Abstrakt: | Purpose: Patients with cancer often experience elevated levels of distress. This double-blind, randomized controlled trial compared the impact of an app-based version of cognitive behavioral stress management (CBSM) versus a health education sham app on anxiety and depression symptoms. Methods: Patients with nonmetastatic (stage I-III) cancer who were receiving or recently completed (≤6 months) systemic treatment were recruited nationwide. The primary outcome of change in anxiety symptoms (PROMIS-Anxiety) over 12 weeks and the top secondary outcome of change in depression symptoms (PROMIS-Depression) over 12 weeks were analyzed using mixed-effects modeling with repeated measures (weeks 0, 4, 8, 12). Patient global impressions of change in anxiety and depression were reported at weeks 4, 8, and 12. In addition, self-reported adverse events were collected throughout the study and adjudicated by the site principal investigator. Results: Four hundred forty-nine patients were enrolled in the trial (age M [standard deviation] = 52.44 [11.46]; 81% female; 76% White; 53% breast cancer). Patients randomly assigned to digitized CBSM showed significantly greater reductions in anxiety ( B = -0.03; P = .019) and depression ( B = -0.02; P = .042) symptoms over 12 weeks. Patients who received digitized CBSM were also significantly more likely to perceive much or very much improvement ( v no/minimal change or much/very much worse) in their symptoms of anxiety (χ 2 = 31.76; P < .001) and depression (χ 2 = 19.70; P < .001) compared with the control. Conclusion: The use of digitized CBSM led to significant improvements in anxiety and depression outcomes compared with the sham app. |
