Study Summary

This trial will design a care pathway to help COPD patients get evidence-based care, and measure if it reduces hospitalization risk.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people who may have COPD and are undergoing or have had immunotherapy for any cancer, or healthcare providers working in oncology or with COPD patients. Participants must understand and consent to the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study aims to create a care pathway for managing COPD in community oncology clinics. It involves surveys and interviews (Arm A) to develop this pathway, setting up for a future randomized controlled trial.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention includes surveys and interviews rather than medical treatments, there are no direct physical side effects associated with participating in this clinical trial.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Number of Participants that Agree the COPD Pathway is Feasible - Feasibility Implementation Measure (FIM)
Secondary outcome measures
Number of Barriers Identified to the Implementation of a COPD Intervention for Community Oncology Clinics
Number of Clinics Ready to Adopt the COPD Care Pathway - Organizational Readiness for Implementing Change (ORIC)
Number of Participants to Find the COPD Care Pathway Acceptable - Acceptability Implementation Measure (AIM).

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Arm B - Participants only COPD Care PathwayExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Investigators will use the COPD care pathway developed by Arm A as the intervention in single-arm pilot study to test its feasibility and other implementation outcomes.
Group II: Aim A - Participants and ProvidersExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Arm A will use the user-centered design process to survey pulmonology content experts, oncology providers, and patients and interview a smaller subset. Specifically, we will measure the perceived efficacy of various components of COPD management using a survey of patients with thoracic cancer and oncology providers.
