About this study

Official title: POW-R Health: Power to Redefine Your Health A Pragmatic Dietary Intervention to Improve Bladder Cancer Survivorship

This phase I trial investigates how well a healthy eating program works in improving outcomes in patients with bladder cancer. The behavioral dietary program consists of educational materials, live phone calls, and interactive voice response phone messages. Participating in the healthy eating program may improve eating habits and/or reduce the risk of bladder cancer from coming back.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Develop an evidence-based behavioral intervention to increase cruciferous vegetable intake, with the goal of attaining desirable urinary isothiocyanates (ITC) levels effective for anti-cancer activities.

II. Conduct a feasibility pilot of our dietary behavioral intervention through a hybrid I implementation randomized controlled design in 80 non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) survivors, where the treatment group (n=40) will receive an evidence-based telephone intervention to increase cruciferous vegetable intake and the control group (n=40) will receive a general fruit and vegetable intake intervention based on National Cancer Institute (NCI) guidelines.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To ascertain the level of gene expression changes in urinary exfoliated epithelial cells (due to the intervention) as a surrogate for intermediate efficacy.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:

  1. Engage the clinical care providers of patients enrolled in our intervention to ascertain the barriers and facilitators of intervention implementation within clinical practice through conducting 20 semi-structured interviews.

OUTLINE:

AIM I: Develop an evidence-based behavioral intervention using a systematic process consisting of information gathering, discussion groups, and mock intervention delivery.

AIM II: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM A (HEALTHY EATING PROGRAM A): Patients receive mailed educational materials about the importance of consuming cruciferae, setting healthier eating goals, and the importance of keeping track of what they eat. Patients also receive one phone call from study staff to make sure they understood the educational materials received and 11 interactive voice response (IVR) phone messages over 6 months.

ARM B (HEALTHY EATING PROGRAM B): Patients receive mailed educational materials about general fruit and vegetable intake, setting healthier eating goals, and the importance of keeping track of what they eat. Patients also receive one phone call from study staff to make sure they understood the educational materials received and 11 IVR phone messages over 6 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Urinary Isothiocyanates Levels

    Will be measured using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-based cyclocondensation assay. The outcome is defined as change from baseline in measured levels. Between-group difference of change from baseline was analyzed using Wilcoxon rank-sum tests.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Cruciferae Intake Change

    Will be assessed using a questionnaire adapted from Thomson et al. to capture both intake and cooking styles. The outcome is defined as change from baseline in measured levels. Between-group difference of change from baseline was analyzed using Wilcoxon rank-sum tests.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Gene Expression

    Will be evaluated via ribonucleic acid-sequencing (RNA-seq) as a surrogate for intermediate efficacy, conducted at Roswell Park's Genomics Shared Resource using NextSeq500 platform (Illumina Inc.). Will summarize changes between pre- and post-intervention for both arms and calculate point estimates and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals. Will analyze between-group differences in the change of outcome variables between baseline and post-intervention using ANCOVA.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Change in Cruciferous Vegetable Intake, Cups/Day

    Will be evaluated by three non-consecutive 24-hour dietary recalls (two weekdays, one weekday) conducted by trained staff using the interview-administered Nutrition Data System for Research (NDSR). The outcome is defined as change from baseline in measured levels. Between-group difference of change from baseline was analyzed using Wilcoxon rank-sum tests.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Behavioral Dietary Intervention, Educational Intervention and Questionnaire Administration in people with Stage 0a Bladder Cancer AJCC v8 and Stage 0is Bladder Cancer AJCC v8, run by Roswell Park Cancer Institute 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 12 inclusion and 8 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 28 Aug 2024. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Aug 2024). 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?

Urinary Isothiocyanates Levels (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 28 Aug 2024.
