDSS providing patient-specific recommendations based on CPGs for non-metastatic female breast cancer management elaborated by the CancerEst INTERMEDICAL collaboration.The main goal of the study is to evaluate the effect of the routine use of OncoDoc2 during MSMs on compliance of MSM decisions with local CPGs. Impact will be measured by the compliance rate of MSM decisions with OncoDoc2 recommendations. The design of the study relies on a cluster randomized controlled trial. Under the assumption of a baseline compliance rate of 70% without intervention, an expected compliance rate of 90% in the intervention group (α = 5%, β = 20%), an inter-cluster variability of 5%, and 59 decisions per center, the required number of centers is 3 in each group, or 177 decisions in each arm. The study will be conducted in cancer care centers (public and private) from Paris area, France.This prospective trial will be conducted in two steps. First, baseline compliance rates will be measured in each center. Then, the 6 centers will be randomized into 2 arms. In the intervention arm, OncoDoc2 will be used during MSMs at decision time. Every case of non-adherence with system recommendations will have to be justified by clinicians. In both arms and after each MSM, MSM decisions will be recorded as well as patient characteristics and OncoDoc2 will be used for each patient case to get system recommendations. In the intervention arm, OncoDoc2 recommendations obtained by MSM will also be recorded, as well as the reason for non following recommendations in case MSM decision does not comply with guidelines.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Compliance of multidisciplinary staff meeting (MSM) decisions with OncoDoc2 guideline-based recommendations at one year : MSM decisions are recorded on a weekly basis.

    Measured: Every week

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Compliance of actually administered treatments with OncoDoc2 recommendations at 18 months (treatments administration may last until 8 months after the therapeutic decision has been taken by MSMs)

    Measured: at 18 months

  2. typology of non-compliant reasons for both MSM decisions and treatments administration

    Measured: at 18 months

  3. patient profiles associated with non-guideline-compliant therapeutic decisions.

    Measured: at 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ONCODOC LOGICIEL in people with Breast Cancer, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Sep 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Compliance of multidisciplinary staff meeting (MSM) decisions with OncoDoc2 guideline-based recommendations at one year : MSM decisions are recorded on a weekly basis. (time frame: Every week). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Sep 2013.
