Mosaic Trial for Stem Cell Transplant Recipients

Mosaic: RCT of a Digital Health Intervention for English- and Spanish-speaking Stem Cell Transplant Recipients


Sponsor

Northwestern University

Enrollment

356 participants

Start Date

Apr 28, 2025

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using an intervention website (Mosaic) improves selected patient-reported outcomes in adult blood cancer patients undergoing allogeneic or autologous stem cell transplant, compared to using an educational website (control group). Patients will be recruited prior to their scheduled transplant, then randomized to use one of these two study websites throughout the study. They will complete five assessments during the study: one before transplant (baseline) and four after transplant (2, 4, 6, and 8 month follow-ups). The main questions this trial aims to answer are: 1. Compared to patients using the control group website, do patients using the intervention website report greater improvements in general psychological distress, cancer treatment-related distress, physical symptoms, and health-related quality of life? 2. Are these benefits at least partially explained by improvements in perceived preparedness, self-efficacy, and approach coping and/or reductions in avoidant coping and perceived stress? 3. Do some patients benefit more from using the intervention website than others? Specifically, we will examine whether patients' primary language (English/Spanish) and their initial psychological distress are related to the benefit they get from using the intervention website. We will also explore effects of sex, race, ethnicity, and transplant type.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is testing a website-based educational tool called Mosaic to help blood cancer patients prepare for stem cell transplant. The website provides information about what to expect before, during, and after transplant, and aims to reduce anxiety and improve quality of life. Researchers want to find out if patients who use Mosaic do better emotionally than those who don't. **You may be eligible if...** - You have been diagnosed with a blood cancer - You are scheduled for, or preparing to schedule, a stem cell transplant (either from your own cells or a donor) - You are 18 or older - You speak English or Spanish - You are interested in using a website to learn about the transplant process **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You are currently enrolled in another program targeting emotional distress or quality of life - You are undergoing the first of a planned two-part (tandem) stem cell transplant - You have severe cognitive or language difficulties that would prevent you from giving meaningful consent Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
