Study summary

The central hypothesis is that a peer coach-delivered intervention that includes cognitive behavioral principles combined with theory-driven patient education will improve health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP). The goal of this behavioral and educational intervention, RISE-HP, is to improve health-related quality of life in people who have hypersensitivity pneumonitis and assess feasibility and accessibility of this intervention.

Patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) experience uncertainty, feelings of anxiety and depression, and marked disruption to their lifestyle and home environment. Poor health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in HP is also driven in part by patients' profound lack of knowledge about the disease. Existing interventions for patients with HP do not target improvement in quality of life. Participants will complete either RISE-HP, a 10-session peer coach delivered behavioral and educational intervention to improve HRQOL in HP, or Staying Well, a 10-session general health education program.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Re-imagining Interventions for Support and Education in Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis (RISE-HP)

    Participants will complete RISE-HP, 10-week peer-coach delivered, behavioral and educational intervention to improve quality of life among patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis. This intervention will also utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, reframing negative thoughts into positive thoughts and actions.

    Behavioral: Re-imagining Interventions for Support and Education in Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis (RISE-HP)

  • Other
    Attention Control

    Participants will complete a 10-week general health education program, "Staying Well", that will discuss topics like eating healthy and cholesterol. This program will be delivered by a member of the research team.

    Behavioral: Staying Well

Interventions

  • BehavioralRe-imagining Interventions for Support and Education in Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis (RISE-HP)

    The RISE-HP intervention consists of three components: peer support (peer coach), cognitive restructuring, and patient education. It consists of 10 weekly one-on-one meetings with a peer coach (a person with lived experience with HP who has been trained to deliver the content of the RISE-HP intervention to another person with HP). The RISE-HP intervention delivered by peer coaches using the principles of cognitive behavioral therapy combined with theory driven patient education targets the health-related quality of life of patients living with hypersensitivity pneumonitis.

  • BehavioralStaying Well

    The Staying Well intervention consists of 12 weeks of educational sessions. The participants can choose the 10 education sessions out of the 12 they want to cover with the research assistant. Participants will meet weekly with the research coordinator for an estimated 30-45 minutes per session.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Attrition Rate

    Time frame: up to 10 weeks

  2. Attendance rate

    Time frame: up to 10 weeks

  3. Retention rate

    Time frame: up to 10 weeks

  4. Implementation Survey

    Assesses feasibility and acceptability. A 5-point Likert scale written based on CFIR framework. The overall score will be calculated by adding individual scores for the items. Lower scores will indicate lower acceptability, appropriateness, or feasibility of the intervention and higher scores will indicate better acceptability, appropriateness, or feasibility of the intervention.

    Time frame: Week 10

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in the Kings Brief Interstitial Lung Disease Questionnaire (KBILD)

    The KBILD is a self-completed health status questionnaire that comprises 15 items and a seven-point Likert response scale. It has three domains: psychological, breathlessness and activities and chest symptoms. The KBILD domain and total score ranges are 0-100; 100 represents best health status.

    Time frame: baseline, week 5

  2. Change in the Kings Brief Interstitial Lung Disease Questionnaire (KBILD)

    The KBILD is a self-completed health status questionnaire that comprises 15 items and a seven-point Likert response scale.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
