Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Sequential comparative prospective interventional study evaluating the impact of the use of an optimization device of the decision of cancer treatment on aggressiveness of end of life care. Comparison between a first period, period (A), of care as usual and a second period, period (B), of systematic and iterative use of a device for optimizing the decision to continue an anti-cancer treatment.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: Usual care
  • Other: Optimization of the medical decision
N/A

Detailed Description

We propose to study the optimization of this decision process in an advanced Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma (NSCLC) population, with a Performance Status (PS) ≥ 2 (median survival of approximately 3 months) piloting iteratively (before each decision to continue treatment) a process consisting of an evaluation framework (30 items to be answered by the oncologist with the patient), consolidating:

  1. clinical parameters;

  2. doctors' expectations regarding the continuation of anticancer treatment;

  3. patient expectations and preferences;

  4. the possibility of referring the patient to a supportive care specialist and strengthening home care.

The process triggers a dialogue between the patient and the oncologist, based on facts and seeks objectivity, ultimately allowing a shared decision.

In this prospective comparative study, the rate of systemic oncological treatment during the last month of life will be measured consecutively, over a period of usual management, followed by a period of systematic application of a process of optimization of the medical decision.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Percentage of patients receiving systemic anticancer treatment in their last days of life [24 months]

    Comparison of the percentage of patients receiving systemic anticancer treatment in their last 30 days of life during each period

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Percentage of chemotherapy [24 months]

    Percentage of chemotherapy (IV, oral) administered in the last 60, 30 and 14 days of life,

  2. Number of emergency room visits [24 months]

    Percentage of patients visiting emergency room visits more than once and of unplanned hospitalizations and intensive care admission in the last month of life.

  3. Percentage of initiation of a new line of chemotherapy [24 months]

    Percentage of initiation of a new line of chemotherapy (IV, oral) in the last month of life

  4. Percentage of immunotherapy and of Tyrosine kinase inhibitor [24 months]

    Percentage of immunotherapy and of Tyrosine kinase inhibitor in the last 60, 30 and 14 days of life.

  5. Percentage of initiation of Tyrosine kinase inhibitor or immunotherapy [24 months]

    Percentage of initiation of Tyrosine kinase inhibitor or immunotherapy in the last month of life.

  6. Use of supportive care [24 months]

    Frequency and precocity of use of supportive care.

  7. Overall survival (OS) [24 months]

    Overall survival (OS) defined as the time from the date of consent to the date of death due to any cause.

  8. Quality of life using QLQ-C15-PAL EORTC (European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer) and anxiety with HAD (Hospital Anxiety and Depression) questionnaire [24 months]

    The quality of Life in palliative cancer care patients will be collected with QLQ-C15-PAL EORTC scale and anxiety will be mesured with HAD scale.
