Study Summary

The program will provide Advocacy and Support for Black patients with advanced-stage cancer in the Pittsburgh area. The goals are to: 1) provide a community-based, trained companion to journey alongside the patient with advanced cancer, 2) to help the individual explore meaning and create legacy, 3); offer support and navigation for practical needs of illness (e.g., financial assistance for food and housing, accessing and affording medications, transportation); and 4) to provide support and connection for the bereaved family/friends, including facilitating community connections for routine health screenings and access to mental health services, as needed.

Primary Outcome

IPOS (Integrated Palliative care Outcome Scale) is a measure of symptoms and concerns which matter to a patient and helps us provide the best care. IPOS forms to identify how we can best support the individual. There are 10 questions scored on a scale of 1-4, which assess a patient's symptoms and needs with regards to physical, social, psychological and spiritual. Higher scores indicate greater patient need for supportive care.
