About this study

Official title: Advancing Stated-preference Methods for Measuring the Preferences of Patients With Type II Diabetes

In 2012, the FDA Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) issued guidance to clarify the principal benefit-risk factors FDA considers during the reviews for premarket approval applications and de novo classification requests. In addition to a detailed description of benefits and risks, CDRH listed "patient tolerance for risk and perspective on benefit" as a factor that CDRH may consider in regulatory reviews. It underlined the need for developing methods to measure patient preference and incorporate it into regulatory decision-making. The purpose of this study is to advance methods for patient and community engagement in patient-centered outcome research (PCOR) and has three objectives.

First, demonstrate good practices for patient and community involvement in PCOR projects by applying principles of community-based participatory research (CBPR).

Second, address methodological gaps pertaining to the use of stated-preference methods in studying priorities in PCOR. These include identifying the best methods for identifying patient priorities and strategies for analyzing variation in priorities. The investigators also seek to assess the relevance of stated-preference methods to patients and stakeholders using both qualitative and quantitative methods.

Third, demonstrate good practices for applying stated-preference methods by studying the priorities of patients with type II diabetes. While type II diabetes provides an important case study, this research will advance approaches and methods that will be broadly generalizable to other diseases, and to diverse patient and stakeholder groups.

Clinical Significance:

This project will illustrate and advance methods for assessing the values of patients and stakeholders. It will demonstrate how CBPR methods apply to PCOR studies and the value of stated-preference methods in measuring the priorities of patients and stakeholders and directing health care.

Read the detailed description

This study will apply the principles of CBPR to involve patients and stakeholders associated with a local community board and a national diabetes advisory board in key decisions in the project. During year 1, the investigators will utilize mixed methods to develop, pretest, and pilot the survey instruments to assess the priorities of patients with type II diabetes. In year 2, the investigators plan further engagement to finalize the survey instruments, and will implement a nationally representative, racially/ethnically diverse sample of patients with type II diabetes. Based on further consultation, the investigators will conduct statistical analysis, including stratified analyses and segmentation of patients with similar priorities. In year 3, mixed methods will be applied to assess beliefs of patients and other consumers about the relevance of this work and its generalizability to other PCOR topics. Finally, lay language reports will be developed to highlight patient and stakeholder engagement and the application of stated-preference methods to the study of the priorities of patients with type II diabetes.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Likert ScaleOther

    Respondents receive questions asking them to rate each barrier or facilitator for diabetes self-management.

  • Best-Worst Scaling (Case 1)Other

    Respondents receive questions asking them to choose the best and worst factors that affect their diabetes self-management among a list of barriers and facilitators.

What is being measured

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

  1. Priority Scores for Potential Barriers and Facilitators for Diabetes Self-management

    Average Likert score or best-worst score that measures the impact of each factor on diabetes self-management. Positive scores indicate facilitators for diabetes self-management while negative scores indicate barriers. The magnitude of the score suggests the degree of the impact. Both scales are on a +1--1 scale. Positive 1 would be the largest possible facilitator and a negative 1 would be the largest possible barrier.

    Measured: One-time survey

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Self-reported Difficulty in Understanding and Answering the Survey Questions

    Questions that asked respondents to evaluate whether it was easy to understand and answer the Likert scale or BWS tasks.

    Measured: One-time survey

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type II Diabetes, run by Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health at 1 site in United States.

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 2 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 24 Jan 2025. 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 United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Jan 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Priority Scores for Potential Barriers and Facilitators for Diabetes Self-management (time frame: One-time survey). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02637609, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 24 Jan 2025.
