Trial Outcomes & Findings for Socio-legal Services for Underserved Populations Through Patient Navigation to Optimize Resources During Treatment (NCT NCT02232074)
NCT ID: NCT02232074
Last Updated: 2019-10-15
Results Overview
The receipt of timely care will be defined as initiation of care within 90 days, as this the shortest delay that has been shown to consistently affect mortality The time element was calculated from date of diagnosis (Time0) to date of treatment initiation (Time1) .The date chosen for the Time1 variable depends on the recommended care plan for each patient, as derived from the chart abstraction and based on patient presentation.

Patient needs were assessed through patient interviews utilizing the Cancer Needs Distress Inventory (CaNDI) instrument. The CaNDI is a 38-item self-report instrument that rates need and distress level in the past two weeks using a 5 -point Likert scale where 1=not a problem to 5=very severe problem. For this analysis, the mean total score is reported with the minimum value=1 and the maximum value=4.10. Lower values are more favorable.

The number of Breast Intervention participants decreased by 52 to 52 and the Control participants decreased by 41 to 52 due to missing Patient Satisfaction data at 6 month follow up
Patient's satisfaction assessed through the Patient Satisfaction with Interpersonal Relationship with Navigator Measure (PSN-1) questionnaire. Each question of the 9-item instrument has a 5 point Likert scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). Responses are summed for a total score. The higher the score, the higher patient's satisfaction with navigation. The minimum value=9 and the maximum value=45. Higher values are more favorable.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: 6 months post-enrollmentPopulation: Within each cancer group (breast \& lung cancers analyzed separately), a linear regression was used to test whether there was an association between the intervention \& control groups in self-efficacy at six months post-enrollment, adjusting for baseline CASE Cancer score.
Self-Efficacy will be assessed through patient interviews utilizing the Communication and Attitudinal Self-Efficacy (CASE). The CASE is a 12-item instrument that rates self-efficacy in three domains: (1) seeking and obtaining information, (2) understanding and participating in care, and (3) maintaining a positive attitude. Total scores range from 12 to 48. A higher score is more favorable, indicating a positive attitude and strong self-efficacy.
