Web-Based Program in Helping Patients With Head and Neck Cancer Adhere to Swallowing Exercises and Coping Strategies

Study Description
Brief Summary:
This phase II trial studies how well a web-based program called Project Prepare works in helping patients with head and neck cancer adhere to swallowing and trismus exercises and coping strategies. Head and neck cancer patients who receive radiation therapy are at risk for permanent swallowing disorders and other side effects. Because of these potential problems, swallowing exercises and coping strategies are important parts of recovery. A web-based program designed to increase adherence to preventive exercises may help patients with head and neck cancer ameliorate the long-term effects of radiation therapy.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Throat Carcinoma Other: Internet-Based Intervention Other: Quality-of-Life Assessment Other: Questionnaire Administration Phase 2

Detailed Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To determine the impact of a web-based adherence program (PREPARE) on self-reported swallowing function in head and neck cancer patients during radiation.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To determine community participant adherence to targeted swallowing and trismus exercises delivered by the PREPARE website video demonstrations.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:

I. To promote the long-term dissemination of the Dysphagia Prevention program through measurement of patient satisfaction and engagement metrics, training and continual feedback between the MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC) research site and community collaborative research sites.

OUTLINE:

Patients use the password-protected Project Prepare website on a computer, tablet, or phone over 10 weeks to view: videos of the swallowing and trismus exercises, tips and stories from former patients, what to expect each week of treatment, recipes and cooking demonstrations, how to take care of their teeth during treatment, strategies for stress relief, and strategies for dry mouth and nausea. This website is designed to reach underserved populations who do not have ready access to specialized preventive care.

After completion of study, patients are followed up at 6 months.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Changes in self-reported swallowing function [ Time Frame: Baseline up to 6 months post-radiation ]
    Assessed with the MD Anderson Dysphagia Inventory (MDADI). Will first test for changes in self-reported swallowing function outcome with the MDADI between baseline and follow-up using one-tailed paired t-tests. Correlations and multivariate analyses regressing self-reported adherence to exercises against self-reported swallowing function will be analyzed similarly and appropriately.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Website usage data [ Time Frame: Up to 6 months post-radiation ]
    Piwik analytics will be used to record usage data regarding patient engagement with the website (e.g. whether the patient looked at the website that week, number of minutes and number of navigations and pages visited).
