Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: An orientation and patient education program and telephone counseling may help improve the quality of life in patients with peritoneal surface malignancies.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial studies quality of life and survivorship care in patients undergoing surgery and chemotherapy for peritoneal surface malignancies.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
  1. Assess feasibility of instituting an orientation program, brief follow up care and phone calls in this patient population.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
  1. Reduce pre-treatment distress and anxiety. II. Improve pre-treatment self-efficacy. III. Provide educational material delivered by the SRB. IV. Improve overall post-operative QOL ratings at 3 months, relative to discharge.
OUTLINE:

Patients and their caregiver(s) receive a hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) orientation with a Survivorship Navigator (SN) over 90 minutes following their initial surgical consult. Patients then receive telephone calls over 20-30 minutes from the SN once weekly for 3 weeks prior to HIPEC. . After HIPEC, patients meet with the SN for 20-30 minutes to discuss adjustments and adaptation to the surgery and hospitalization 3-4 days post-HIPEC, biweekly for two weeks, and weekly thereafter until hospital discharge. After hospital discharge, patients receive telephone calls from the SN twice monthly for 1 month.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Arm I

Patients and their caregiver(s) receive a hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) orientation with a Survivorship Navigator (SN) over 90 minutes following their initial surgical consult. Patients then receive telephone calls over 20-30 minutes from the SN once weekly for 3 weeks prior to HIPEC. After HIPEC, patients meet with the SN for 20-30 minutes to discuss adjustments and adaptation to the surgery and hospitalization 3-4 days post-HIPEC, biweekly for two weeks and weekly thereafter until hospital discharge. After hospital discharge, patients receive telephone calls from the SN twice monthly for 1 month.

Behavioral: HIPEC Orientation
Introduction to SRB (survivorship resource book); Clinic Tour; Lunch with Question and Answer Session
Other Names:
  • orientation
  • Behavioral: Consultation with Survivorship Navigator
    Weekly psychosocial support via phone from Survivorship Navigator for 3 weeks prior to HIPEC; Inpatient consults occurring 3 to 4 days post-HIPEC and biweekly for 2 weeks and weekly until hospital discharge; Post-Hospital Discharge consults via phone twice per month for one month
    Other Names:
  • Consultation
  • Other: Questionnaires
    Questionnaires Completed at 4 time points: T1 pre-HIPEC orientation, T2 with in 1 week of orientation, T3 1 month post HIPEC and T4 3 months post HIPEC. Questionnaires include Utility of SRB, Medical Outcomes Study Health Survey, Short Form (SF-12), Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D), The Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire, The Distress Thermometer, The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Assess feasibility of instituting an orientation program, brief follow up care and phone calls in this patient population [Baseline to 3 months post discharge]

      Utility of SRB, Medical Outcomes Study Health Survey, Short Form (SF-12), Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D), The Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire, The Distress Thermometer, The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Reduce pre-treatment distress and anxiety [Pre-HIPEC to Day 0]

      Compared t-tests will be conducted for the CESD and STAI (state anxiety subscale).

    2. Improve pre-treatment self-efficacy [Pre-HIPEC to Day 0]

      Mean scores on the distress thermometer will be compared as well as individual patient changes.

    3. Provide educational material delivered by the SRB [Pre-HIPEC to Day 0]

      Form to assess utility of the Survivorship Resource Book

    4. Improve overall post-operative QOL ratings at 3 months, relative to discharge [3 months post discharge]

      Improve post-operative QOL ratings at 3 months, relative to discharge. Repeated measures analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) will be utilized with the FACT scales.
