What this trial studies

PROACT is an observational cohort study designed to assess the implementation of integrated proactive supportive care pathways for cancer patients. The study focuses on measuring patient distress and supportive care needs using the NCCN Distress Thermometer over a 12-week period following an assessment. Secondary endpoints include evaluating the reach and diversity of the pathways, as well as their impact on overall health status, quality of life, symptom burden, anxiety, insomnia, and sexual health. The study aims to enhance the quality of care provided to cancer patients through structured supportive interventions.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with any histologically confirmed cancer who can provide informed consent and have received a supportive care needs assessment.

Not a fit: Patients who cannot provide written consent or do not understand or speak French may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could significantly reduce patient distress and improve overall quality of life for cancer patients.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown success in implementing supportive care pathways for cancer patients, indicating that this approach is promising and not entirely novel.
