Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This early phase I trial investigates enhanced, electronic health record (EHR)-facilitated cancer system control. Cancer and its treatment are often associated with severe, disabling symptoms that have been causally linked to diminished survival, increased healthcare utilization, degraded quality of life, unemployment, and non-adherence to recommended cancer treatments. Collaborative case management for control of moderate or worse sleep disturbance, pain, anxiety, depression, fatigue (SPADE symptoms), and physical dysfunction among cancer survivors and patients with cancer may improve quality of life, symptom severity, and adherence to cancer treatment, and may also reduce need for acute care.

- Other: Interview
- Other: Quality-of-Life Assessment
- Other: Questionnaire Administration
Primary outcomes (2)
- measure
- Sleep Disturbance, Pain, Anxiety, Depression, Fatigue (SPADE) Symptom Scores.
- timeFrame
- Up to 46 months (beginning from a participants' index medical oncology encounter until death, last clinical encounter, or end of study)
- description
- Measured by 11-point Numeric Rating Scales (NRS) for sleep disturbance, pain, anxiety, depression, fatigue, and physical function impairment at clinic encounters. Symptoms were assessed on a scale of 0 to 10 with higher scores indicating worse outcomes. Changes in sleep disturbance, pain, anxiety, depression, fatigue, and physical function impairment from baseline score were modeled jointly as a co-primary outcome.
