NCT05947695

Brief Summary

The purpose of the randomized control trial is to estimate the effect of an oncology clinical nurse specialist-led early intervention multidisciplinary approach to palliative and survivorship care within two previously identified and validated patient groups having metastatic solid tumor malignancy on patient-reported symptom burden, patient-reported overall quality of life (QOL), distress, and overall survival. The primary hypothesis is that the effect of an oncology clinical nurse specialist- led early intervention multidisciplinary palliative and survivorship care model will be significantly higher, as compared to the standard of care approach to palliative and survivorship care, on the primary endpoint of patient-reported symptom burden for patients with metastatic solid tumor malignancy within favorable and very favorable risk groups. Symptom burden includes pain, tiredness, drowsiness, nausea, lack of appetite, depression, anxiety, shortness of breath, and wellbeing.

Study Arms (2)

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

The oncology nurse-specialist-led multidisciplinary early intervention arm includes standard of care with additional coordination of services, patient education, and referral to treatment and other resources aligned with comprehensive best practice models for multidisciplinary care teams.

Behavioral: Palliative and Survivorship Care Model

Standard of Care

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The standard of care comparator arm is usual clinical care using NCCN guidelines and evidence-based practice for palliative and survivorship care for patients treated with distant metastases.
