Treatment and study plan

Family-Centered Communication Intervention

Behavioral

A novel family-centered communication intervention designed to facilitate communication among Young Adult Cancer Survivors (YA-CCS), their chosen support person, and clinicians through collaboration between the clinic and a community-based organization. The intervention includes pre-visit and post-visit sessions delivered by a community health worker and timed around a standard-of-care survivorship clinic visit.

Primary outcomes

  1. Proportion of invited young adult cancer survivor-support person dyads enrolled

    Time frame: From recruitment initiation through completion of study enrollment, up to 24 months

    Feasibility assessed by the proportion of invited dyads who enroll in the study.

  2. Proportion of enrolled young adult cancer survivors completing all intervention components

    Time frame: From intervention initiation through intervention completion, up to 3 weeks

    Feasibility assessed by the proportion of enrolled young adult cancer survivor participants who complete all intervention components.

  3. Mean Theoretical Framework of Acceptability questionnaire score

    Time frame: Post-intervention, within 2 months after intervention completion

    Acceptability assessed using participant-reported Theoretical Framework of Acceptability (TFA) questionnaire scores. Scores range from 1-5, with higher scores indicating greater acceptability.

  4. Mean Satisfaction With Visit Preparation questionnaire score

    Time frame: Post-intervention, within 2 months after intervention completion

    Acceptability assessed using participant-reported Satisfaction With Visit Preparation questionnaire scores. Scores range from -10 to 10, with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction.
