Breast Cancer Clinical Trial
A Quality of Life Intervention (Y-AMBIENT) for Young African American With Stage I-III Breast Cancer
Summary
This clinical trial studies the use of a quality of life intervention called Y-AMBIENT to help young African American with stage I-III breast cancer manage daily life. Y-AMBIENT is a four-month, telephone-based intervention that includes three themed education sessions with three follow-up sessions, written materials, and videos. The Y-AMBIENT intervention may improve quality of life and other health-related outcomes in young African American breast cancer survivors.
Full Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Evaluate feasibility and acceptability of Y-AMBIENT and enhanced usual care among young African American breast cancer survivors.
II. Explore the degree to which the Y-AMBIENT versus (vs.) enhanced usual care affects preliminary health-related outcomes among young African American (AA survivors).
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I (Y-AMBIENT): Patients receive three themed education sessions over 1 hour each, written materials, and videos at month 1. Patients also participate in 3, 20 minutes telephone reinforcement calls to discuss how they are doing and discuss any concerns that they are still managing at months 2, 3, and 4.
ARM II (ENHANCED USUAL CARE): Patients receive usual care at month 1. Patients also participate in 3, 20 minutes telephone reinforcement calls to discuss their chemotherapy regimen at months 2, 3, and 4.
After completion of study, patients are followed up at 1 month.
