Brief Summary

Patients surviving with advanced prostate cancer frequently encounter time points in their disease course that require choosing among multiple options regarding systemic therapy. Interventions to improve shared decision-making through patient support measures such as question listing, and audio recording and summarizing of consultations have been shown to improve patient-reported measures of decision making quality, e.g. decreased decisional conflict and regret. However, the feasibility of consultation recording and summarizing with mobile health (mHealth) technology on patient-owned smartphones is unknown. The investigators will conduct a single-arm trial to determine feasibility and acceptability of a clinician-prompted, patient administered smartphone audio recording application and a service to summarize the recordings (Patient Support Corps or PSC), in improving decision-making quality among patients with chemotherapy-naive, progressive, metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). This trial will inform the design and conduct of a larger trial evaluating broader scale implementation of this intervention.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Proportion of enrolled participants who utilized the application

    Proportion of enrolled participants who create a complete audio consultation recording of the appointment using the application, measured by application metrics, at 1 week post-consultation along with 95% confidence interval will be reported.

    Up to 2 weeks after the appointment

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Proportion of enrolled participants who listened to audio recording within 1 week after the visit

    Up to 2 weeks after the appointment

  • Proportion of enrolled participants who obtain written summary of the consultation

    Up to 2 weeks after the appointment

  • Mean participant-reported CollaboRATE scores

    Up to 2 weeks after the appointment

  • Mean score of participant reported Decision Regret Scale (DRS)

    Up to 2 weeks after the appointment

  • Mean change in scores on the Informed subscale of the Decisional Conflict Scale (DCS) from baseline

    Baseline and up to 2 weeks after the appointment

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Patient Decision Support

EXPERIMENTAL

Instructions will be provided for installation and use of a smartphone recording app 7-60 days before an oncology consultation. Participants will share the recording with the Patient Support Corps (PSC), who will summarize the recording, send it to the participant's oncologist for review, then return an annotated summary to the participant within a week of the consultation.

Other: Medcorder

Interventions

Medcorder is a smartphone app that is HIPAA compliant for the use of on patient recordings of consults with healthcare providers.
