DeADT-LW Trial Summary

This trial is comparing two different approaches to reduce unnecessary use of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer patients. One approach is using a reminder order check, while the other approach involves providing

Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthcare providers who prescribe ADT (androgen deprivation therapy) to prostate cancer patients at participating sites. Providers who choose not to participate in the study are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The DeADT trial is testing two strategies aimed at reducing unnecessary use of ADT in prostate cancer care: a clinical reminder order check versus a provider script/patient education approach, assessing which is more effective after six months.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on implementation strategies rather than direct patient interventions, it does not directly involve medication or treatment side effects.

DeADT-LW Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Provider Script (Sc)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Study staff will enter an electronic health record progress note approximately one business day prior to a target low-value ADT clinic visit from a patient already receiving ADT. The note will include scripted talking points for the provider participant to help with discussion and recent PSA levels and can be edited, signed, or deleted by the provider, giving a quick and simple way to document the discussion. The progress note will prompt provider participants to indicate whether a patient prefers to continue or discontinue ADT. The progress note will include links to a patient-facing clinic handout which will be posted on an external website. Provider participants may modify, ignore, or delete the progress note.
Group II: ADT Order Check Attestation (Or)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Study staff will place a "Living Well ADT" health factor in the electronic medical record for patients already receiving ADT, and whose clinic visits the study team have confirmed to be targets for ADT de-implementation. Health factors will be entered as eligible clinic visits are identified. This health factor combined with a low PSA level (most recent PSA < 2) will trigger the ADT Order Check Attestation Intervention (Or) when the provider participant places an order for ADT (e.g., Lupron, Eligard, Goserelin, and Zoladex). Provider participants may override the order check by entering text indicating the reason and continue with the ordering process.
Group III: ControlActive Control1 Intervention
The study team will match up to 8 sites (i.e., medical centers) to the 4 randomized sites as contemporary controls where no interventions have been deployed to compare the primary outcome of interruption of low-value ADT injections. Low-value ADT injections, eligible clinic visits, and primary outcomes for a matched 6-month period will be ascertained through chart review and compared to intervention site primary outcomes.
