Brief Title: Electronic Patient Reported Outcomes in Patients With Gastrointestinal Cancers
Official Title: Electronic Patient Reported Outcomes in Patients With Gastrointestinal Cancers at Risk for Unplanned ED Visits and Hospitalizations
Study ID: NCT05359042
Brief Summary: This is a randomized trial of patients with gastrointestinal (GI) cancers treated at University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) who are starting a new line of systemic therapy to evaluate the feasibility of electronic patient reported outcome (ePRO) platform.
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the feasibility of the ePRO platform by describing the proportion of participants who engage with the ePRO tool via virtual care chat at least once after enrollment. II. To investigate the potential differences in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) by comparing the change in overall score of EuroQol five-dimensional Questionnaire (EQ-5D) index. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the degree of engagement with virtual care chat as defined by the proportion of chat modules completed. II. To measure the potential differences in health-related quality of life (HRQoL). III. To describe the symptom experience of participants in the intervention arm. IV. To evaluate the performance of clinical escalation rules and impact on clinic workflow and efficiency. V. To prospectively validate a risk model predicting emergency department (ED) visits and admissions due to cancer treatment side effects. EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare unplanned ED visits and hospitalizations between intervention arm and control arm. II. To compare referral patterns to Symptom Management Clinic. III. To compare concordance between participant self-reported and provider assigned Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status.
