About this study

Official title: Implementation of a Model Integrating Primary and Oncology Care for Patients Taking Oral Anticancer Agents (OAA)

The objective of this study is to improve medication, symptom, and disease management of patients with hematological malignancies and multiple chronic conditions (2 or more conditions in addition to cancer) through care coordination between pharmacists working in oncology practices and those working in primary care practices (Pharmacists Coordinated care Oncology Model [PCOM]).

This is a pilot study in which the investigators will examine the association between outcome measures, but the study design and sample size are insufficient to quantify the impact of OAA initiation or OAA adherence on adherence to chronic medications. This pilot study and data analyses are being done in preparation for a larger, controlled study.

Being tested
Patient Reported Outcome Measure (PROM), Comprehensive Medication Review (CMR), Communications between oncology and primary care pharmacists
Medical subject headings
Leukemia, Myelogenous, Chronic, BCR-ABL Positive, Leukemia, Lymphocytic, Chronic, B-Cell, Multiple Chronic Conditions

What participants receive

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

  • Patient Reported Outcome Measure (PROM)Other

    Participants will complete a PROM (Michigan Oncology Quality Consortium, Patient Assessment Tool for Oral Chemotherapy) for their oral anticancer agent (OAA) at two timepoints over 2 months, to assess patient symptoms and adherence to OAA.

  • Comprehensive Medication Review (CMR)Other

    Following the first PROM, participants will be contacted by the primary care pharmacist for a Comprehensive Medication Review (CMR) for their chronic medications. If warranted, a follow-up CMR will take place after the second PROM.

  • Communications between oncology and primary care pharmacistsOther

    Throughout the study, the oncology and primary care pharmacists will communicate about medications through the electronic medical record.

What is being measured

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

  1. Dose-adjusted proportion of days covered (PDC) for oral anti-cancer agent (OAA)

    PDC is a common way to assess a patient's adherence to a medication regimen. PDC is the ratio of number of days the patient is supplied with OAA medication, from the time of OAA initiation until 6 months later, to the total number of days during that period. For OAAs, data from the electronic medical record (EMR) for dose changes will be aligned with the refill data to calculate a dose-adjusted PDC.

    Measured: Up to 6 months following OAA initiation

  2. PDC for chronic condition medications

    PDC is the ratio of the number of days the patient is supplied with chronic condition medications, from the time of OAA initiation until 6 months later, to the total number of days during that period.

    Measured: Up to 6 months following OAA initiation

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Percent of patients with two completed Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs)

    The Michigan Oncology Quality Consortium (MOQC) OAA PROM, Patient Assessment Tool for Oral Chemotherapy is to be completed at 2 and 6 weeks after OAA initiation. This measure assesses the percent of patients who complete this PROM at both time points.

    Measured: Up to day 42 (+/-3) after OAA initiation

  2. Percent of patients with completed Comprehensive Medication Reviews (CMRs)

    Completed CMR includes initial and follow-up CMR with primary care pharmacist.

    Measured: Day 50 (+/-3) after OAA initiation

  3. Percent of patients with scheduled Comprehensive Medication Review (CMR) within one week of first PROM result

    The PROM is scored within one day after it is completed by the patient. The primary care pharmacist sets a date and time for the initial CMR after receiving the first scored PROM.

    Measured: Day 22 (+/-3) after OAA initiation

  4. Percent of patients where oncology pharmacist reviewed PROM within 1 day of receiving scored PROM

    The PROM is scored within one day after it is completed by the patient and is routed to the oncology pharmacist to review the results. The number of PROMs that are reviewed within 1 day of receipt will be assessed at 2 weeks and at 6 weeks.

    Measured: Up to day 44 (+/-3) after OAA initiation

  5. Percent of CMRs where note was routed to oncology pharmacist

    The number of CMR where note was routed to oncology pharmacist out of total number of completed CMRs, assessed at 2 weeks and at 6 weeks.

    Measured: Up to day 43 (+/-3) after OAA initiation

  6. Percent of CMR notes that oncology pharmacist reviewed

    The number of CMR notes reviewed by the oncology pharmacist out of the total number of completed CMRs, assessed at 2 weeks and at 6 weeks.

    Measured: Up to day 44 (+/-3) after OAA initiation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Patient Reported Outcome Measure (PROM), Comprehensive Medication Review (CMR) and Communications between oncology and primary care pharmacists in people with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, run by University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center 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 6 inclusion and 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Nov 2022. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: accrual difficulties). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Dose-adjusted proportion of days covered (PDC) for oral anti-cancer agent (OAA) (time frame: Up to 6 months following OAA initiation). 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 22 Nov 2022.
