Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of PRORECECA is to test whether adding weekly active patient-reported outcomes to the treatment of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma can improve patient-reported physical function.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

PRORECECA is a two-armed randomized controlled trial for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma initiating 1st or 2nd line of standard therapy.

Patients will be randomized to either receiving questions from Patient-Reported Outcomes Version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (PRO-CTCAE™) with a specifically developed alert-algorithm and the European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) or receiving standard procedure regarding side effect registration and handling.

The hypothesis is that weekly active patient-reported outcomes in the intervention group can improve physical function 30% compared to the group who receive standard care and standard handling of side effects.

A total of 174 patients will be included with 87 patients in each arm.

Primary endpoint is physical function reported by the patient after 3 months of treatment. The patients will assess their physical function by completing the EORTC QLQ-C30.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Patient-reported outcomes arm (experimental arm)

This arm will be assigned to intervention by weekly electronic reporting of symptoms and side effects in an app. A specifically developed alert-algorithm will in real-time guide the patient to adjust supportive care or contact the hospital.

The reported symptoms are sent to the hospital to a healthcare professional - depending on the severity of the reported symptoms the healthcare professional can schedule a visit at the clinic.

The patient will also receive a health-related quality of life questionnaire (European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire) including the Physical Function domain in the app each month.

Patient satisfaction regarding the patient-reported outcomes will be measured with the validated Patient-Reported Experience Measurement questionnaire at termination of participation.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Electronic patient-reported outcomes regarding symptoms and health-related quality of life

Intervention Type DEVICE

Weekly reporting of patient-reported outcomes for closer contact between patient and clinic between treatment cycles.

The supportive care (including drugs) is similar in the two treatment arms except for the use of electronic patient-reported outcomes.

Standard of care

This arm will continue standard procedure regarding side effect registration and handling.

The patients will receive a health-related quality of life questionnaire (European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire, EORTC QOL-C30) at baseline, after 1, 3, and 6 months of participation in the study.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
