ACTIVE NOT RECRUITING NA

Decision Aid for the Improvement of Decision-Making in Patients With Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

NCT04946279 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Study Summary

This clinical trial refines and tests the effect of a decision aid in improving decision-making in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Patients with cancer want to be informed about their diagnoses, treatment procedures and goals of treatment. They also seek active roles in decision-making. Shared decision-making (SDM) is the process of clinician and patient jointly participating in a health decision after discussing the options, benefits and harms, and considering the patient's values, preferences, and circumstances. SDM can improve patient involvement in decision making, satisfaction, health care quality, and quality of life. Decision aids can improve patient knowledge, create more realistic outcome expectations; reduce decisional conflict, distress, depression and uncertainty; and improve physician-patient communication and quality of life, compared with no decision aid. This trial's main aim is to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of a decision aid in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT04946279

The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT04946279 describes a study currently listed as active not recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 98 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is OHSU Knight Cancer Institute, which has 242 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.

The record links to 5 conditions, with Stage IV Lung Cancer AJCC v8 appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 3 interventions — of which Questionnaire Administration is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.

Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT04946279 reports 2 study locations spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Oregon. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
