Study Summary

This trial will compare two self-management programs to see which is more effective for colorectal cancer patients. It's led by occupational therapists with doctoral training.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who've had Stage I-III colorectal cancer in the last year, are willing to improve at least one lifestyle risk factor like diet or exercise, and can speak English. They should have moderate to low adherence to healthy behaviors but can't be planning major cancer treatments within 6 months or have stage IV cancers.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares two types of self-management training programs for colorectal cancer patients: a personalized program (PSMT) and a standardized one (SSMT). Each patient will undergo a 6-week course led by specialized occupational therapists to see if PSMT leads to better health behavior adherence.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves self-management training rather than medication, traditional side effects aren't expected. However, participants may experience stress or discomfort from lifestyle changes such as new diets or exercise routines.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
To compare the difference in WCRF/AICR score between the intervention (RISE-PSMT) and control (SSMT) groups.
Secondary outcome measures
The difference in general self-efficacy between the two groups after the 6-week self-management program will be measured by Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Systems (PROMIS) Item Bank v1.0 - General Self-Efficacy Short Form 4a.
To assess percent change across the various component scores on the WCRF/AICR (e.g. grams of fiber) to better understand what might be driving any changes in the overall WCRF/AICR composite score.
To evaluate the difference in health-related quality of life between the two groups after completion of the self-management program, we will use the PROMIS Scale v1.2 - Global Health questionnaire .

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Is RISE-PSMT a viable option for individuals in terms of safety?

"Our team at Power rated RISE-PSMT with a safety score of 2 since it is only in Phase 2, so there are some studies that prove its safety but none confirming efficacy."

Answered by AI
