Trial Outcomes & Findings for Internet-Delivered Positive Affect Program in Managing Emotion in Young Adult Cancer Survivors (NCT NCT02832154)

NCT ID: NCT02832154

Last Updated: 2020-07-16

Results Overview

Quantitative measures and interview will be used to quantify acceptability. The mean of participants responding affirmatively to the highest two responses from an intervention evaluation phone interview script created by investigators will be combined and exact 95% confidence intervals (CIs) will be calculated for these estimates. Participants were asked the following questions: On a scale of 0 to 10, with 0 being definitely not to 10 being definitely yes, to what extent would you recommend these skills to a friend? and To what extent would you recommend this intervention to someone newly diagnosed with cancer?

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: At 12 weeks

Population: Only 26 participants out of the 43 were analyzed for acceptability for this outcome.

Quantitative measures and interview will be used to quantify acceptability. The mean of participants responding affirmatively to the highest two responses from an intervention evaluation phone interview script created by investigators will be combined and exact 95% confidence intervals (CIs) will be calculated for these estimates. Participants were asked the following questions: On a scale of 0 to 10, with 0 being definitely not to 10 being definitely yes, to what extent would you recommend these skills to a friend? and To what extent would you recommend this intervention to someone newly diagnosed with cancer?

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: At 12 weeks

Population: Only 26 participants out of the 43 were analyzed for acceptability for this outcome.

Quantitative measures and interview will be used to quantify acceptability. The proportion of participants responding affirmatively to the highest two responses from an intervention evaluation phone interview script created by investigators will be combined and exact 95% confidence intervals (CIs) will be calculated for these estimates. Responding affirmatively means a score of 9 or 10 on the scale of 0-10, so the proportion responding affirmatively is the proportion of patients who responded with a 9 or 10 to those questions. Participants were asked the following questions: On a scale of 0 to 10, with 0 being definitely not to 10 being definitely yes, to what extent would you recommend these skills to a friend? and To what extent would you recommend this intervention to someone newly diagnosed with cancer?

Timeframe: Up to 19 months

Accrual will be estimated as the number of patients accrued divided by the number of months of accrual. A 95% confidence interval for the monthly accrual rate will be calculated based on the Poisson distribution.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: At 8 week

Retention will be defined as the proportion of patients who provide 8 week data. Patients who discontinue the intervention (refuse phone calls) but complete the outcome assessments will be counted in the numerator for calculating retention. Retention estimates will be calculated overall and by site
