Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (14)
Patient survey: Proportion of patients treated with belatacept who are aware of the existence of the PAC
At patient enrolment
Patient survey : Proportion of patients treated with belatacept who have received the PAC
At patient enrolment
Patient survey : Proportion of patients who have utilised the PAC, and the extent of its use
At patient enrolment
Patient survey: Levels of patient knowledge and comprehension related to the important identified risks of belatacept treatment
At patient enrolment
Patient survey: HCP-patient communication based on responses to specific questions
At patient enrolment
Patient survey: Proportion of patients with correct responses to behavioral questions
At patient enrolment
Patient survey: Mean scores for correct responses for questions grouped by objectives
Objectives: distribution, awareness, utility, utilization and knowledge
At patient enrolment
HCP survey: Proportion of HCPs who prescribe or administer belatacept in nephrology centres who are aware of the PAC
Day 1
HCP survey: Proportion of HCPs who have utilised the PAC, and the extent of its use
Day 1
HCP survey: Levels of HCPs' knowledge and comprehension related to the important identified risks of infections and the need to screen for specific infection prior to initiating or administering belatacept
The percentage of HCPs with responses to each question in the HCP questionnaire that would indicate effectiveness of the PAC will be determined: who are aware of the PAC, use the PAC, level of knowledge and comprehension of the risks and mean scores for correct responses
Day 1
HCP survey: Behavior of HCPs based on responses to behavioral questions
Day 1
HCP survey: Mean total score for correct responses
Day 1
HCP survey: Mean scores for correct responses for questions grouped by objectives
Objectives: distribution, awareness, utility, utilization and knowledge
Day 1
Retrospective chart review study (clinical outcome study): Proportion of serious infections
Upto 4 years
Secondary Outcomes (7)
Major determinants of patients knowledge of the key messages contained in the belatacept PAC based on data collected in the patient questionnaire
At patient enrolment
Major determinants of understanding the key messages contained in the PAC based on data collected in the patient questionnaire
At patient enrolment
Major determinants of implementation regarding the key messages contained in the PAC based on data collected in the patient questionnaire
At patient enrolment
Determinants of Health Care Professional (HCP) understanding and implementation regarding key messages contained in the PAC based on data collected in the patient questionnaire
Day 1
Retrospective chart review study (clinical outcome study) : proportion of infections leading to discontinuation
Upto 4 years
- +2 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (3)
