Detailed Description

This two-arm, parallel group-randomized research study is to test a new communication tool (CASI) for people with ovarian cancer, caregivers, and clinicians. This is a pilot feasibility study, which means this is the first time researchers are studying CASI. Clinicians will be randomized into one of the two study groups, Arm 1 or Arm 2, and patients and caregivers will be enrolled in the study arm to which their clinician has been randomized. The research study procedures include screening for eligibility, audio recorded clinic visits, and questionnaires. Participation in this research study is expected to last for up to 12 weeks for patients and caregivers, and for up to 52 weeks for clinicians. It is expected that up to 112 people will take part in this research study, including up to 50 patients, 50 caregivers, and 12 clinicians (six dyads). The National Institute for Nursing Research is supporting this research by providing funding.
