Creation of an Infrastructure to Support Delivery of mHealth Interventions for Cancer Patients

Despite the deleterious impact of smoking upon cancer treatment outcomes, smoking prevalence remains alarmingly high among cancer patients. Thus, reducing smoking by cancer patients is a public health priority, but treatments to date have demonstrated limited efficacy. Mobile health (mHealth) interventions have the potential to improve treatment efficacy while also greatly extending reach. The goal of this infrastructure proposal is to build a resource to facilitate the creation of mHealth tools that address the tobacco treatment needs of cancer patients. This resource, which will be available to researchers throughout Florida, would fill a critical gap in mHealth capacity.

Treatment and study plan

Quitline Treatment (QT)

Other

Tobacco Free Florida Quitline. 10-week supply of Combination Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT).

App-based Treatment (mHealth)

Other

Fully automated digitally-delivered smoking cessation intervention targeted to cancer patients. 10-week supply of Combination Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT).

Primary outcomes

  1. Feasibility: Screening

    Time frame: At Baseline

    Our screening process will be deemed feasible if: 1) ≥ 90% of patients complete the screener, 2) the proportion of patients identified as smokers meets or exceeds the historical self-reported proportions at each institution, 3) the program correctly identifies eligible participants and subsequently presents automated advice to quit, 4) it offers an opportunity to enroll in smoking cessation treatment, and 5) ≥ 30% of eligible patients enroll in treatment.

  2. Usability: mHealth

    Time frame: Up to 6 Months

    Usability will be measured 2 ways: I) ≥ 80% will score ≥ 70 on the Systems Usability Scale (SUS), 10-item measure, (scores 0-100) assessing learnability and usability. II) ≥ 80% rate app as easy to use (dichotomous Y/N).

  3. Acceptability/Satisfaction: mHealth

    Time frame: Up to 6 Months

    Acceptability/Satisfaction will be measured 4 ways: I) ≥ 80 will score mean ≥ 3.0 Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ), 8-item measure, (1-4 scale). II) ≥ 80% mostly or extremely satisfied with app. III) ≥ 80% would recommend this app to a friend to quit smoking (dichotomous Y/N). IV) ≥ 80% rate quality of intervention as good or excellent.
